Mainly convenience, message clarity, and avoiding per message charges. We have a few critical things (internet status) going out to paging service via a normal modem but the text we get from that is iffy; I've never looked into an SMS modem before though, thanks for the link. <br>

<div><br></div><div>I'm researching a new iPhone app/service that will let me send alarms from RTMT/splunk/etc out to an email address (or some other mechanism) that will then push the alert to iphones for people in my group. We've been using PushMail but it seems support has been dropped for the app and some of my guys accounts no longer send notifications.</div>
<div><br></div><div>So far i'm looking at Prowl and Push 4.0, but i'm curious if anyone else out there has used these or another app that I don't know about, and has any opinions on them.</div><div><br></div>
