Introduction to CPaaS Fax
While the utilization of traditional fax machines has significantly diminished, many large enterprises continue to incorporate faxing as an integral component of their corporate infrastructure.
Although modern fax machines now support advanced features like fax-to-email and vice versa, our emphasis in developing a fax solution centers on optimizing the fax-to-email functionality.
This approach caters to the evolving needs of enterprises, allowing for seamless integration with contemporary communication systems while addressing the occasional necessity for faxing within a corporate environment.
