RE: Enterprise Faxing - information gathering
I have gfi fax at some small installs, it supposedly scales out nicely but you would have to check for yourself. I just rolled out hylafax with TDMoE gateway, pretty nice, 100 users, 100 DID's. I think they paid their asterisk vendor 1,500 dollars and the server was around 2,000. ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/ ~
RE: Enterprise Faxing - information gathering
In regards to a fax solution, it depends on how sensitive your data is. We use Equisys ZetaFax, which is setup onsite. All faxes come into one server and then you can setup groups or user accounts. We have one main group that sees all faxes coming in and then they route the faxes to the appropriate user. ---___ Cameron Cooper IT Director - CompTIA A+ Certified Aurico Reports, Inc Phone: 847-890-4021Fax: 847-255-1896 ccoo...@aurico.com mailto:ccoo...@aurico.com From: Tim Wagerle [mailto:jostssad...@gmail.com] Sent: Friday, January 16, 2009 3:53 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Enterprise Faxing - information gathering I am looking into an enterprise solution for Faxing, think of a large company (2000+ employees).

We have 8 lines that plug into 2 Brooktrout TR1034 Analog Boards. Zetafax also includes a MS Office plugin so you can fax from Word, Excel and Outlook. It is a pretty simple program that we have been using for 8+ years now. ___ Cameron Cooper IT Director - CompTIA A+ Certified Aurico Reports, Inc Phone: 847-890-4021Fax: 847-255-1896 ccoo...@aurico.com -Original Message- From: Tim Wagerle [mailto:jostssad...@gmail.com] Sent: Friday, January 16, 2009 6:22 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Enterprise Faxing - information gathering We need to be able to have faxes routed to more than one individual, possible (emfast)?

For this many people, you'll want to make sure the hardware will do the job. In particular, you can't simply hang some modems off your serial ports and expect good results. You'll want fax boards built for the task - Brooktrout is one of the major vendors of these kinds of boards, and there are probably others. We happen to use Rightfax, which is one of the major players for fax software, and there are lots of others for that, too, including at least two of open source product: hylafax and mgetty.
