This means that you need never miss out on a fax being sent to your business.Many businesses still rely on faxes these days -e for example required when copies of legal documents need to be sent rapidly.

As such, lots of firms that deal with contracts and reports that need to be signed off still require a fax service.

In other words, it is a lot cheaper and more convenient to use this service than to have a fax machine somewhere in your office that is only used once or twice a year.

How Does Fax to Email Work?

To be clear, when someone sends a fax to you, they will operate their fax machine in just the same way that they normally would. This means their facsimile system will scan the documents they want to send you and then it will dial your fax number. When the call comes through with the associated process that fax machines still use, the Cleartone Fax to Email service will answer the call and reply to the modem sending the fax with what is called a handshake protocol.

Once the connection between the two services has been established, the document’s file can effectively be downloaded by the Fax to Email system. The difference between this and a conventional fax system is that the document won’t be printed out automatically. Instead, it will be emailed to you as a PDF document. Once you have collected it in your inbox, you can read it, print it out or delete it as you see fit.

Speed and efficiency – you will not require a fax machine or any extra hardware or software and will be able to receive your faxes remotely wherever you are.
