The ability to fax documents has remained an important part of business communications. Even with the introduction of email, there remained the need to use a fax machine, typically located at a central part of an office, to send and receive these business critical communications.

Now, with IP communications taking over the entire sphere of communications, email and fax have come together for a much easier and speedier way of sending these communications with email fax.

Email fax sends correspondences via email as an attachment so senders or receivers of the documents can create, print and send faxes right from their computer.

Email fax saves time needed to walk over to a fax machine in hopes of its availability, or to find fax numbers and dial and wait for the fax to be sent.

Emails fax also increases security as the risk of someone taking the fax from the central machine is no longer an issue with faxes being sent to a users specific email address, so the message is for their eyes only.
