Fax communications are still an important part of daily business processes and IT executives continue to look for ways to enhance productivity with new technology and best practices.  Many companies have legacy fax systems in place and the time to evaluate outsourcing has never been better considering the economic climate in today’s marketplace.

IT executives must decide whether to continue to maintain legacy fax systems and improve on them using fax server infrastructure, or consider an outsourced solution to meet the company’s fax needs.  With an outsourced IP faxing solution, there is the potential for greater standardization of processes and the ability to receive comprehensive service from the provider including security and regulatory compliance requirements.  It also enables an organization to contribute to ‘Green IT’ reducing paper, toner and disposal costs.

One of the most powerful features the Premiere Global Fax2mail web interface gives you is the ability to check the status of your faxes on line.  To do this go to http://www.premiereglobal.com/desktop-fax-online/ and logon to your fax2mail account.  Once logged in click “sent faxes”.  From this screen you can select your search criteria, the first option is the status of the fax, all, successful only or unsuccessful only and then select how far back you would like to go.   Premiere Global retains the history for 30 days. Once your query is returned you can sort the data by Date/Time, Recipient, Status, Pages, subject or Reference. In addition, the web interface also allows you to resend a fax, whether successful or unsuccessful.  Just click the resend icon and you will be prompted to accept the original number or allowed to change it to an alternative number.  Once you enter the fax number, you are asked “Are you sure you want to resend this fax?” just click “Yes” to send or “No” to go back to the sent fax page.
