Fax via Email with Biscom's Hosted Fax Service
With our Hosted Fax Service, you send faxes through your email account. You create an email to the recipient's name and fax number at (@) the Biscom hosted fax domain. The fax message becomes the body of the email. You can then attach additional files, in different file formats. These files are converted to fax-machine compliant TIFF files by our servers. Your fax is then sent from your email to the recipient's fax number.
The Advantages of Fax via Email
There are several advantages to this method of sending a fax. First, you save money on costs associated with fax machines and servers, such as the cost of installing and subscribing to regular phone service, as well as the cost of purchasing and maintaining a fax machine or server. You can also switch to an entirely paperless fax system with our hosted fax service, saving more money, and the environment.
The second advantage is the simplicity, both for administrators and users. Biscom's fax software integrates into the programs you use every day, including AD Group Policy and the Microsoft Management Console. This integration enables you to manage users and track fax usage without the need to install and master additional software. Your employees will also be able to fully utilize their fax options without having to learn additional software.
Finally, sending and receiving faxes with Biscom's Hosted Fax Service saves time. No more waiting around the fax machine or waiting to send a fax until usage is lower. You can send your faxes whenever you want. Having all incoming faxes appear in your inbox allows you to quickly and easily find what you're looking for and keep all business correspondence sorted and on hand. Administrators can use Group Policy lists that have already been created to specify fax users, instead of having to create separate lists for all your different services.
