I just don't see the point of Observium (paid) when you can run totally free software that is more full featured and actively developed by large ISPs:
OpenNMS - is used as the primary alerting/NMS system for some very large tier 1 and 2 ISPs Cacti - get it set up right with 60 second polling and properly sized/stepped RRDs, and you can use it to chart things with any arbitrary non-NMS datasource via shell scripts. Grafana - pull data from a time series database like OpenTSDB and graph it. I don't rely on one but rather run cacti and opennms for everything. OpenNMS handles the alerts and availability monitoring, cacti graphs layer 1 and 2 parameters (optical DOM and RF variables) and layer 3 IP traffic interfaces.
