With simply a modem, a phone line, and the proper software, you can turn your
PC into a fully functioning fax machine on the fly. Many computers come with
faxing software when you pull them out of the box, and those that don't can
be easily setup. If you need to perform simple inbound/outbound faxing on a
day to day basis, this solution may be for you.
Enterprise faxing encompasses many different possible technologies. From integrated
phone system faxing, to a multi-server network faxing solution, the possibilities
are limitless. Are you still racing back and forth to the fax machine down the
hall, only to stand in line waiting to send a fax, or in hopes that the fax you've
been waiting for all day can be found in the ever growing pile? An enterprise faxing
solution very well might be the answer you're looking for. Sending a single fax, or
multiple customized faxes and emails (typically through the use of a document mail
merge) is as easy as a few clicks. Receiving faxes right on your desktop, by way
of email, is also possible with an enterprise solution. If you have the proper
phone service, true inbound desktop faxing is a snap for either all employees,
or a select few.
