Re: Fax to Email Service - Opinions Wanted

Hi,

This will work with our Virtual Numbers as well, so if you didn't want to publish your main number as a fax number, you can simply add a V-Number and publish that instead. The difference in could would be that of adding a V-Number. We're doing it this way to keep overhead as low as possible, as we want this to be a cheap enough solution that its viable for home users w/light usage, as well as the more obvious target of business customers.

Currently, we're leaning towards a small monthly charge (few bucks) that includes X number of faxes, and then allow upgrades from there.

Re: Fax to Email Service - Opinions Wanted

For a breakage-based monthly fee, $1.95 would be my limit.

For the truly occasional recipient, a few months of a fee makes it a rather expensive convenience option. As a compromise, maybe a minimum fee in months when a fax is received is an option? That, in conjunction with an "approved senders" list could keep it affordable.

I assume blacklisting, for when I'm not shopping for Disney vacations, works with incoming FAX, too.

I would assume that incoming fax calls would also be affected appropriately by the custom call routing feature of the VT service. I would want to avoid paying for faxes from spammers.

Re: Fax to Email Service - Opinions Wanted

We're looking at it this way...

For the occasional faxer, a 2nd number is not necessarily something they would need or want if it would in fact increase the cost of the plan.

For a business, if a 2nd number is necessary, the $4 for the number most likely wouldn't be a show-stopping fee.

It would seem to make more sense to get a CallCentric DID for $1.95/month + $2.37 E911 fee and $0.015/min. The Fax Reception feature is free with all of their accounts. If you presume that you can receive one page in one minute, you could receive 45 pages per month, have your own DID and pay the E911 fee for $5.00/month.
