Hi, and welcome.

Probably the best place to start is:

http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/quickstart.html

I won't even try to tell you which version is better.  Personally I
use Nagios Core with PNP4Nagios for graphing, NagVis for dashboards
and a few other neat add-ons.

If you find it hard going understanding Nagios, I recommend the book
"Nagios" by Wolfgang Barth published by No Starch Press.  ... and of
course ask in here if you get stuck.

hth,

Jim
