This is my humble opinion: During my last consulting work, I left enabled only the VMWare collector for the ESX hosts because that's the only way to gather those from the ESX. Because all the VMs have SNMP installed, the customer explicitly requested to disable the data collection through vCenter, and here is why: There are hundreds of metrics with hundreds of graph templates that are not useful when looking at them that are part of the current default configuration. I think that having a few well defined and carefully selected sets of metrics with useful set of graph templates is better than all the available metrics on the vCenter with just a simple graph template with almost no description on them.
