Comments on Server Monitoring with Shinken on Ubuntu 16.04

Shinken is an open source computer and network monitoring framework written in python and compatible with Nagios. In this tutorial, I will show you how to install Shinken from source and how to add a Linux host to the monitoring system. I will use Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial Xerus as the operating system for the Shinken server and monitored host.

I am trying to move from PRTG to other tool, I like Icinga and now Shinken... What do you think is the best open source option?
