Which open source netflow collectors are you using?
Personally a big fan of ipfixcol2, which allows me to dump collected packets straight into a queue, and allows me to ingest wonky custom fields that some of my vendors insist on using and not documenting.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing xenoeye and ipfixcol2 you can also consider the following projects:
goflow2 - High performance sFlow/IPFIX/NetFlow Collector
nfdump - Netflow processing tools
softflowd - softflowd: A flow-based network traffic analyser capable of Cisco NetFlow data export software.
ipt-netflow - Netflow iptables module for Linux kernel (official)
pmacct - pmacct is a small set of multi-purpose passive network monitoring tools [NetFlow IPFIX sFlow libpcap BGP BMP RPKI IGP Streaming Telemetry].
akvorado - Flow collector, enricher and visualizer
