I would recommend all system administrators use some form of network monitoring if they are not already doing so, and I'd definitely recommend people consider OpenNMS if they're shopping around. Small businesses will benefit from the low-cost of entry (it's free!), whilst getting all the enterprise features. Larger businesses can benefit from paid support plans.
However, there's no getting around the fact that you will require some advanced networking and sysadmin knowledge to get the most out of OpenNMS, or at least, be prepared for a steep learning curve. If you don't have the resources to devote this time initially, you may struggle.

SUSE NeuVector is exceptional when you want to make your Kubernetes cluster secure. You can limit network connections, scan containers, container registries and Kubernetes nodes for vulnerable software, forbid running specific commands on certain or all containers. You can enable security for individual containers - when SUSE NeuVector has learned container specifics. That's why you can deploy SUSE NeuVector on production Kubernetes clusters where you are already running conteiners - it will not break anything.

I haven't quite figured out how to make topologies work yet, but I haven't spent a ton of time on it either.
We've also had a bit of trouble importing some MIBs, but that usually boiled down to working with the vendor to make sure we had the right MIBs and dependencies.

OpenNMS's more attractive GUI and its price break were the main reasons our company chose to explore and use this product. However, it never managed to actually replace Nagios which had a much more established hold within the company. Perhaps we were over-monitoring, but our company claimed a $100k loss per hour of downtime.

SUSE NeuVector is deployed on your Kubernetes, and data does not leave your data center. Sysdig is a cloud platform - you have no full control over what happens with your data. Also, SUSE NeuVector has a capability to prevent specific command execution ir containers, but Sysdig does not have such ability. Sysdig is not an open-source solution, but SUSE NeuVector is.
Initial adoption required quite a lot of resources and time to get everything right. Totally worth it for us; just be prepared for a gradual process that will get better and better with time.
Once setup and running smoothly, it provides us with all the reporting we could hope for, at near zero cost.
With OpenNMS, we're able to offer a much more reliable service to our customers, and spend a lot less time dealing with issues.
