How to Know When You Need to Change Faxing Providers




Having a reliable fax provider is even more important than you think! Faxing is vital in critical fields like healthcare, legal, and finance because of its reliability. Modern digital fax services provide advanced security features like end-to-end encryption, secure cloud storage, and audit trails. Varonis reports that more than 11 million businesses have adopted these solutions to guarantee secure document transmission and storage. But, how can you tell if your current fax service is helping or holding you back? In this piece, we’ll uncover the signs that it’s time for a switch and discover why Lane might just be your perfect partner for secure fax solutions.

Signs You Need to Change Your Faxing Provider

Poor Reliability and Frequent Downtime

Are you experiencing more busy signals than dial tones? Service outages can disrupt your normal business operations, leading to lost time and potential revenue. If reliability isn’t your current provider’s forte, it may be time to look elsewhere.

Security Concerns

Your provider should offer robust security features to keep your information safe. Signs of a security gap include a lack of encryption, data breaches, or non-compliance with industry standards. Remember, data protection is not just a convenience; it’s a must-have.

Lack of Modern Features

Modern businesses require modern faxing solutions. If your current service doesn’t support cloud integration, mobile access, or advanced document management, you’re missing out on efficiency boosts that could transform your operations.

Poor Customer Support

When encountering faxing issues, having a reliable support team can mean the distinction between a swift resolution and a prolonged ordeal. Inadequate support can lead to increased downtime and frustration.

High Costs

Evaluate the overall cost of your fax service. Unexplained fees and growing expenses for a subpar service are clear indicators that it’s time to look for a provider that offers more for your money.

Evaluating Your Current Faxing Needs

Before transitioning to a new provider, assess the volume, usage, and feature requirements of your current faxing needs. Identify what’s necessary for your business to function smoothly and securely. Does your provider meet current demands, and can they accommodate future growth?

Switching to a New Faxing Provider

Switching to a new provider shouldn’t feel like a complicated mission. Consider these steps for a seamless transition:

  • Ensure no interruption in service with a solid migration plan.
  • Communicate changes effectively to your team.
  • Trial the new service to ensure it meets your requirements.
