Just wanted to add one more tool to make this threat complete.
See Opmanager at

The free edition is really nice if you have a small network to monitor.

Try OpenNMS. Nagios and Zabbix can also do historical data, although I'm not sure about SNMP. I've tried using both and by dar, I feel that OpenNMS is easier to work with. The installation of Tomcat and Java is the hardest item. I do know that OpenNMS can do SNMP. Pretty much, I give OpenNMS the IP address and it finds the common services. You may have to go in and define custom services (I had to since my Oracle servers have multiple listener ports). It will try the default SNMP string, but if you change it, there is a web form to change it. You can also enter your asset information through the web form.
You can also create custom reports that can be called on the fly.
Check out http://www.opennms.org for the screen shots and more information.
I've been working with it for about 2 weeks and already I'm able to do more with it than Nagios or Zabbix. The only thing I liked about Nagios is the WRML graph, but I mainly want to see a status grid and that's it.

It uses PostgreSQL and runs on top of Tomcat4.
Do any of these alternatives combine the ability to monitor current status with a grid-like display of many systems and services with notification alarms and also keep long-term historical graphs of values? I'm currently running spong for notifications/status and cacti for history/graphs, but I'd like to find something that does both with one snmp query.

Give Hobbit a chance: http://hobbitmon.sourceforge.net/. Base on Big Brother but with a lot of enhancements...
