Answering this question separately, it works quite well, as long as the 
exporting devices provide quality flow telemetry (Cisco pre-Sup2T/-DFC4 6500s & 
7600s have severe NetFlow limitations, as do pre-Sup7 4500s).  

If you're just getting started with flow telemetry, I'd urge you to try out 
some of the various open-source collection/analysis tools such as nfdump/nfsen, 
nProbe, and so forth.  You'll gain valuable operational experience by doing so, 
and will gain a good grasp of the capabilities and usefulness of flow telemetry.
