It will be interesting to know what kind of integration is planned for Nagios as it already supports Event handlers[1] for executing script when there's a state change.

@Ecio, we are different in a few ways: 1) we are monitoring tool agnostic 2) we provide a much better UX than clunky nagios interface 3) unlike event handlers, we provide best practice script templates so that you don't have to figure out entire script yourself 4) finally, we offer rate limiting features for executing scripts (think don't run this action more than 3 times in last one hour).

In a way, neptune is your virtual first-level on call engineer. If we can resolve alerts for you automatically, neptune won't bother you. If action fails for some reason, it's escalated automatically to right on call engineer.
