      I am very hopeful that we can get this moving once we get our VMware update project out of the way. Need to get our VMware vSphere hosts patched up before we deploy any new systems on them. Once that is done, this is high on the list to try out. Maybe this weekend, we will see. I have not forgotten about this one.

        We use that internally, the hosted version, it has been very good.

          We use it at my work. It really helps finding data flows and hardware.

                Cool, how do you like it? What does it compare to?

                  I use Observium at the new job as well as the old place. It works great and is easy to set up (running it on Ubuntu server). The only thing is that alerting is not working yet in the CE. They are still hashing out the details in the donor version, so hopefully they'll have some solid alerting going this fall (hopefully).

                  It is VERY nice, though. Easy to navigate and has all the info I need to track down mac-addresses on a port. It doesn't do NetFlow or anything like that, but overall it's pretty sweet.

                    So is this like a SW equivalent, but better?

                      @Scott3184 No. ServiceDesk Plus is a Ticketing system. Observium is a network monitor of sorts.

                        Super fail on my part here... I knew I had heard of this prior to today, but did ont realize that I had already looked into it once before..

                        @hutchingsp posted a thread over on SW that made me want to look a this and then I searched here and found this old post.. so sad on my part that I never set this up yet...
