I did have some bad experiences with OTEL and have lot of freedom on deployment ; I never read of Signoz will definitely check it out ; SigNoz is working with OTEL I suppose ?
I wonder if there are any other adapters for trace injest instead of OTEL ?
be cognizant of their licenses (AGPLv3), it matters in some shops

Jaeger collector perhaps but then you'd have to use the Jaeger UI. Signoz has a much nicer UI that feels more integrated but last I checked had annoying bugs in the UI like not keeping the time selection when I navigated between screens.
There are a few: I've played with https://uptrace.dev and https://openobserve.ai/ . OpenObserve is a single binary, so easy to set up
