Keep your monitoring tools. Connect them to NetBox.
Nobody throws away a working NMS to adopt NetBox. NetBox becomes the list that feeds every tool, and every tool's alerts flow back into NetBox, so there is still one source of truth.
Nagios / Icinga
Host and service definitions generated from NetBox. New servers are monitored the moment they are added.
MRTG / Cacti
Traffic-graph targets built from NetBox interfaces and IPs, with no hand-kept config files.
Zabbix, PRTG, SolarWinds NPM
Hosts created and updated through each tool's API from NetBox, grouped by site, role and tenant.
OpenText NNMi (HP OpenView)
Seed lists and node groups from NetBox; NNMi incidents written back to the device journal.
IBM Netcool, Broadcom DX NetOps
NetBox enriches events with site, rack, owner and support contract, so the operator knows who to call.
Prometheus and Grafana
NetBox as the target list; dashboards labeled by site, rack and role.
Any SNMP device or NMS
SNMPv3 settings, location and contact come from NetBox; SNMP traps are written back into NetBox by a vendor-neutral trap receiver.
Oxidized / RANCID
Configuration backups for every network device NetBox lists, including new ones, automatically.
Snipe-IT and ticketing
Asset lifecycle and purchasing in Snipe-IT, tickets linked to the NetBox device they are about.
