IsoFAX
secure High Volume Fax Delivery
IsoFax offers a centralized network fax solution for Linux and Windows. Robust fax servers combine with GUI clients, web clients, routing options, email-to-fax, and APIs to provide a complete faxing solution. IsoFax is currently used by more companies on Wall Street than any other fax solution.
The fax server monitors the queue of faxes submitted by clients, the pool of modems, and logs all fax activity. For sending faxes to large distribution lists, IsoFax offers server-side coversheets to assure uniform compliance to company standards.
Faxes may be submitted to the server by standard Windows and Unix GUI fax clients or through scripts via the IsoFax toolkit/API. Faxes may also be submitted by SMTP email, and MIME attachments can be easily processed into faxes.
Specialized features include least-cost-routing for geographically distributed fax servers, intelligent retries for resending only failed pages in a transmission, and no retries on calls determined to be non-fax calls.
Supported platforms:
Linux, Windows, Solaris, HP-UX, AIX
Modems per server:
128 digital fax modems or standard analog fax modems
More...
Client or server generated coversheets
Automatic modem rotation
Automatic retries with selectable intervals
2-D MR and MMR fax encoding
Multiple queues with selectable priorities
Logging of all fax activity
Pricing based on number of fax lines
