MISFax Server

Nowadays a lot of corporations rely on the MIS/ERP system to increase their competitiveness. Very often, the MIS/ERP system generates different kinds of statements or reports needed to be sent out sometimes through emails sometimes through faxes. It is in this situation that some of these corporations find themselves that certain segments of their business operations still need to use fax to communicate either with their customers or upstream suppliers; and at times volume of this kind of fax transaction can be huge and quite often utilization peaks at certain time of the day, week, month or quarter.
