RMON gives you a lot more network traffic information than SNMP does. With
FULL RMON capabilities you can even sniff packets of the interface save them
and send them to a remote analyst station. There is definetly some overlap
but RMON is more powerful if you want to troubleshoot specific traffic
problems.

Have a look at www.netscout.com for more info on RMON and its applications

Please pardon my ignorance.

Why did Cisco invent RMON?

SNMP seems to do exactly the same job (i.e. it provides information on all
aspects of the network).

I must be missing something ...
