We use MYFAX and love it. All faxes are stored in our email account (only print what you need) and I have it set up so that 3 separate employees receive the faxes simultaneously. We now recieve faxes on our BlackBerrys and in the office.

I think you will like some form of e-fax as well. It also costs much less than an additional phone line.

I use faxmicro and love it. Gets sent to my email for $10 a month not bad. You can receive unlimited faxes but have to pay to fax. The only thing i dont like about a efax is if you want to fax something that you have in your hands an not on your computer you have to scan it and then upload it to fax it.

I've used this service for the past year with no problems. I think it was $90 something a year with a certain # of outgoing faxes allowed, which hasn't been a problem as email is used mostly.

Send2fax.com has worked well for me for the last couple of years.

currently using myfax as well... It's pretty much awesome.. you don't have to worry about paper jams, ink drying up, paper running out, or having to be at the office to look at the fax..

I use my fax and it's the best 10.00 I spend each month. No paper or machine to maintain.

I get faxes on my iphone which helps when on the road needing pricing etc.

We looked at numerous companies and selected MyFax as our partner (http://www.myonlinetoolbox.com/Corpo.../Partners.aspx). The reason we like it is that is was very easy for us to interface our software for estimating, purchasing and invoicing into their service without our users even knowing it exists. For example, assume a contractor wants to fax a work order to a subcontractor (becuase they are not using the Internet yet). We bring up a window that allows them to print, email or fax. If they choose fax, then the data is converted to the MyFax platform and a fax is sent to the subcontractor without the contractor getting up to go fax using the fax machine.

This service is very good, and I can only see one thing that may be a warning to others. MyFax, as well as many of their competitors is deisgned for the small business owner and they are very strict on collections. They do not warn you if they plan on shutting you off for a missed payment so ensure to have your account paid up since they will just shut you off and wait for you to contact them. I always prepay based on the nature of our business, but that may not be appropriate for you. They may have even changed their billing practices and my comment may not even be warranted.

Very good company with good service in the remote chance you need service. Brian

I just put there number as there email in quickbooks.

So a the email address would be like this: 14215413311@myfax.com.

Then I select email invoice.

Same can be done in quickbooks and all you do is attach what files you want to fax.

I have to agree with the positive reviews of e-fax. I threw my fax machine out years ago. You will need a scanner if you don't have one but they are cheap

I have used eFax for almost 6 years now. I recently set up a toll free fax number.

It is great and give me the ability to monitor my salesforces fax activity to see if they are telling the truth about sending that final invoice to the insurance company or not. = )

If you only need to send fax, you can use GotFreeFax.com to send free fax online to the US and Canada. You can either upload a PDF/Word file or enter text to fax. Plus, it does not add Ads to your fax, which makes it very suitable for faxing formal quotes or invoices.
