A
really
useful Powerpoint presentation showing you
why your business really does need a computerized networked faxing
solution such as NetCFax |
NetCFax
Pro is the middle level member of our networked fax system,
and is targeted at those people who have what may be best termed average
faxing needs. NetCFax Pro does
of course provide more features and functionality than the entry level
2.7 system, but equally, it does not provide as much as the top of the
range PRO+ system. In particular, the Pro releases offers a lot
more functionality in area of the handling of received faxes.
NetCFax
Pro is ideal for a great many small and even medium sized
businesses who do of course need fax sending and/or receiving
capability, but perhaps do not need or want the powerful handling
features provided by PRO+, but still find the entry level system a
little too basic to meet their needs.
The NetCFax
Pro server or clients can be installed on any of Windows 98, Windows ME,
Windows 2000 (Pro & Server), Windows 2003 Servers, Windows XP
with or without SP1 or SP2, and even the Microsoft Small
Business Servers, and finally on Windows Vista. Windows
Servers may be domain controllers or not.
The NetCFax
Pro
entry level system provides a great solution for your faxing needs, as
it not only provides a fax server, but also the
freely distributable fax client, plus a powerful and flexible command line processor
that can even popup a quick and easy to use window to allow faxes to be
created and sent to the fax server very rapidly, and the server also has
a full programmers API/SDK that will handle all data transfer,
including the TCP communications between your application and our fax
server machine across the network for you.
NetCFax
Pro
does not need you to send it an email, (although it even supports that
as well), as the fax clients communicate directly with the fax server(s)
using direct TCP and UDP connections across any network, including
across the Internet if required. All you need to do is to run the
fax client, connect and login to any available NetCFax
server, and you can then check for faxes received or create
and send faxes out. You can even connect from a hotel room using a
dial-in Internet access if you need to do so.
The fax server can even
automatically create PDF copies of all the faxes that are
received, and the Pro version can create PDF copies of sent
faxes as well.
Naturally, NetCFax
Pro
can forward copies of all received faxes by email to a single or even
multiple email addresses, allowing you to have received faxes delivered
directly to your email system or hand held email device, or even
both. If you have the PDF option enabled, you can even choose to
have the PDF copy emailed to instead of the original fax (TIF) file if
you prefer.
It can even forward all
received faxes on to another fax # if required, and this is controlled
by the fax senders CSID, so faxes form different senders can be
forwarded to different external fax recipients.
Whatever your faxing needs may be, we believe that you will discover
that NetCFax Pro
can certainly
provide almost every solution you may want.
You can install and use
the NetCFax Pro
clients on every
machine on your network if you wish, irrespective of the NetCFax license
count you may have, as the NetCFax Server
handles all control over which clients may connect to it at any
point in time. This includes having a single fax client
installation on an XP Pro used by multiple Windows logins on that machine
by taking advantage of it's "Fast Task Switching" feature,
multiple instances of the fax client running on a single (standard) PC,
and of course, a single installed Fax Client on a Domain Server can be accessed and used by multiple Remote Desktop Sessions.
NetCFax
Pro
clients can be installed and run just fine in a Terminal Services
environment on Windows Server 2000/2003, and also under different
Windows Login Accounts when used under "Fast Task Switching"
on XP Pro systems.
With this release the single installed
NetCFax client on any XP Pro system can be started and run independently
from each other, under any/every available Windows login account
(using a different NetCFax login account of course) and each fax client
can be used normally in each one even though the fax client is still
running on the same machine under other Windows logins at the
time. This applies to XP users using "Administrator",
"Limited" or "Power User" Windows login accounts as
well.
The same applies to a fax
client installed on a Windows 2000/2003 Server, as it allows multiple
Remote Desktop Sessions to use the same fax client installation, but
with individualized configurations for each NetCFax login account.
All changes made to a
client's configuration while logged in are of course only saved for that
specific NetCFax login account, and do not effect other NetCFax login
accounts at all.
