GFI FaxMaker
Electronic fax software for sending, receiving, routing and retaining fax communications.
For organisations that need electronic fax workflows connected to email, applications and telephony services.
Send, route and retain business faxes electronically
Standalone fax machines and manual handling can make it harder to distribute inbound documents, locate past communications and understand fax activity. Applications also need a way to submit faxes without relying on a separate manual process.
GFI FaxMaker handles fax communications electronically through web, email and application-based workflows. It routes inbound faxes by email, retains communications for later retrieval, and provides reporting and metadata analysis for administrators.
Where GFI FaxMaker is used
GFI FaxMaker is suited to organisations that need to send and receive faxes through email or a web interface, or submit them from business applications using APIs or print-to-fax. Automatic inbound routing directs received faxes to recipients by email, while image-to-text conversion and archiving support retrieval of retained fax communications. Administrators can review activity by user, department, fax number and status, including metadata queries through FaxMaker CoPilot.
