We met with a Fax over IP provider as part of our VoIP project as part of our bond. This is to reduce cost in several areas, especially ongoing support. If we can get the fax service to run only on a server instead of 100 physical devices, that'll be huge. No seperate infrastructure (TDM, IP), no required FXO/FXS ports at 40 campuses...huge cost savings, both initially and ongoing. Anyone have experience with XmediusFax? My voice guy is a bit nervous about running a VM server hosting all fax servers. He'll have to get over it .He will. He wanted me to know his concern. Duly noted. We build the DR & HA into the VM and backup solution (SAN mirror or VEEAM). Remember boys and girls, introducing change, even to technical people is painful and we are guilty of not wanting to adapt, yours truly included. I'll borrow from my former boss, this is a roller coaster you are getting paid to ride. Enjoy it.
For us, the phrase that automatically introduces ridicule is "That's the way we've always done it".
