your own home or office. No additional equipment is needed to
send and receive faxes. It makes a convenient replacement for

Internet, computers and your email. Although Internet faxing is
relatively new, many businesses are already using this new and
more convenient way of faxing. Saving space and time in the
process.

inbox, once you sign up to an eFax service you will receive a
toll-free or local fax number in the city of your choice. You

and your faxes will be delivered as email attachments, directly
to your inbox. Faxing from all your favorite applications is
just as easy. It's the perfect faxing solution for the mobile
professional, frequent traveler or anyone on the go; a perfect
solution to your business faxing needs.
