10 users worth of problems? NO thanks!
Be Warned They CHARGE for Call in support now!!

In my opinion; Norton used to make some great products. I used to recommend their Norton Utilities and Anti Virus programs to friends and install them on computers I assembled for them. Sadly, this has changed. They now have an online forum where you are forced to ask your questions. They may even get around to answering your question, but it takes days to get correct answers (if ever). The quality of their software has plummeted also. Several other companies make similar products that are FAR superior. Not only do I not give them a positive review, I strongly recommend you do NOT use them.

Systems DOES work
Keeps your computer systems in great working order. Makes your computer run faster and smarter, and keeps bugs away. Also, great online updates. Norton must be a great guy. =)

The best utilities ever !
Norton have kame the best utilities pack ever. This package have all they're software: Anti-virus Ghost, Sweep, Internet security, etc... It's a little bit expensive but it worth is price if you really want to keep your buisness safe. ... Read more

Worst fax software on the market
Our MCSE consultant spent 77 hours installing and dealing with their inept tech support. The final solution was a complete re-write of 5 of their program files (he'd already installed 5 separate and worthless patches). At the end, when we complained, they blamed our consultant and their lawyers sent us a nasty letter and a copy of their license agreement stating they were not to blame no matter what.

If you buy this product please send us a check too,since we seemed to have been an intricate part of their R & D (costing us thousands of dollars).

In all seriousness, stay away from this product.

Excellent features and amazing value
This is an amazing value. You get video capturing and editing software, a low-resolution (but perfectly functional) camera and video conferencing in a single package.

The camera that's bundled is the Logitech QuickCam Express, which has an USB interface and requires at least Windows 98 or above.

The Communicate 2000i software that comes with this bundle requires at least Windows 98, and has fax, video conferencing, email and paging features. It's ideal for laptop users who travel a lot because it works on dialup lines as well as DSL and LANs. If used on a desktop system it also allows you to securely access that system from the field (assuming that it's not behind a firewall).

If you bought this for the software alone it would represent a good value. With the included video camera this product is an outstanding bargain. ... Read more

Total waste of money
This product is the pits. Sellers should be ashamed for even carrying such a useless product. You can't fax multiple documents, their cover sheets are a joke, and God forbid you write email to their technical support staff for help because you never hear back from them. You can't even import a Word document into a cover sheet, so if you plan to use this for resumes forget it. Whoever programmed this software must never have completed the basics in programming classes because there are so many problems with this software I can't even BEGIN to list them all. Just save your money and try something else. Personally I've found Procomm to be the best program for faxing multiple documents and that's the program I'll end up buying to replace this useless Total Fax junk.

Waste of time-very unprofessional-should be"shareware"
I found this program to be a total waste of an entire afternoon. It had nocover page templates as advertised, you had to create your own in a veryawkward, slow, child-like interface. I had to fax a 5 page report I hadscanned, and I couldn't even import my saved pages into the program! Idon't know how many approaches I tried before giving up. The box saidcompatible with Win95/98, however the pamphlet said only Win95/NT. It ranslow in my Win98SE, and balked in the cover page edit mode, and Irepeatedly shut it down and reopened it trying to desparately make a coverpage. This program should be offered as a 'shareware' download. I, forsure, wouldn't have paid for it after a trial use! BUYER BEWARE!I wouldhave given this '0' stars if I could have.

Cover sheets look terrible and unprofessional
From reading the box, this product looked great.After installation, it was a different story.The box says it has professional templates to help you produce professional looking faxes.The reality is that the coversheet templates are blank pages that you create and edit from scratch.Ispent half a day trying to create a good looking cover sheet and they alllooked terrible!In addition, the alignment of the cover sheets lookeddifferent on the screen than on the actual fax printout.You also cannotimport any images other than paint images, so we could not get our companylogo on the cover sheet.Being completely frustrated by the cover sheets,I tried importing Word fax templates into the software with no success.Ialso tried using the Fax Wizard within Microsoft Word to send faxes usingthis software and that did not work either.I have advanced experience insoftware applications and I found this program extremely difficult andfrustrating to use.I would have been ashamed to send any fax using thecover sheets they had.They looked completely unprofessional.A totalwaste of time and money.

Not impressed
I would have given the program "0" stars if that had been a choice. The program was fairly easy to install and use, however, my dissatisfaction came with what was received on the other end.I wasattempting to fax a 3 page resume to prospective employeers.What they goton the other end was 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 pages, and the font size was Ariel 6point.It requiered magnification to read.The original document wasTimes New Roman 12 & 14 point.That was bad enough, but then, thejustification was all messed up and some words were run together.I sentout about 15 resumes when I finally found out what they were getting.Ihave to wonder how many of them never called me because of what they wereviewing as a professional resume? It also wouldn't let me paste in my4 scanned letters of recommendation, but I was willing to live with thatinconvenience.I returned the product and took it out of my computer. I'll pay the dollar a page (times 7 for the complete resume) to fax fromOffice Depot!This was no long term savings!

Excellent performance!
I've purchased at least 5 fax programs over the past 5 years, and none worked very well until I got this one. It loaded in no time. I opened a legal document in MS Word, and faxed it as a test, and Voila! it sent itimmediately. The copy received at the fax location was perfect.I have a56KFlex modem, and a DSL line. There was no conflict. This is astreamlined, slick program, without all the extras you don't need,use orwant. It faxes. It does group broadcasts. It does what it says it does. Buyit if you want a small and reliable piece of software. (By the way, a fewmonths ago I used iCommunicate and it ruined my Explorer file, which causedmy entire system to crash. I had to get a new computer it was so bad.! ) ... Read more

If you're running a small business but aren't ready to sink asmall fortune into a complex voice messaging system, then HotFaxMessageCenter Pro provides an extensive solution to your voice mail andfaxing needs.

Running on a Mac--with a supported voice and fax modem--HotFaxMessageCenter Pro lets you set up a multiple-tiered voice mail system inminutes. You can organize your voice mail by department or service withmailbox folders that can contain three mailbox types: standard (containsan outgoing message and stores incoming calls), info only (contains onlyoutgoing messages), and fax on demand (sends a fax to a number enteredby the caller). You can set secondary outgoing messages that are used atcertain times (outside of business hours, for example) and can even havethe MessageCenter notify you by phone or pager of messages awaiting yourattention. There is a speakerphone--unfortunately not supported by theiMac's modem--and support for caller ID and call forwarding if yourmodem and phone system are compatible.

The bundled FAXstf Pro handles faxing, and although it's a separateapplication the packages are well integrated. You also get FAXstf Pro'sfull feature set: fax from any application in 256 shades of gray forstellar document reproduction, easily organize faxes in the browser, anduse tools to immediately make notes on received faxes (handy if you wantto quickly fax back comments). With HotFax MessageCenter Pro yourbusiness can easily sound bigger--and better. --Jack Gardiner ... Read more

Program will NOT work with MAC OS 9
Sales@SmithMicro.com June 2, 2004

SmithMicro, answered as follows, when I complained that the program did not work and asked for a refund.

Unfortunately, Hot Fax Message Center Pro for Mac has been discontinued on the count of too many compatibility problems.
FAXstf 6.0.3 is still featured on our web site for $59.95, upgrade $39.95. This is sotfware strictly for sending/receiving faxes via your MAC running OS 9.

Do not waste your money on this program!

It does the job (mostly)
I've had very few problems with this software; mostly, using a US Robotics external voice modem, the caller ID isn't supported (which would be neat, as it can display incoming calls as a sticky). I was delighted that the program would let me record voice messages using the Andrea USB microphone I'd acquired with ViaVoice, for very clear messages.

The best deal is, the program comes bundled with Fax STF version 5, but that package had problems, so there is a free upgrade available from SmithMicro that will take the version all the way to 6.0.5., which bought alone is only $10 less than the entire HFMS + STF package. STF 6.0.5 is a mature full-featured fax program.

The other disappointment is HotFax originally would discriminate calls and pass off incoming faxes automatically to Fax STF. That feature seems to have been removed, even from the PDF Manual, though mention is made of it in online help docs.
And, the fax on demand feature is very slow for the incoming caller, but it does work. All in all lots of powerful features for a budget-priced program.

Works fine for me...
I have been using this software for about a year on my iMac DV. It has worked fine, and has more than paid for itself by allowing me to discontinue my phone company voicemail. I hope this, or another product with voicemail capabilities is developed for OS X.

Pure agony!
OK, I'm calmed down enough now to write a review that will not offend younger or more sensitive viewers....

I've used easily two or three dozen software packages in my life, probably more. HotFax is easily the worst I've ever come across. My short time with it was a trip through...well, through sheer torment. After I'd spent my evening installing it, I tried to get online to register it. HotFax had toasted my modem. According to my computer, I didn't even HAVE a modem after HotFax got through. Going all through the documentation didn't produce any clues. Their help desk had gone away. The middle of the night, and I was all alone with a toasted modem. As last resort, I uninstalled EVERYTHING having to do with HotFax. It's easily UNinstalled; it's only saving grace. That finally brought my modem back online, although it froze up again when I tried to access their website.

I can't find my receipt, and I just hope my friendly local store (where I buy most of my stuff) will take it back, anyway. I'm through with it. The only reason my review gave it one star is because I didn't have the option of zero stars.

My advice: go elsewhere! Don't put yourself through what I just went through. There's *gotta* be a better fax package somewhere! ... Read more
