Welcome to another Getting Started with RingCentral guide! In this session, we'll walk you through how to send faxes using the RingCentral Desktop app, Mobile app, and your online account.
What is online faxing?
Online faxing is an essential feature of RingEX Advanced and Ultra plan that allows you to send and receive faxes over the internet using a digital fax service, like RingCentral. This eliminates the need for a physical fax machine and a traditional phone line. You can send faxes directly from your computer or mobile device, and they'll be delivered as a PDF to the recipient's fax machine or online fax account. You can also use this feature through online faxing plans.
Importance and benefits of online faxing
- Eliminate Hardware and Costs: Say goodbye to expensive fax machines, dedicated phone lines, and maintenance fees. Online faxing is a software-based solution that significantly reduces your operational expenses.
- Easy Organization: Digital faxes are automatically stored in your secure online account, making it simple to organize, search, and archive important documents without needing physical file cabinets.
- Fax from Any Device: Send and receive faxes from your computer, tablet, or smartphone using the RingCentral app. This is perfect for remote teams, mobile professionals, and anyone who needs to manage documents on the go.
- Never Miss a Fax: With online faxing, your fax number is always available. You won't get a busy signal, and incoming faxes are managed in the cloud even if you are on the phone or receiving another fax.
