For our clients we are using zabbix mostly, conveniently through the SaaS version my company makes (http://tribily.com, not interesting if you have more then 50 servers or so). We have some clients using New Relic as well, which is very nice if your core-business is running a website or webapp.
Somewhere on my todo-list is investigating how much trouble it would be to write a puppet module that could register hosts in zabbix through their API. Should be possible, but I haven't had even a second to look into it :) Anyhoo: like zabbix for it's all in one solution: monitoring, trending, graphing and alerting. Know of zabbix installations doing 40K hosts, but they have a pretty advanced setup.
