I've used Spot devices through most of their generations and they have been faultless. If you're travelling further afield , ensure you're in coverage as there are a few areas of the world without full coverage.
If you do get one, consider the insurance for rescue they offer with the subscription, as its very cheap for what is provided.
I'm involved in Search and Rescue and these are quite popular - and have been used to locate lost and injured people with success.
I set the buttons to message simply
"OK", "Get in touch - no rush", "Urgent" etc which go to a number of people when I'm away. This leaves the SOS button for when you really need it
I track using Spotwalla - seems fine !
