[rrd-users] Frontend Advice

Hi all,

I've been studying RRDTool for the last week or so while slowly digging
through the tutorial, and at last some lightbulbs are turning on
(gasp!).

But before I seriously start implementing it, I was interested in
hearing how others are using RRDTool. Are you using one of the frontends
mentioned on the RRD page (Orca, Cricket)? Or using it directly by
writing scripts and using cron or similar to feed data into the tool? If
using a frontend, how did you find it?

At this point I'm leaning towards my own scripts, mainly for direct
control, but I can see how this will become unwieldy once I start
looking at 100s of devices.

I guess I'm just looking for some 'reviews' of what's available before
choosing a strategy. Any feedback greatly appreciated.

Neil
