you may want to check out DPS's IAM product. We use it and it's been
reliable.
They have also been willing to customize things for us in the past-

Subject: Alert to Phone/Pager System




I am looking for a hardware/software solution to a problem and I am 
hoping someone has implemented something similar:

A monitoring system notices an error and sends an alert to a system (the 
alert can be sent over POTS or SMTP).  The system recevies the alert and 
sends out a message (Pager/POTS/SMTP/SMS) to a group of people in a pager 
rotation.  The 1st person is paged, if no response is received the second 
person is paged and so on down the line until someone responds.

I looked at the Dialogic's The Communicator:

But, it is a little pricey.  I also looked at VOCP System:

http://www.vocpsystem.com/

But, the desision maker is a little skittish about open source projects.

Does anyone know of a happy medium between these two systems that will 
fill the requirements outlined above?


Thanks!
