AFax Description

AFAX is a powerful FAX system for corporate network users or simply one PC. AFAX makes the creation, management, sending, and receiving of FAX documents easy, efficient, and reliable. There is no need for the typical paper fax machine. AFAX software uses a Native FAX client application on the PC desktop that communicates with the AFAX server on the corporate network. The AFAX server supports multiple addresses books, and can be very useful for broadcasting FAX messages to hundreds of recipients. AFAX will keep a log record of both the sent FAX document and the successful contacts make. The AFAX network server also provides incoming FAX management, and can queue multiple received FAX documents on the server for later retrieval by a persons PC.

AFAX provides the following benefits:

  • AFAX enables employees to send and receive FAX documents from their desks. There is no need to waste time and resources distributing paper printouts to recipients, or walking over to a common hardware-based FAX machine. The employee can assign either urgent or normal priority to the message. AFAX supports Windows XP/2000/NT and Windows ME/98/95 desktops and installs without having to reboot the client PC.
  • AFAX permits companies to distribute incoming FAXes to the right department or individual based on the target XXX.
  • AFAX offers your company a way to broadcast - an advertisement or an important document -- to a large number of pre-determined targets, logging the delivery success or failure in a readable file. AFAX can retry sending the documents according to your requirements. Now anyone can reliably know if the documents reached their destinations right from their desktop. The distribution lists and the success logs can be managed and viewed individually and corporate wide.
  • AFAX software works on any network server, and multiple servers can be supported in large corporate operations where departments are spread across multiple servers. The distribution lists, inbound and outbound faxes, can be managed by individual users and/or the FAX administrator.
  • AFAX server software supports any modem type attached to the server, including multiple modems where phone lines are used to send FAXES. AFAX has many configuration options for modem support including hot swapability, number of rings before answer, dialing options, and even call waiting support.
  • AFAX also supports IP faxing, offering the same inbound and outbound document management features for Internet transmission.
  • AFax comes with an API for embedding AFAX functionality into other applications. This is a real benefit for departments wanting a fully integrated, customized solution.
