Being a long time nagios and netsaint user and contributor to the community, I have to say your comments are 100% dead on.
The configuration of nagios is confusing even for a seasoned user, the security models are non-existant and adding even simple graphing and historical data to nagios requires another entire level of ridiculous configurations.
Nagios was a fantastic tool, in 2001. However, it is basicly the exact same tool today that it was in 2001 and there are far better tools available now that do the same thing, but they're easier to configure, manage and use.
