If you don't mind integrating a solution (for greater flexibility)
Take a look at the Mikrotik router + Cellular Modem + M2M Plan.
e.g.
http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Cellular_SIMcom_modems_01
http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Option_Globetrotter_HSDPA_USB_Modem
http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:Tools/Sms
http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Monitoring_Network_thru_SMS_Alerts
https://aacable.wordpress.com/2012/11/22/howto-enable-mikrotik-to-sendreceive-sms-using-gsm-modem/
BTW. One of the folks who is a subject matter expert on Mikrotik + Cell Modem etc is Brian Vargas of Baltic Networks.
etc etc etc...
