Out of those options I think Big Brother probably comes closest=
and
it was on the checklist to see if it is useable.
I should probably have been more specific. What we are looking=
for is
an automated checking system that can send a text message if a
problem is found.
It doesn't have to be all in one as I believe we currently have=
an
email-sms gateway available to us.
