One app I like a lot is Ping Plotter, but it only runs on Windows, so it
isn't good for remote monitoring. We do use it for some things,
however. I like the detailed traceroute / latency visualization it
has. It also has a hard time with a lot (100+) nodes being monitored.
SmokePing works well, but lacks detail in the form of traceroute.
