Monitoring system recommendation

I'm not at that scale, but I've seen some fairly impressive performance searching through a friend's NetXMS system with a couple years of verbose syslog and monitoring to go through.

Subject: Monitoring system recommendation 

Dear Nanog community 

We are currently planning to upgrade our monitoring system (Opsview) due to 
scalability issues and I was wondering what do you recommend for monitoring 
5000 hosts and 35000 services. We would like to use a monitoring system 
that is compatible with the nagios plugin format, however we are not sure 
if systems like Icinga/Shinken/Op5 are the way to go. 

Is someone using systems like Op5 or Icinga2 for monitoring > 5000 hosts? 
Would you recommend commercial systems like Sevone, Zabbix, etc instead of 
open source ones? 

Your input is really appreciated it 

Thank you and have a great day 

Regards
