About Cacti
Cacti polls devices over SNMP and scripts and stores the results in RRDtool round-robin databases, producing long-term graphs with a template system for device types and a plugin architecture for extensions. It has been maintained since 2001.
Strengths
- RRDtool storage keeps years of graphs in a fixed amount of disk
- Mature template and plugin ecosystem for network devices
Limitations
- Interface and workflow feel dated next to newer monitoring stacks
- Alerting requires plugins rather than being built in
