I'm operating in the 20th century at my office. I want to change my fax system to an email based fax vs using a hard line fax machine. Any advice on what's new in the market and what's effective would be greatly appreciated. tks!

Are you a one man shop? Or do you want something more comprehensive?

I've been using Callwave for almost a year now. Love it.

One for now, but there will eventually be 3 of us in the office. Thanks in advance! Chi

I used eFax for a while, but they basically eliminated the free version and I hated the fact that their file formats were proprietary. I looked again today and they are fairly pricey.

Callwave is a service that gets you a couple things for $8/month per "line".

1) 1 local number with voice mail for inbound phone calls... this number can be pointed to roll all calls over to any phone line you want.
2) Voice mail on this phone.
2) 1 Fax number that sends faxes as PDF to your email. I think this is unlimited pages, unlike eFax.

eFax is more than $8/month just for a fax number with a page limit.
