We use RightFax as well although not with the Exchange connection - we use SMTP 
(left over from previous email system) which works ok for inbound to email - 
for sending we use either the print-to-fax driver or the full fax client.

Fax boards tend to be a bit pricey listing for near 1000 per channel.  If you 
have a VOIP switch, you MAY be able to utilize that for FOIP.

Best bet probably to have Open Text point you to a VAR in your area.

Wow..."easy/good/cheap"...

How cheap?  We are using Open Text's RightFax (formerly Captaris RightFax) with 
Exchange 2007.  Software support and hardware support for the Fax Cards is in 
the $4000 per year range for our domain; about 2000 users, and 8 Fax lines.  
Lines is NOT the same as fax numbers.  We currently have 21 fax numbers 
pointing to the server.    All users can send faxes from Outlook, and if you 
have fax lines for each user you can deliver faxes right to their mailbox.  We 
don't have those kinds of resources so we have dedicated public folders for 
departments.  You could also address the faxes to shared mailboxes.

But...I can't tell you how much the software/hardware cost us originally.  Was 
purchased before I became the Exchange/RightFax admin.

Hello all,

Since the Exchange 2010 is running we want to look into faxing with Exchange.
Receiving and sending. Any of you guys has experience with easy/good/cheap fax 
solutions?
I don't know if it makes a difference but it's for Belgium so a hosted solution 
in the US probably isn't any good for us.

Thnx!

Met vriendelijke groeten,
