Strengths of Cacti?

I'm curious to learn more about Cacti - the Cacti Web site and Google 
are of course very helpful, but I'm looking primarily for a comparison 
between Cacti and pnp4nagios.

Right now, I'm using nagios 3.0.6 together with pnp4nagios, and that 
seems to be working very well, and setting up pnp4nagios is a snap, of 
course.

At first glance, it seems that Cacti does roughly the same thing as 
pnp4nagios. Is that correct, or are they really like apples and oranges? 
Which one is better? Or probably a better question: what are their 
respective strengths and weaknesses, why would I use one or the other?
