From my understanding, Hathora is a netcode, so the layer handling communications between players through the server. Agones is for orchestrating the deployment/scaling of game servers, and Open Match is for matching players together, who will then join this server. So they are all complementary. Being in the industry, not a fan of Agones, and I barely hear of anyone using it. It solves the wrong problem, it's supposed to be a solution for game studios to handle scaling, but the only studios that have the resources to spend to understand, use and manage it already have their own solution in place. Open Match on the other hand is a great tool for matchmaking.
