Can I make my system work with ML and a2414U?

Apologies if I have missed the proper info or FAQ page but I have searched through the forum and in the App store and haven't been able to discover exactly what the various iterations of Mobilinc can do and whether they might work for my set up.
Almost all of my Insteon components were bought and installed in 2008. I have 30 or so switchlinc dimmers, 10 KPL8s, a few wireless motion sensors, a 220/240v 30 amp controller and a 2414U. I was previously using a mac mini and Indigo but the computer died and I'm looking for the most economical solution to control my set up.
I just want to control my lights and co-ordinate scenes, some of which I would like to vary with dawn/dusk if possible but nothing too elaborate. Not interested in adding thermostat control, irrigation, cams/security etc.
I have a few ipads (2 minis, a second gen and 3rd gen retina), a couple iphone 5s and several ipod touch units in the house that can be used for control. The computers in the house are all Macs. Can I simply use one of the Mobilinc apps in conjunction with the 2414U to do what I want to do? Do I need an ISY (I'm looking at a deal on a 994i)? What will the Mobilinc app add if I use it in conjunction with with a 994i aside from being able to control the state of my switches using iOS?
Like I said I apologize for asking such noob questions but perhaps my experience here is not unique, I would suggest that it would be very helpful to post user giudes, FAQs, more info in the app store etc to explain exactly what your product offers, it would probably lead to more sales. Just my $0.02. Many thanks in advance for your help and advice.
