Protect Sensitive Information in State & Local Agencies
The Role of Faxing in Government Agencies
State and local government agencies heavily rely on faxing as an essential component of their daily operations. The variety of documents ranges from authorizations and purchase orders to financial reports and tax information. Whether the purpose is internal use or communication with other businesses, the ability to efficiently and securely send and receive documentation remains imperative to the workflow of these organizations.
However, the common need to streamline workflow and decrease expenses has caused more agencies to move away from the inconveniences of traditional paper-based faxing. Aside from the excessive labor and cost associated with paper-based faxing, the key disadvantage is the inevitable lack of security when dealing with confidential information.
The Benefits of Cloud Faxing
Securing online fax services for government documents requires a high level of attention to detail due to the sensitivity of the information being transmitted. eFax Corporate stands out as a long-term cloud fax solution that offers government agencies a way to implement a comprehensive and proactive security strategy. Other beneficial features of using cloud fax include automating processes for efficiency, lowering material costs, effective record keeping, mobility, and technology that seamlessly integrates with your existing workflows.

Digital Storage
Cloud-based faxing can significantly enhance record keeping by providing an efficient and organized way to manage and store faxed documents, ultimately leading to improved productivity, better compliance, and streamlined document management processes for government agencies.
Cost Reduction
Cloud-based faxing is more cost-efficient for government agencies because there are no software or hardware expenditures.

The Upgrade from POTS
The FCC is closing the door on traditional analog copper POTS (Plain Old Telephone Service) after a 100-year run. The discontinuation of analog POTS reflects the broader trend of transitioning from traditional analog technologies to digital and internet-based communication. eFax Corporate boosts interoperability by leveraging the fact that everyone already has fax technology, as it remains one of the most widely used methods of exchanging private records world-wide.
