eFax
Send and receive faxes online, by email, or through the mobile app without a fax machine.
eFax is an online faxing service that replaces the need for a physical fax machine or dedicated phone line. It solves the problem of sending and receiving faxes without dedicated hardware by allowing users to fax directly from their email, a web browser, or a mobile device. Faxes are delivered as email attachments and stored securely online.
Key capabilities include sending faxes by email, from a web browser, or via iOS and Android mobile apps. Users can send a single fax to multiple recipients, add up to five users to one account, and organize faxes with tags and search. The service offers unlimited online storage, electronic signature functionality, and pre-formatted fax templates. For larger organizations, eFax Corporate provides features such as multifunction printer integration, an admin portal, detailed reporting, and an SAP-certified connector. The service integrates with cloud storage platforms like Dropbox, iCloud, and Google Drive.
eFax is designed for individuals and businesses of any size that need to send or receive faxes. It is offered on a rolling monthly contract with no long-term commitment. A free trial is available, which includes a credit for sending and receiving a set number of pages and must be cancelled within a specified period to avoid charges. Plans are billed monthly or annually, with multiple plan tiers that include features like a local or toll-free number and 24/7 live support.
