However, you can try your luck with a more "all-in-one" like LibreNMS that includes a lot of stuff and quite an amount of integrations (like sflow, snmp, checkmk, etc...) which is probably what you're looking (the all in a single screen)

take a look at snmp and librenms https://www.librenms.org/ I have been using this for years and it has never let me down. You can even then import data into Grafana if you want.
