The traditional fax machine will soon be confined to the history books as thousands of UK businesses opt for Fax to Email instead.

Fax to Email works in conjunction with non-geographic telephone numbers (e.g. 0800 numbers and 03 numbers) and does exactly as its name suggests – it enables people to receive faxes in their email inbox.

Here are 6 ways Fax to Email can benefit UK Businesses:

1) Save money. Companies don’t need a fax machine and therefore won’t have to shell out on maintaining and repairing one.

2) Save paper and resources. People only print the faxes they need. A much greener option than traditional fax services.

3) Keep confidential. Faxes arrive directly in a nominated email inbox. They’re not lying around in a shared fax machine which means private communications stay that way.

4) Forward faxes with ease. Just like a normal email people can forward faxes to other colleagues and departments at the touch of a button. This helps to ensure that important faxes go to the relevant people quickly.

5) Online control, 24/7. If people want to change the email address that Fax to Email works with, they simply login to an online portal and adapt accordingly.

6) Handpick a memorable fax number. Businesses can handpick a very memorable fax number to suit them. This can even reflect the products or services they offer.

It’s obvious why Fax to Email is fast superceding the traditional fax machine. It saves companies money, is far greener and gives people the flexibility to control exactly how their faxes are treated.

All this means it won’t be long before fax machines join Betamax videos, 7 inch vinyl records and mobile phones the size of houses, in the electronic scrapheap in the sky.
