Inreach is great (I have the older delorme model not the new GPS version). Much cheaper and more reliable than a sat phone, of course its only a text message compared to being able to talk. But that is plenty for me. The SOS feature is also great. I've used it on accident (somehow was triggered in my pack going thru the airport, this was back before they put in extra steps to activate the device. I can tell you that it definitely works, even though I didn't activate the final SOS, they kept trying to contact all my contacts to see if I was OK when they saw the first SOS step was triggered. You can also suspend your plan in the off-season (big plus for me). I do have a garmin rhino as well, and I love it. If I were in the market to buy either of these things now, I would definitely buy the all-in-one unit.
