Hi, I'll try asking again splitting topics... Does collectd add new data/features not available with SNMP polling?, should I implement collectd alongside a new Observium installation?. Also, which version plays nice with Observium today?, 4.10 or 5.0?

Collectd collects a lot more information than we can see via SNMP. I have no idea what the difference in versions are.

We only read the RRDs, we don't interact with collectd itself.

It'll work fine so long as RRD format and filenames havent' changed.
