Hello,
Which company do you guys recommend for an email to fax gateway? We may have a use for it if it is quite reliable and cost-effective.

RingCentral

Our primary use would be to send outgoing faxes. We don't have much of a need for a new fax number or another toll free line.

It does not have to be specifically email to fax either - It can be web-based or otherwise internet based.

We use Freedom Fax for most of the services. If you are on a Exchange server GFI (http://www.gfi.com) is a good service as well.

I've used MaxEmail (http://www.maxemail.com/) for a few months now and have been very happy with the service.

Hi,

We use TrustFax.com . It is great whether you are sending faxes or receiving them.

does anybody know any free software from linux will do this?

MaxEmail is a great service!

hylafax is on the top spot when it comes to this. But there are many others out there, personally speaking the above mentioned is a pretty good one for me.

i've used fax1.com several times. it's 12 cents a page--and you can do web fax (from their website) email fax, or install their printer driver and just do "file-print" from your file. you get $1 for faxes when you sign up. i've been happy w/it.

give efax.com a try,they have free trial to test their service

eFax is good and has decent international service. Just sent any fax to FaxNumber@efaxsend.com.

No experience with this company, but the value can't be beat.

1000 pages (in/out) per month for $12.95. $0.03 per page after the 1000.

efax does seem to be pretty big. I've seen some major advert campaigns for them too. :)

send2fax.com is what I have been using.

I've been using faxitnice.com for quite sometime now and I must say they are pretty reliable.

I used eFax for a while and found the service to be pretty good.

There have been a few horror stories about canceling, but it was pretty painless. :)

Efax is big. Publicly traded (http://finance.google.com/finance?q=jcom&hl=en). $1.65B big. Another good one is myfax.com (http://www.myfax.com). They used to have a messy site, but have cleaned up the service.

Efax is pretty good, easy to use and has a nice software interface for sending and receiving faxes

efax has been around for a while too. I have a personal number with them (free) that I hardly ever use, and yet they've kept it assigned to me for years.

i had tried various providers but efax is best, have been using it for years.

It looks like efax is the most popular too. Their advert campaigns must really work. :)

We use eFax and it's pretty easy to use, works great. No complaints here!

I used to work for a company that used Efax and it was pretty decent. All faxes came in as email attachments which we could then file. Only thing I didnt like was you had to install a efax viewer to open the attachments but this may have changed as I have not used it in 2 or 3 years.

what if i want to use my own existing fax numbers instead of virtual or new efax numbers?

Then you can either port the number (assuming the provider support it) or set up HylaFax on a box, connect it to your fax line, and do the fax<->email yourself.

We've been using MyFax.com for quite some time now. We use it mostly for Outgoing Faxes and the service is great.

Ringcentral/800PBX/GotVMail - all have a nice way to receive faxes over your toll-free number at a very low cost price. They can also send faxes for the same price which is a huge PLUS.

I use Ringcentral.

Toll Free Tax # + 800 #.

I use a toll free number with kall8 to rec faxes... I also use that number for other business stuff, so it works out... only $2 a month.

I send faxes maybe two or three times a year, so I drive up to officeDepot or someplace like that and send the fax... unless I can get away with sending it from some free fax service online... then I just google "free fax" and pick a service that does not require any info and send. lol
