Outsourcing your faxing lets you remain focused on your core business. Your people
    • will no longer stand in line waiting to send to get a fax
    • they won't spend time looking for a lost fax
    • they won't need to file or forward a fax
    • and they won't print something just to be able to fax it.

    You will be able to accurately budget your faxing costs, you'll eliminate the telco expenses, you'll save paper and toner, and you'll have no capital, leasing or operational expenses for a costly fax servers (both
    startup as well as the often hard to calculate recurring expenses), or standalone fax machines or MFPs.

    You tell us your current fax volume, we tell you your probable current costs and what you could save. (If you do not know your faxing volume, that is an even more important reason to outsource.)

    Outsourced faxing is a pay as you go solution.

    • No capital expenditure
    • No maintaning backup resources
    • No IT headaches
    • No phone lines, no data lines, no special software
    • No asprin.

    If you never thought of your fax machine as a very costly way of faxing, think of the many steps needed to send a fax

      Your employee prints out the document[s] to be faxed
      They walk over to the fax machine, grab a blank cover page and fill it in
      They wait for the fax machine to be not busy
      They dial the fax number, possibly many times if it is busy
      They wait for all of the pages to feed through the fax machine
      They wait for the fax to complete and for the confirmation to print out
      They take all of the paper and either file it or throw it out.
      They wander back to their desk (possibly stopping for a chat first with someone)
      They get back to work.

    Depending on their hourly wages, that fax cost you at least $.25 per page, and possibly, according to some studies, as much as $3.00 per page.
