I have been pretty happy with arsDigita's Cassandracle suite: http://www.arsdigita.com/free-tools/cassandracle.html
It doesn't have capacity planning from what I recall, but its performance monitoring is neat, it has tools for handling deadlocks I've never seen before, and you can(&should) add ns_cron jobs to monitor Oracle status over time (eg, how fast does this tablespace grow). For novices, it's doubly useful as each page links to relevant information about Oracle problems; which often take some experience to know. It might take you an extra day to familiarize yourself with AOLserver (the webserver it runs on), but it might be worth it.
Some background on the larger system can be found at:
