FaxFreedom Internet Fax
FaxFreedom from Freedom Voice Systems provides easy-to-use free software with every account and the added ability to send, receive, archive, forward, print and label faxes. Your outbound faxes are encrypted for maximum security, while your online account is password protected. Fax Freedom will alert you every time you receive a fax, via email, call-back or a message sent to your pager. You can either choose a local, toll free or vanity number, or keep your current 800 number to send faxes anywhere in the world. The service provides non prepaid and prepaid packages with many good basic features at very competitive prices.
FaxFreedom provides users a convenient and highly functional control panel, called WebLINK Personal Internet Control Panel. Using this control panel, members can send, receive and forward faxes, print, archive and label documents, customize fax settings, access send or receive reports, and perform different account maintenance activities. As this is a web based service, there are never busy signals for incoming faxes. FaxFreedom also offers unlimited fax storage capacity and caller ID capture on every incoming fax. Despite the excellent features provided by this service, it cannot schedule fax send times and it doesn’t have the ability to include multiple documents in one fax.
The service differs from other services in the respect that it doesn’t offer a certain number of pages faxed. Instead, FaxFreedom offers minutes, just like GreenFax. The basic price for 100 free minutes per month is $9.95. However, if you want a vanity number, you have to pay a one time fee of $30. For an 800 number the charge is $15, while for a local fax number it is $10 per month. Subscriptions are on a month to month basis and there is no contractual agreement.
For non prepaid plans, the customer has to pay first and last month’s rental, and first month only for prepaid plans. For instance, FaxFreedom without prepaid minutes costs $19.90 ($9.95*2) the first month and then $9.95 plus call charges every month after that. FaxFreedom 250 costs $23.70 each month. In addition, there is a one time activation fee on all non prepaid and prepaid plans. The customer can start with a non prepaid plan and upgrade to a prepaid one at a later time. The service also offers one month credit on the customers’ monthly rental for every new customer referred. Customer support is available via phone and email from 6am to 6pm PST or 9am to 9pm EST.
