Pricing and Cost Advice
Information Not Available
  • "For three years, it is about 1,000 euros. It is not dirt cheap, but the price is not bad."
  • "When our three years of license were up, we bought another three years. The fate of FaxMaker will be that it will stay until the fax gateway dies out, then it won't be replaced anymore. That may be in three to five years from now."
  • "The price is okay. Other products are more expensive."
  • "The pricing is okay. It's normal, modern IT pricing. It's not not that cheap. You can't buy the licenses anymore, it's subscription-based, but that's how everybody does it."
  • "It is worth its price."
  • "If you take a three year license, it will save you a little money. However, some people say, "Fax is dead." I recommend not to overbook it."
  • "We have about 1000 faxes a month, which would take three minutes to send manually. This is 3000 minutes or 50 hours a month that the company saves by using GFI FaxMaker. To manually fax would cost us a 1000 euros a month and the license costs us a 100 euros a month, so we are saving 900 euros a month. That is a bit over 10,000 euros a year. Therefore, I think it is worth it to have it."
  • "The way we have our phone system set up and our ISP, Faxmaker saves us a ton of money. I don't know what the cost would be for a cloud-based solution, but we've purchased this software, we purchased the license, we upgraded it and, through the wonders of our internet provider, we actually almost fax for free."

    Overview

    A scalable, full software Fax over IP (FoIP) application, this is a streamlined, economical software solution to the 'fax problem' in IP networks.
    For enterprises that are adapting their workforces and realigning their business processes to newly adopted IP environments, the Alcatel-Lucent OpenTouch Fax Center is the perfect companion for faxing anywhere, anytime. Using 'boardless' FoIP technology provided by XMedius, OpenTouch Fax Center yields a significant return on investment by eliminating costly analog phone lines, hardware, maintenance and supplies.

    Integrating seamlessly with Voice over IP (VoIP) technology and the T.38 fax relay capabilities of OmniPCX Enterprise, it can be used alone or as a built-in OpenTouch feature, enriching unified messaging with fax in addition to email and voice messaging.

    GFI FAXmaker is a leading fax server for small to medium-sized enterprises. It makes sending and receiving faxes an efficient, simple and cost effective process and solves the problems with manual faxing: printing out the document, walking to the fax machine, waiting for the fax to go through, not to mention the cost of fax machine supplies and repair. GFI FAXmaker allows users to send and receive faxes directly from their email client.
