Product Information

GFI FaxMaker is a fax server that allows users to send and receive faxes and SMS/text messages directly from their email client. GFI FaxMaker can save each fax digitally for easier finding and filing and it reduces the time spent sending, collecting and distributing faxes. It supports Fax over IP (FoIP) and integrates with IP-enabled PABXs, and Brooktrout’s SR 140 technology to send faxes over an IP Telephony Network. FaxMaker integrates with Microsoft Exchange 2000, 2003, 2007, 2010, Lotus Domino and MDaemon.

Features

No burden on the administrator

GFI FaxMaker is easy to install, requires little maintenance and integrates with existing messaging clients and customised solutions.

Seamless integration with existing business processes

GFI FaxMaker integrates with your mail server, allowing users to send and receive faxes and SMS/text messages using their email client. The company can also search for and back up all faxes in the same way as emails are stored and retrieved on the network.

Active Directory integration reduces administration

GFI FaxMaker for Exchange/SMTP/Lotus was designed from the ground up to minimise its administration. It integrates with Active Directory and therefore does not require the administration of a separate fax user database. User-related settings can be applied to Windows users or groups directly.

Supports Microsoft Exchange, Lotus Domino and other SMTP servers

GFI FaxMaker integrates with Exchange Server 2000/2003/2007/2010 via a standard Exchange SMTP connector. There are no schema updates to Active Directory. This makes GFI FaxMaker scalable and indifferent to new Exchange service packs and versions. GFI FaxMaker can be installed on the Exchange server or on a separate machine, in which case no software has to be installed on the Exchange server itself! GFI FaxMaker also integrates with Lotus Domino and other popular SMTP servers.

Fax over IP: XCAPI integration and support for Dialogic SDK v 6.3 – and FREE 1-year XCAPI FoIP channel

The XCAPI Fax over IP (FoIP) solution from TE-SYSTEMS is integrated within GFI FaxMaker 2011. Additionally, one channel of XCAPI FoIP will be provided for free for one year with every GFI FaxMaker license purchase; after that year, the customer can either purchase an XCAPI license or stop using it.

GFI FaxMaker also supports Dialogic SDK version 6.3, which has a lighter and cheaper version of the SR140 Fax over IP solution. As part of the 6.3 SDK release, customers can evaluate both SR140 and SR140-L without requiring a demo license. Customers can also choose to upgrade from the SR140-L to the SR140.

Automated fax delivery/inbound fax routing

GFI FaxMaker can automatically route incoming faxes to the user’s mailbox or to a particular printer based on a DID/DDI/DTMF number or the line on which the fax was received. Faxes can also be forwarded to a public folder or assigned to a network printer per installed fax port.
