eFax

eFax is a nifty application that can turn two jobs into one. Instead of emailing your email database and then faxing your fax database, eFax allows you to send a communication to both types of contacts with one simple action. And it happens straight from your PC. eFax arrives as a CD-ROM so its very easy to install and set up. Or you can download the eFax software and user guide directly from our web site.

Any organisation with existing business applications that creates large volumes of faxes will find life easier with eFax Sendservice. eFax Sendservice integrates with many existing business applications and allows you to automate creation and delivery of faxes. Purchase orders, invoices, price changes, financial market updates and special customer offers are just a few examples of communications that can be sent quickly and efficiently.

How eFax works

If you want to send a Word document or some other kind of file from a Windows application, simply select the eFax printer from within the application and follow the dialogue boxes.

For a straightforward fax message, open the eFax application directly to create and send a fax.

eFax sends your message as an email to the eFax network. On arrival, software sends it on to the recipient(s) as either a fax or email, depending on the details in your address book. eFax has loads of features that make your business communications faster and easier.

Who needs eFax?

eFax suits any business or person who regularly communicates by email and fax to a large database.

You can send information to a large number of recipients quickly and efficiently, without leaving your desk. eFax is just as handy when you want to send a fax to only one person - a couple of mouse clicks and it's done. eFax can work with other business systems to automate document delivery - for example, it can send remittance advice to direct creditors or automatically fax invoices. eFax doesn't tie up your phone lines like an ordinary fax machine - a server does all the time-and-line-consuming stuff.

How much?

If you're a regular fax user, our standard eFax plan has a monthly rental of $50 + GST with usage charges additional, all billed to your Telecom account. Check out pricing for our Standard Plan.

If you only send faxes once in a while or if you have lots of branch offices, have a look at our Usage Only or Multi Site Plans.
