SMS / Text Messages alerting
SMS alerting allows to be alerted even when your network is down. SMS alerts are sent through a GSM modem using the mobile phone network. We recommend and support the Falcom USB GSM Modems. However many other GSM modems do work with the software.

* Actual electricity cost may vary depending on rates applied by your electricity supplier. Prices are based on estimates as outlined here. The competing and open source costing does not take the cost of hardware into consideration which would increase the difference even more.
