In a world where information travels at lightning speed, keeping a tight grip on your communications is essential. Whether you’re overseeing laboratory results, handling sensitive legal documents, or managing enterprise operations, fax message tracking ensures that every transmission is accounted for, delivered on time, and securely managed.

As an application within Passport’s Personal Communications Center, Lane’s message tracker diligently monitors the status of every fax within your system. It is invaluable for organizations seeking rigorous compliance, accuracy, and efficiency,  while shining as a favorite feature in Lane’s client case studies, showcasing its effectiveness and impact.

How Does Fax Message Tracking Work?

Lane’s Message Tracker functions as a control hub for real-time tracking and management of your faxes. Once the client application is installed and synced with Lane’s Passport Fax Server, users gain access to a comprehensive dashboard that logs, timestamps, and monitors all incoming and outbound communications.

With the tracker, users can:

  • Monitor fax deliveries as they happen.
  • Retrieve and analyze details for up to 365 days of fax history—a lifesaver during audits or legal investigations.
  • Investigate delays or unsuccessful faxes right from the interface.

Message Trackers Notify You of Fax Delivery Status & More

Whether it’s a lab result that’s time-sensitive or a legal document with deadline constraints, knowing the status of your fax delivery holds immense value. Users rely on the message tracker client application to verify successful transmissions and overhaul failed ones. It serves as eyes into the faxes’ journey, giving them the ability to peek into the content of received and sent faxes.

Here are some additional benefits of using Lane’s fax message tracker:

The message tracker is equipped to notify users of large queues caused by server or application issues, allowing them to address problems promptly. It also identifies obstacles like failed ports preventing transmissions or document conversion errors that require immediate attention.

It Keeps Accurate Timestamps for Tracking 

The message tracker records precise timestamps for all faxes sent and received, offering a detailed log for reference. This ensures that each document is delivered to the correct recipient with verifiable time and date stamps.

It Keeps an Audit Trial

The message tracker ensures regulatory compliance by maintaining a comprehensive record of all faxes sent and received. This secure and detailed documentation provides a reliable audit trail to meet legal and industry standards.

It Can Reduce Unnecessary Costs
