Faxing without a POTS LINE
Many of our clients are still relegated to using fax machines. In some cases, they’re still using faxes in several departments.
Along with those faxes there’s a POTS line or (Plain Old Telephone Service) from the phone company. The problem here, other than changing fax cartridges, is the fact POTS line prices are climbing at a steady rate every year.
If your business has 5-6 POTS lines in place you may paying $300.00 to $400.00 in monthly line costs.
Are you aware there are some good alternatives?
Consider these two options for your business.
First, are your faxes handling inbound document only?
If so, you should strongly consider an efax solution.
An efax is a hosted solution that requires an internet connection and an email address.
There are several advantages of an Efaxing Solution.
First, efax completely eliminates a monthly line cost.
Second, efax allows you to distribute faxes directly (and privately) to specific personnel.
Further, with the use of a distribution list, you could, for example, distribute purchase orders to entire departments for faster processing.
The only downside to an efax solution is in situations where you may need to send a document to another fax machine. Outbound faxing requires a dedicated modem for calling.
Your best bet? Keep a single fax machine in place and use an IP fax modem.
An IP fax modem replaces your traditional POTS line by converting IP phone signal into analog.
With this special modem you can connect directly to an internet port, assign an IP address and then connect an RJ11 cable to the back of the modem.
