Hi Vladimir,
your question just raised a focal point that has been inserted in the
FAQS document for the upcoming release. So, let me report it:

===
Q3: What does pmacct offer, what can it do for me, what are its main
    features ?
A: pmacct can collect and export network data. Collect in memory tables,
   SQL databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite 3.x). Export data speaking
   sFlow v5 and NetFlow v1/v5/v9, pmacct is suitable to aggregate data.
   It can perform tagging, to mark data subsets (up to singular flow
   granularity), classification (ie. this is Kazaa, that http and that
   eDonkey), filtering, random sampling and renormalization. It's
   actually not suitable to log raw data (ie. packet-by-packet as
   tcpdump does or flow-by-flow as flow-tools or sflowtool do). And
   finally it has not been thought to write into flat files.
===

Summarizing, if you need raw data (either on the screen, in flat-files
or SQL database), you need to use flow-tools or one of its countless
featureful clones.

Cheers,
Paolo
