Fax Service

We use RingCentral for faxing. The base plan is like 750 faxes per month for $14.99. We never come close to this amount and only have one line. System is solid though never have issues.

That's nothing for sending out. how much receiving?Likely about the same or less. Honestly, I'd like the service to go away, but On High requires it.

@eddiejennings Waterford is pretty affordable for that amount.

I spoke with one of their sales reps earlier. Their most basic plan for the EGoldFax was $30 / month.

I'm testing voip.ms's email to fax service. One immediate challenge is training users to send it plaintext E-mails or get them to delete all of the images from our default E-mail signature. >(

@eddiejennings Yeah, that part is a pain. I had to train medical staff on this.

Is it possible to have the email server strip that when sending to a specific address?

Depends on the email server. Office365/Exchange Online can be configured to forced to send plain text emails to specific addresses IIRC.

What happens in those cases when you have a PDF or a Word doc attached?

Attachments would still be attached I believe. Could be wrong never had to do it.

I'll have to look into that.

I can speak only to RingCentral's service, but if you have text in the body, whether it be a signature or logo or anything in the body, it will try to print that extra text out on a separate page in the fax. Looks messy. We initiate ours through email and we have a fax cover letter template that users can fill out electronically and then also attach whatever they're wanting to send, preferably in PDF format. So generally it's sent to ### @ rcfax.com, and then 2 attachments, one for cover letter and one for the actual item being sent. Putting something in the subject line messes things up as well.
