Today’s virtual fax has little resemblance to its predecessor. Conventional fax filled business people with dread and loathing. In contrast, virtual fax is a welcome form of convenient and cost-effective communication, simplifying processes and seamlessly integrating with established workflows.

Rafiki has 2 flavours of virtual fax: Internet Fax, a stand-alone full featured service with broadcast faxing, cover pages, and many bells and whistles, or Portal Fax which is more economical and available within the phone portal.

Virtual Fax Convenience

Virtual fax has taken the sometimes-painful process of faxing and transformed it into a simple, convenient solution. You can fax from almost anywhere – directly from your computer, tablet or mobile device.

The Virtual Fax Solution delivers your incoming faxes directly to your email as pdf attachments. This gives you the ability to print, save or forward them on to someone else.

Did you accidentally delete a fax from your email? No worries! Just log into your account in the Virtual Fax portal, and you’ll be able to see all your incoming and outgoing faxes. Simple as that!

Need to send a fax to someone? You can log into your Virtual Fax account, fill in a very user-friendly form and send from there, or you can send a fax straight out of your email – allowing you to send a fax when you’re not even in the office. Pretty cool!
