provides me with a tremendous amount of value in customer relations and profitability with the time factor in response time. it gives me an edge over my competition

this enables me to receive my faxes no matter where I'm at. it also lets me decide if and who can be added to distribution list. im anle to respond to my merchants regardless of my location.

sometimes it can be a little slower than traditional fax to receive. there have been occasions thst i have had to have items faxed to office fax instead.

It has been terrible. They lied about pricing. Customer support is slow, sends you in circles, and gives the wrong answer almost every time. Chat disconnects constantly and they give you the wrong phone numbers to call. I’ve had faxes not go through at times and no way to fix it. I tried to port my numbers out and they play games to avoid releasing the numbers — for six months and counting — while also telling me that I have to keep paying for service until after the numbers are ported or they won’t port them. They claimed to have sent me a PIN (they haven’t) when it’s just the last four of your credit card (not secure). Overall, this is a terrible company and I encourage people to stay away.

I switched to eFax for two reasons: it was supposed to be cheaper than Vonage (that turned out to be a lie) and the app is decent for my iPhone. The app is just about the only thing I like, but it’s pretty basic.

The company itself has scammy sales people, a difficult to use portal for your account, and the worst customer service in the world. Don’t expect them to help you with any issues at all. They will not understand and send you in circles.

A like my personal eFax number. I don't have to wait for someone to look up the faxes for me. I go in my fax and access directly. The system saves your faxes for a long time. You can create folders to save the fax into. Sending faxes is easy and it saves the contacts especially when you have multiple requests from a certain agency. Faxes are clear. I love my eFax.

It is hard when you only have one number to send and receive faxes to especially when someone other than you handles the faxes. I don't like when you get faxes repeatly from other businesses that do not belong to you.

eFax Corporate allows me to achieve more by digitally faxing documents with HIPPA compliance.

At the surface, eFax Corporate provides what you expect, a digital fax that allows you to fax directly to an individuals email, and it does it well. It also allows you to sign documents within the application, offers mobile applications and what got me the most excited, it works with GoogleDrive.

My biggest draw back is their limits on page/file size. Sometimes the charts I have to send are robust and I have to break them down into multiple faxes.

I love how easy this is to use and the level of integration it has with our software. We send and receive faxes for it with very few problems. Their customer support team is out of this world. The longest I've waited for a reply was under an hour and that was because our direct rep was on a plane. We commonly have less than 5 minute response times. They give good price breaks on quantity.. we send and receive about 70,000 pages per month and get a great rate. Much more economical than maintaining standard machines.

There are obscure file\page size limits on faxes sent through their API. They have a new version but it does not work with our software yet.

I've loved this product since it was introduced and implemented in our software. I was one of two users who were given the permissions to use this product and it's quick and easy to implement and use. I've been thrilled using it instead of standing at a fax machine.

I love the ease of sending faxes through this product. I used to stand at a fax machine punching in numbers. Faxing is now completed with a click of a button.

We use eFax as an integration with our software, TrialWorks. It became a life saver once we implemented this software. We are able to fax customers directly through their case.

My review speaks for itself! I love eFax!

I’ve been using the EFax services for about 16 years now in general, I suggest using this for anyone. A lot of times I have Files and I may not be around the printer, but I need to get my paperwork to where it has to go, the best thing to use is effects. As long as you can use the other system that I use Adobe and then I integrate that with effects and send my signed and sealed paperwork straight to wherever I want to in the world. I love this product, I will forever be a customer.

I can’t really think of any cons at this moment lol.

Overall, Efax gets the job done and allow us to keep our order flow consistent the majority of time.

Efax is an easy to use online fax service that allows businesses toll free service with online access.

The only issues we've has so far is the system sometime goes down and we have to call in and wait for them to resolve. But it usually doesn't take that long.

Saved the company from having a POTS line installed and dedicated to just a fax service and you didn't need to buy or maintain a fax machine.

Easy to use and convenient. You receive it like a scan and could save it as a PDF.

The faxing out part didn't seem secure as you sent it out to an efax email, so you didn't know if someone else was reading your fax.

I suppose for big corporations (or law firms, where I once worked and eFax supplied everyone with their own fax line), this is a good product. However, even when I used it at the law firm, I did not always get notification as I should have, or as fast as I should have, of the receipt of a fax. Or confirmation of a fax. It's nice to have the history of the faxes you've received, so you can go back and get something if you need to. Obviously it does integrate well, it's basically pretty easy to use (if you can operate a regular fax machine, you can run eFax), and it's been around a while. But for the individual user or small companies, really, it's much too expensive, especially since there are so many other free or very cheap options out there. The "free trial" is a joke. Don't waste your time if you're going to sign up for it, just so you can send a quick fax, thinking you will cancel before the free trial ends. They're going to get money out of you one way or the other. Keep that number to your credit card's charge dispute line ready. If you only send the rare fax, bounce over to HelloFax instead and send it for free. Or set up the fax option in Microsoft and fax directly from your word processing software.

Expensive, shady "free trial" that bills you no matter what, doesn't offer anything in terms of increased efficiency or performance that I can't get from using a free or already installed on my machine service.

Needed a virtual fax system that allows our virtual practice administrators to check inbound faxes and allow our clinicians to send outbound faxes without having to buy equipment for our 15 offices. Also allows us to avoid having to allocate and secure space within our office for HIPAA compliance related to faxing.

HIPAA compliant, virtual fax system which allows our multi-office healthcare practice to manage all fax volume (especially inbound faxes) without having to buy multiple machines, train multiple staff, etc. eFax was willing to provide a Business Associate Agreement (BAA), which is necessary for compliance.

We changed after getting consistent complaints from clients and other providers that they're faxes were not going through. We even lost a referral source due to their exhaustion with us not getting their referrals and records. When we found a lower priced option, we beta-tested it on a parallel basis and switched after 30 days. Also, their interface feels a little antiquated and quirky compared to the other provider we switched to.

We needed to remain nimble to use fax to support government clients and interface with doctors/clinics/etc. We had pretty much overlooked fax completely and tried a host of free services that ultimately would fail and cause embarrassment. The eFax system is intuitive, robust, and decently affordable given its attributes.

It sends big files, it has a Mac desktop app, fax & sign, e-sign, mobile apps. I could go on for a while. There are tons of fax over email services, many of them are free. But if you work with rural courts, medical practitioners, government offices, etc., you are using fax. Add in the HIPAA compliance and this is the easiest money we've ever spent for so many solid features in one simple tool- even Google Drive support which helps because that is the core of our operations infrastructure.

You quickly pass the incoming/outgoing page limits, but the product is worth it. There are caps to users on a plan, ours was at 5 so it was fine normally but in intern season it became a challenge.

Overall, there is no other option than eFax. The ease of use and the convenience it provides is priceless.

Our entire team is on the road most of the time and we are being faxed docs continuously throughout our day. We'd be grounded at the office if not for eFax. The number one thing I like is the convenience it provides.

The cost to use eFax can be a bit pricey. But I've tried the other options out there and have determined that eFax is worth the cost.

We use eFax to cut down on paper usage, streamline faxing in a office where many faxes are going in and out, and allow remote workers to fax documents without a printer or fax machine.

We moved from a physical fax machine to eFax and have found it very simple and convenient to use. I appreciate that you can fax both from their portal as well as via email, and that you get fax confirmations and incoming faxes so easily without having to sort through them when everyone is sharing a fax machine.

eFax has few issues, they are clear, user friendly, allow many files to be attached to an email, and I have not had glitches or trouble using it at all.

We have had a few hiccups with customer service during implementation but overall the software does what we need it to do. Simple to send and receive faxes.

That faxes are very easily accessible, easy to download and then put in patients charts. It is also very easy to send faxes and keep a contact list.

If you are locked out of the account, it is very time consuming for customer service to reset the password and get you back into your account.

While faxing is quite antiquated, the healthcare industry has not yet widely adapted a replacement. Until then, this seems to be the next best thing. You have the same compatibility as traditional faxing, but are able to reduce clutter and free floating sheets of paper which could lead to HIPAA violations.

At the end of the day its still fax, which makes it less than ideal but its the standard used by the rest of the industry.

Easily send or receive a fax. Upload items directly to your computer and easily send them via fax to a fax machine/number. Ease of setup and use/very user friendly.

Nothing fancy or unique here. This is a basic electronic fax software. Interface is a bit 'outdated' looking but that doesn't obviously affect the functionality and ease of use of the software.

Ease of setup, ease of use and the ability to receive a fax anywhere at anytime. Also have mobile apps.

efax is not HIPPA Compliant, however the same company owns sFax, which is not only HIPPA compliant they have a BAA available for its customers. I am currently in the process of moving much over to sFax.

Good. Would recommend if you dont have a budget but there are cheaper options.

This product is very well known and trusted. Secure in sending faxes with private data within. Easy to send through emails.

The pricing is very expensive. Can get charged for having a fax line, and number of pages of incoming and outgoing faxes.

Great cloud option for faxing as the analog fax lines are going away

Ease of use for end users. Ability to use security technology like SSL and TLS to encrypt the message transmissions.

User setup in portal not as clean as I would like. Search feature not always returning the number you are looking for.

Overall I'm very satisfied with efax I use it everyday.

The most important thing to me about this software is the contact list. I use efax corporate in my lab to send results to our clients and my contact list is extensive but efax can handle all of the 100+ stored contacts.

The only thing I don't like is having to add a 1+ before each fax number. If you forget the 1+ the faxes will not go through.

We started using eFax's services roughly a year ago. I can tell you right now, we've never had an issue. It was setup seamlessly and has worked without any issues since. eFax allows us to have remote workers now, which is awesome!

I have absolutely no complaints about eFax. I would recommend them to any business that is looking to do away with their fax machine.

Great user friendly product. Love that faxes come straight to my inbox

Only con that it’s on the more expensive end of faxing softwares if you pay per page

There are no pros! Everything is terrible, billing is an issue with them all the time. Their server is very slow

It takes forever to retrieve your inbox. Down for 1 week and no ETA what more can I say? Worst service ever!
