Contrary to what some people might believe, fax technology is still widely used today. But that doesn't mean that it can't be improved upon. Fax machines and servers are considered secure means of transmitting documents. When data is especially sensitive, it must be faxed rather than sent as an email attachment due to the easily-circumvented encryption methods that are commonly found on the channel. But email has proven to be an inherently mobile connection, allowing for universal, on-the-go access across various devices. This is thanks primarily to the concepts behind cloud connectivity.
But the enterprise eFax cloud can do so much more than just provide email and information access. Many enterprise communications besides email are ending up in the cloud – including fax.
"Here's a little cloud 101: The cloud in all of its forms (cloud communications, cloud computing, cloud call centers) has helped a lot of organizations when it comes to using data and keeping costs down," wrote TMCnet contributor Michelle Amodio. "With the cloud being a highly secure, location-independent solution, it offers options that far outweigh traditional IT services, and thus it makes for an attractive option for computing and communications needs."
Opting for a cloud-based faxing system will allow mobility and security to reign simultaneously. A software-defined environment lets faxing occur on smartphones and computers, which streamlines the process and allows for greater convenience throughout the work day. People need secure means of document transmission, but they also need mobile support in order to meet their goals in the modern day. Cloud-based fax allows for these requirements to be met and productivity to improve.
