Nagios vs. .NET's MOM

[Greg Vickers]

Hi all,

Apparantly .NET contains a product called MOM - Microsoft Operations 
Management. This product can provide real-time monitoring & reports etc etc 
of windows servers.

My manager put a hold on ordering the server that we are purchasing for 
nagios and asked me to look into MOM. I'm looking for ... comparative 
information of the two products. I have a preference of which product i'd 
like to put in, but I have to build a case. Can anyone here comment on 
these two products?

p.s. I just found out that the licence for MOM is per processor 
monitored... so if we want to monitor our lab PCs, we'd have to pay 
1000*the licence fee ... which is low-three figure price...
