Momentum is turning Teams into a virtual fax machine with the release of its Teams fax application.
By enabling cloud faxing within Teams, you can make sending a fax as straightforward as sending an email, as the digital information delivery system utilizes Portable Document Formats (PDFs).
The global managed services provider Momentum yesterday introduced ‘Momentum Teams Faxing,’ which it believes can ‘revolutionize’ business faxing, free up communication lines, and remove the need for other hardware or software.
Brandon Bradley, VP of Modern Work Innovation at Momentum, commented on the significance of the application:
“The Momentum Teams Fax Application modernises traditional faxing by pivoting fax into another collaboration channel within the Teams client, allowing organisations to streamline fax into existing workflows without the need for third-party services or integrations.”
Key Features of Momentum Teams Faxing
Momentum’s related press release highlights four key features of its Teams faxing solution.
First, you can ‘fax from anywhere’ using a desktop, smartphone, tablet, or fax machine, enabling workers to send and receive faxes whether they are at home, in the office, or out and about.
Second, users can keep control and visibility of their critical documents by storing them with the Microsoft Teams tenant.
Third, the HIPAA-compliant solution can offer secure cloud faxing thanks to its investment in document security.
Finally, it is a highly cost-effective option, reducing and entirely eradicating the need for traditional copper phone lines, as well as slashing paper and ink usage. It will even mean fewer service calls, according to the MSP.
There are further benefits listed on Momentum’s website, too, such as fax-to-email integration options, the ability to easily block spam, and full stack networking through a range of services like Teams Phone, SD-WAN, and SIP trunking.
Users can leverage existing numbers or add new toll-free numbers and then either send faxes manually or schedule them to be sent at a later time.
