I mean we have a self developed software where we asign monitoring to some
hosts and then we asign services to those hosts, then there's a field to
enter custom parameters like -u whatever -h whatever2 and we have many of
those fields, so it's not easy to change that. This information has been
filled by many different users.

It's a big nagios installation, we are monitoring around 3000 hosts and
3000 services so that's not easy to change or to adapt to icinga2 in an
automated mode.
