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.
