Nextiva Review
Nextiva Fax is one of my new online fax favorites because Nextiva Fax offers all the internet fax benefits of eFax and myfax but has the annual pricing discount of $4.95/mo., that’s $59.40 per year for all of your faxing needs. Nextiva Fax also offers 500 incoming pages in the same basic fax account and has no set up fees. Another great feature of the Nextiva Fax system is the ability to send and receive facts from Microsoft applications. That means you can simply select fax while in Word, Excel, Presentations and more. Nextiva Fax also stores all of your sent and received faxes on their secure servers so it’s ok if you delete an email or lose an old fax.
Another great feature of the Nextiva Fax offering is the US technical support. Most online fax providers have support but Nextiva Fax goes above and beyond with quality customer service reps and plenty of patience. In other words, there are no stupid questions. The system itself is similar to other internet fax offerings. Great dashboard for viewing faxes and sending faxes, easy plugins and plenty of numbers to chose from. You can also port over an existing fax number if necessary. Overall, Nextiva Fax is our new favorite for internet fax and the price is definitely right at $59.40 per year (only $4.95/mo.).
Packetel Review
Packetel is a very basic, inexpensive fax service with no fancy extras, hidden fees just basic unlimited incoming faxes for $3.95/mo. If you are only looking for incoming faxes and may be receiving a lot of them then this is for you. $3.95/mo. includes everything and can be accepted from anywhere in the world.
UPDATE: Packetel was purchased by MyFax and is no longer $3.95. The next best option is now Nextiva which is $4.95/mo. and offers the same service. Try Nextiva here or Learn more here.
Packetel runs on any network environment (e.g. Dial-up, ISDN, DSL, Cable Modem, T1, or T3 network connections) without any problems so it will work well for anyone. There is no software installation required in most computer systems. Another nice feature is you can specify up to two email addresses for receiving faxes. You can also selectively print out just the faxes that you want. They also offer a junk filter which seems to work well.
Packetel offers a 100% satisfaction guarantee and are really good at refunding if something isn’t right or doesn’t work. We’ve liked their service and highly recommend Packetel if you are looking for high volumes of incoming faxes. It truly is unlimited and worth signing up. They have an auto bill feature and if you don’t sign up for automatic billing they will not charge your credit card. Reliable, cheap and efficient.
