eFax has positively impacted my organization by allowing us to receive faxes since we don't have a fax machine.
This has helped reduce costs by not having to go to a third party at a physical location to receive a fax.
In my opinion, the best features eFax offers are that it is easy to use and cost-effective.
From an ease-of-use standpoint, eFax is simple to log in to and receive faxes. I have also used it to send faxes and the interface is simple and browser-based, at least what I use. From a cost-effective standpoint, I haven't compared it to other competitors recently, so I cannot speak to how it compares today versus previously.
I don't know how eFax can be improved as nothing comes to mind. It's pretty good the way it is.
I have been using eFax for probably ten to fifteen years.
eFax is stable.
eFax's scalability is probably fine. I have not had to scale, so I don't really know since I'm a small shop.
I have never used eFax's customer support.
I did not previously use a different solution before eFax.
I have been using eFax for a long time, so I honestly don't remember my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing. I think it was probably fine and probably pretty easy to set up and run, but I just honestly don't remember.
I wouldn't say that I have looked at the ROI at all. It's something we just needed to have, and so we have it.
I probably looked at some others before choosing eFax, but again, it's been over ten years, so I don't remember what they were.
I would advise others looking into using eFax to consider it and have a look at it since it's worked great for me. eFax is definitely one of the solutions I would look at if I was searching for a new solution.
I have rated this review a ten out of ten.
