Stats alarms are alarms that can be added to a selected element of a stats collection point (Stats point), in order to trigger an alert if a specific condition is met (e.g. the number of outbound calls is above 100 or the number of concurrent lines in use exceeds 20).The criteria that must be met to trigger an alarm is user-defined, and email alerts can be sent to one or more recipients.

Call statistics alarms are simply a variation of the standard "alarm" directory object and provide an additional means of keeping a tab on call patterns.
