Confidently Manage Sensitive Student Data

Easily Handle High Volumes of Sensitive Information

Schools and educational institutions have decentralized administrative departments, making it challenging to manage high volumes of important files and documents — from student records to balance sheets.

eFax Corporate offers a reliable platform for schools and educational institutions to send and receive large volumes of highly sensitive data safely and reliably.

Streamline Your Staff Workflows

Multiple departments in schools and universities need access to the information of hundreds of students. Sharing this sensitive information efficiently while maintaining data security is a difficult balancing act.

eFax Corporate enables your staff to safely send and receive faxes from any connected device while ensuring the student’s Personally Identifiable Information remains confidential.

Manage Your Fax Network Remotely

IT professionals traditionally use a large network of aging desktop fax machines, expensive telco lines and costly in-house fax servers to support the high volumes of faxes at educational institutions.

eFax Corporate’s cloud-based faxing solution eliminates the need for on-site fax machines and servers, making it easier for IT professionals to manage your fax network remotely.

Cut Down on Overhead Costs

Sending faxes physically is inherently costlier than online faxing when you incorporate costs related to resources, supplies and maintaining the fax machines themselves.

eFax Corporate is a cost-effective alternative to bulky fax machines and paper faxes. Its cloud-based solutions let you send and store faxes online, cutting down considerably on overhead costs.
