Totally agree. I was quite impressed with UI and bling bling when one of our employees installed it to monitor one of our servers (university team of 15 people) .However it turned out to be a total cognitive overload and very hard to bring it down to the strictly necessary to maintain the server. Then the cloud login stuff was a show stopper. We moved from nagios via icinga to checkmk, but we are still quite unhappy with good metrics based monitoring (we had munin at some point). A lot of the solutions seems overkill or oversimplify alarm states leading to a lot of false positives or duplicate notifications.
