What is internet fax and how does it work?

Traditional fax machines work by transmitting and reproducing documents over a telephone line. Transmission is based on a phone number connected to an output device (usually a printer). In essence, a fax machine involves two components: a transmitter and a printer.
Ringover’s internet fax solution makes it possible to send and receive faxes without a fax machine at all. By using the internet to transmit data, documents can be sent and received through email or with dedicated software.

What is email to fax?

Email to fax allows users to forward faxes from a computer to a specific fax number. Get all of your faxes delivered securely to your inbox with Ringover’s email to fax feature. Never miss another fax with real-time alerts.

“Thanks to its integration with my CRM, Ringover means I can save time and each call is recorded in the client record, so we have traceability for conversations, which makes the biggest impact. It gives me the option of directly connecting it to my CRM, Sellsy, and it only takes 3 clicks to integrate and it’s above all very well documented on each service provider side.
The highest-impact pro is the option of connecting it to my CRM, Sellsy, and it only takes 3 clicks to integrate and it’s above all very well documented on each service provider side.
In terms of cons, cost is the only worry, as it’s expensive and each option costs a little too much”.

Anonymous user

A great tool for telephone contact with customers. It has super useful and interesting features such as filling out an aftercall record after the call, where you can label it and leave a note, whisper and listen-in option for the supervisor, after-call survey options, and the PBX set-up is intuitive. In addition, the support team is attentive and responsive. We have been with them for a year now and we won’t be going anywhere!
