Amazon.com Product Description

FAXserve is a network fax solution that allows users to send and receive faxes directly from their PCs, store faxes in electronic files, and share fax hardware with other users on the network. Use FAXserve as an add-on to e-mail, unified messaging, CRM, ERP, e-commerce, and business-to-business applications. You can annotate faxes onscreen and archive them directly to your network. FAXserve offers several desktop-routing methods, including support for DID phone lines.

FAXserve for Windows consists of centralized fax services running on a Windows NT or 2000 server, along with client software that integrates with MAPI and Internet-based e-mail systems running on your workstation. Fax messages are composed, addressed, and sent just like e-mail. Fax numbers can be stored in a single address book individually or together with e-mail addresses. When a fax arrives, it appears in your message inbox just like e-mail. You can use the same commands you use for e-mail to review, forward, save, or print your fax.

FAXserve supports Microsoft Domain Security for message integrity and privacy. Once you log onto e-mail, FAXserve immediately verifies your authorization level to send and receive faxes. For additional security, only the intended recipient can view a received fax.

Note: This is an upgrade for a 25-user, unlimited port license. This upgrade is for owners of FAXserve for NT 3.x and 5.x to FAXserve for Windows 6.0, FAXserve NetWare to Windows 6.0 upgrades, or competitive upgrade. ... Read more

Amazon.com Review

When you think of fax software, inevitably you think of Symantec'sWinFax Pro, a utility that's been around for many moons, but has evolved beyondrecognition since its first release. That said, its basic faxing functionalityremains unchanged and as solid as ever. Along the way, it has picked up someuseful bells and whistles. The new version now can be set up as a fax server onsmall peer networks. It originally integrated with Microsoft Exchange andOutlook, and the new version extends this integration to Outlook Express and thecontact manager, Goldmine. Now, you can "e-mail" a fax to a recipient--thisoddish option sends a 60 KB fax-viewer program as an attachment with the faxfile.

Nice touches abound; you can schedule a fax broadcast to multiple recipients,and set it to spool to two modems. WinFax Pro also can notify you of incomingfaxes via a system-tray icon, cell telephone, or pager. If you need to turn anincoming fax into editable text, you can do it with its built-in OCR facility;although this is more of a "lite" version, and not quite as accurate as currentstandalone OCR packages.

There's a new Drag and Drop Depot icon on the desktop for quick dispatching ofdocuments. A new high-quality photo option improves print quality at the cost ofextending transmission times. If you're plagued by junk faxes, there's a newspam filter; although first you'll need to get a modem that supports Caller ID,and subscribe to the service with your phone company. When you buy a modem thesedays, often you'll get a "lite" fax program with it; if you only need tosend/receive faxes occasionally, this is probably sufficient. However, if faxingis a key element of your work, you'll want something a bit better; somethingwith a bit more power. WinFax Pro 10.0 more than fits the bill. --RogerGann ... Read more

WinFax Pro 10 Problems
I started with Winfax Pro v4.0 for Networks. It was hard to install, configure and manage. But it worked for me once the hard part was over. I have a customer who I upgraded to v10.0. We went from Win98, Winfax Pro 4.1 and a Celeron 400 to Win2K, Winfax Pro v10.0 in a P4-2.0 Ghz machine. Everything on the machine pretty much works as expected... EXCEPT WINFAX PRO 10!
People that have been sending without problems for years can not send to this machine now. I have tried everything except trashing WinFax and nothing seems to make a difference no matter what I change. I have reinstalled the program. I have modified almost every setting (and changed them back when they did not solve problem). I got the best results when I hard set the program to receive faxes only at 4800 baud (should run 14400). Somehow it seems to try to negotiate, then it falls back to the next slowest speed, negotiates again, falls back, etc until it either dies or receives inconsistently at 4800. I have changed phone lines, running a cable direct to telco network interface, etc. etc. etc and still no reliable reception or sending. Not to/from a fax machine or to/from a computer. I must have 12-15 hours in working on this and still no success. It still could be one of the few things I have left to try like another computer, hard setting the COM ports in CMOS, or anything else I can think of. One thing that has not helped me is the Symantec web site.

WinFax is not a winner
Struggle to install, struggle to keep working, some nice features if they will work when you want them.

If you can find another program to meet your needs, try it.

The Weak Link in Symantec's Chain
I originally bought WinFax many years ago, and was perfectly happy with it up through version 9.0. Unfortunately, Symantec appears to have overreached itself with version 10.0. Other reviewers mention the potential conflicts with newer versions of Windows and Outlook 2000. As far as I can tell from reviewing FAQs at Symantec's support website, the problem is incompatibility with Outlook 2000, specifically relating to WinFax's promised ability to send faxes by e-mail. Like me, you might decide that you don't need that feature and skip installing it, but it still seems to trash the program itself. And, since WinFax automatically integrates with SystemWorks and other Symantec programs, it ends up trashing them as well. So what, you say, I'll just uninstall all of them and start over. Good luck! Symantec programs never full uninstall, so the problem's still there when you reinstall. I finally uninstalled WinFax and replaced it with a shareware program that costs [price], is simpler and more intuitive in its operation, and actually works. In summary, wait for version 11.

Big Problem Under Win 2000
WinFax Pro is NOT COMPATIBLE WITH WINDOWS 2000, according to my experience and that of many others. It crashes the computer when it attempts to install. Tech support is no help; Symantec either does not realize their software has a problem or will not admit it. (My system: Micron Millenia Max 1.2GHz, 256MB, Nvidia GeForce2 GTS, Aztech PCTel V.90 56K.)

The elusive support department.
If you buy this product, be prepared to go it ALONE! The technical support is not very supportive and I have a program that does everything advertised except send faxes. There seems to be a problem with the dialer that does not add the 1 prefix when dialing a long distance number. I got it to work by adding a 1 manually and asking it to dial the number as read but this precludes using my pim as a number source . ... Read more
