Do you not have the option of using a tool like 'smssend' or just

Note that most such schemes may be cached for minutes/hours/days.
There are no guarantees re: delivery time.
There is some separate $cheme used by the "Vote now for CONTESTANT"

The other side of this besides the delayed receiving of messages is
with monitoring you want to get the alerts even if your network is down
and unable to send via email to your pager, cellphone, etc. Having an
out of band method to get those alerts out on criticial alerts is
paramount. I've used Nagios for many years but unfortunately have never
worked with sending through Verizon. I've had decent experience using
Sprint's gateways sending to my phone with minimal delay.
