Options

Option 1: Enable anyone in your organisation to send faxes

Would you like anyone in your organisation to be able to send faxes via your PumaOne service?

How can this be done?

By default your service is configured so that only authorised email addresses can send faxes. By authorising your whole domain, anyone with an email address off your domain will be able to send a fax.

Option 2: SMS notification when you receive a fax

Do you need to know immediately when a fax has been sent to you?

By upgrading to SMS Notifications a SMS (or text) message will be sent to your mobile when a fax is received for you. The SMS will contain the fax number the fax was sent from (providing it has not been withheld) and the number of pages the fax is.

Who would benefit.

Anyone who receives time critical information by fax. Eg contract maintenance workers, solicitors etc.
Anyone who wishes to use the Secure inbox (see below) to receive secure faxes but also needs to know when they have arrived

Option 3: Receive secure faxes

Are you concerned about people intercepting and reading your highly confidential faxes?

By upgrading to Secure Inbox faxes sent to you will be encrypted before being sent to your Inbox.

Option 4: Memorable fax to email numbers

A memorable fax number can increase repeat business and generate additional communications with your customers.
