I am looking at some network monitoring and alerting tools. We are currently using sitescope, but would like to see something that is easy to setup and free…..does it exist?

I have been looking at some vmware virtual appliances that are supposedly all setup, but am having a heck of a time actually finding a working link to download the things! In addition, looking through the documentation, these are less than easy to get up and running. Ugh.
