Like Jim, I was originally going to keep parallel installations going for some time (BB, and then Hobbit). After only 1 day of seeing what hobbit could do for me, my reaction was "why bother"?

I imported the bb-hosts file from BB into hobbit, turned BB off, and went to town.

I have to second everything that Kent said. I am still in the process of switching from BB to Hobbit, but I've had it set up and running since January. I really, really like it.

I'm going to continue using BB for a while to send messages and alerts to the help desk folks, since I want to filter out a lot of things that they might panic about but aren't really critical issues. Hobbit will be the main monitoring system for the rest of the technical staff.
