I've tried a lot of monitoring solutions to monitor my Windows environment, and it's very hard to come close to how easy Hobbit/Xymon is to configure. I've been using it since the old BB days back in 2003. 99% of commercial and other open-source solutions don't match up to Xymon, in my opinion. Together with the BBWin client, it's very simple to monitor Windows servers. All the important info like disk usage, processes, services, etc are all there out of the box. Monitoring event logs is easy, but you can easily get flooded with emails if you're not filtering out useless events in your BBWin config. It takes a bit of learning for admins who aren't familiar with linux, but that's easily solved with some good documentation. If you're after a simple (once it's set up) Windows server monitoring solution that will just run without any maintenance for years, Xymon's what you need.
