There was different talks about that subject before, but what solution
would you choose in order to manage multiple sensors (between 15 and 30) ?

Snortcenter ? Oinkmaster ? others ?

Oinkmaster, plus some shell scripts to implement sensor groups (by using different oinkmaster config files for each group).

I started off with Snortcenter, but I eventually became convinced that it was a bit too much of a toy to be useful with an 'Enterprise NIDS'. Also, it needs work every time Snort adds new keywords to its signature definition language.

Best Regards,
Alex.
