Fenestrae Faxination Server 6.0

>> About Faxination
Faxination Server was the first fax server specifically designed for
Microsoft Exchange. We have put over a decade of fax server and
Exchange integration experience into our latest release: Version 6.0.
Faxination requires no separate client software; it simply extends
Microsoft Exchange and Outlook clients with fax capabilities. This
enables users to send and receive faxes just like e-mail, directly to and
from their desktop. And it allows Faxination Server 6.0 to increase
enterprise efficiency and enhance personal productivity.
Our 9,000+ customers around the globe value the product because of its
user friendliness, stability and low maintenance, resulting in the lowest
Total Cost of Ownership in the industry.
e a se o f use
Using Faxination is literally as easy as using e-mail; anyone who can send or receive an email
can manage their fax communications, outbound as well as inbound, from their desktop. On
the individual desktop, Faxination is almost invisible since it uses the familiar user interface of
Outlook. Recipient fax numbers can be entered as one-off addressing or can be selected from
Outlook Contacts or the Global Address List. This results in satisfied users of the software and a
short learning curve, allowing fast and successful deployments even when dealing with large
numbers of users.
lo w e s t tota l co s t o f o w n e r s h i p ( tco )
It is estimated that the purchase price of IT solutions represents about 20 percent of the Total
Cost of Ownership for that solution (Source: Gartner). To put this into perspective: operations
and support (for example system downtime, user inefficiencies and learning curves) count for
around 2/3 of TCO. Where some organizations look for the lowest priced solution in the market,
other recognize the long term bottom line benefits of solutions like Faxination which are build
to reduce operations and support cost.
The key features of Faxination that will help you reduce TCO include:
Server only solution, no client software
Active Directory integration (not required)
Single point of deployment, single point of management
Add this to the improved employee efficiency as a result of the automation of manual fax
transmission, and it is clear Faxination will help your organization save real money.
Sta b i l i ty a n d R e l i a b i l i ty

Server - which is successfully implemented in some of the most demanding environments in
the world: Telecoms operators, Hosting companies, global Top10 financial institutions, Fortune
1000 manufacturing and distribution sites and the list goes on.
In those environments, our software solutions have proven their ability to run and run and run,
virtually without any attention from IT staff. Regardless of the size and type of company , it is
important you can rely on your IT systems; users depend on them and IT staff should not have
to worry about them. Faxination has successfully delivered on the promise of reliability for
