-# Supported collectors list
+# Monitor anything with Netdata
 
 Netdata uses collectors to help you gather metrics from your favorite applications and services and view them in
 real-time, interactive charts. The following list includes collectors for both external services/applications and
 internal system metrics.

+configure](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/collectors/REFERENCE.md#enable-and-disable-a-specific-collection-module) any of the below collectors using the same process.
 
 Some collectors have both Go and Python versions as we continue our effort to migrate all collectors to Go. In these
 cases, _Netdata always prioritizes the Go version_, and we highly recommend you use the Go versions for the best
 experience.
 
 If you want to use a Python version of a collector, you need to
-explicitly [disable the Go version](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/masterhttps://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/collect/enable-configure.md),
+explicitly [disable the Go version](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/collectors/REFERENCE.md#enable-and-disable-a-specific-collection-module),
 and enable the Python version. Netdata then skips the Go version and attempts to load the Python version and its
 accompanying configuration file.
 
+## Add your application to Netdata
+
 If you don't see the app/service you'd like to monitor in this list:
 
+- If your application has a Prometheus endpoint, Netdata can monitor it! Look at our
+  [generic Prometheus collector](https://github.com/netdata/go.d.plugin/blob/master/modules/prometheus/README.md).
+
+- If your application is instrumented to expose [StatsD](https://blog.netdata.cloud/introduction-to-statsd/) metrics,
+  see our [generic StatsD collector](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/collectors/statsd.plugin/README.md).
+
+- If you have data in CSV, JSON, XML or other popular formats, you may be able to use our
+  [generic structured data (Pandas) collector](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/collectors/python.d.plugin/pandas/README.md),
+
 - Check out our [GitHub issues](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/issues). Use the search bar to look for previous
   discussions about that collector—we may be looking for assistance from users such as yourself!
+
 - If you don't see the collector there, you can make
   a [feature request](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/issues/new/choose) on GitHub.
+
 - If you have basic software development skills, you can add your own plugin
-  in [Go](https://learn.netdata.cloud/docs/agent/collectors/go.d.plugin#how-to-develop-a-collector)
+  in [Go](https://github.com/netdata/go.d.plugin/blob/master/README.md#how-to-develop-a-collector)
   or [Python](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/guides/python-collector.md)
