Fax Number
by Matt Gerchow
If you own a business, it is likely that you need a fax number. In the past, using a fax meant applying for a second line with the phone company, buying a fax machine and paying for installation. Today there is a better way to fax. Internet faxing allows the user to choose a local or 800 fax number that can be accessed from any computer or web enhanced cell phone. The fax number can allow the user to receive digital documents that can be viewed on any computer or web viewing device, including most cell phones.
A less expensive option
In many locations, adding a second line can cost more than the first phone line. However with web based fax services, such as those offered by ringcentral, consumers can add a fax number for as little as 6 per month. In addition, with these services there is no need to purchase an expensive fax machine that takes up more space in the office. Every incoming fax can be viewed as an e-mail attachment. Outgoing documents are simply attached as a file to an outgoing e-mail and print on the recipient's fax machine just like documents sent from another fax machine.
Send and Receive from Anywhere
Persons that have used fax machines in the past know how annoying it can be to have to head back to the office to send that document. If business takes you out of town, sending a fax may mean finding a place that allows you to pay by the page to send the document. However with the internet based fax service, documents can be viewed anywhere there is an internet connection. From the comfort of your hotel room you will be able to send and view those important documents. If you need a hard copy, simply head down to the business center and print the documents you need. All that is needed is a web based e-mail account and a subscription to RingCentral for a fax account.
