@monitor – the main aim of the post was to see the differences between 2009 and the previous post for 2008. The previous post didn’t include Zabbix.

Maybe it is worth redoing the graphs with Zabbix included?
I did a quick check, and it seems to be in the same range as most of the viewed solutions.

@Old Man Winter – my suspicion is that an awful lot of businesses have had enough things to cope with last year.

Implementing this kind of technology takes a lot of time, whether or not you’re paying for it is kind of irrelevant. If my business is struggling am I going to want my staff screwing around with some management software that makes their lives easier but doesn’t make me money? No of course not. Well make if it means I can fire a few of them and still get the work done, but otherwise, this kind of software is reserved for boon times not hard times.

@Twirrim – good point. Zabbix does seem to get overlooked quite often which is a shame.

I grabbed a quick comparison with one of my preferred monitoring tools, Zabbix. On comparitive scale it’s doing better than hyperic, zenoss and opennms, but it’s also pretty stagnant on search percentage, even with the release of 1.8 last month.
