IT PAIN POINTS
4
IT pain points (1/2)
» Manual faxing is time-consuming, expensive, hinders smooth workflow
and is inherently unsecure
» An employee needing to send a fax must:
□ Print the document that needs to be faxed, including a cover page
□ Walk to the network printer to collect it
□ Take the printed document to the fax machine, potentially stopping to chat to
□
□
□
others near the fax machine or on the way
Key in the number of the receiving fax machine and press ‘Send’
Return to desk
Repeat the process to resend it if the number is busy

IT pain points (2/2)
» With multiple fax machines or multifunction devices (MFDs), all incoming
faxes are dispersed throughout the company
» Not being able to monitor conventional faxes can result in faxes being
lost or confidential information falling into unauthorized hands
» By using manual faxing, companies lose out on benefits of email, VoIP
(voice over IP) technology and their investment in unified communications
and Internet connectivity
