Help choosing Fax server software

[starwarsdad]

I have a client that wants to use fax server software. They have about 15 users and 2 fax lines (1 inbound 1 outbound). The clients are 2000 Pro and the servers are 2000 Server.

What are some choices that the folks here at Anandtech have experience with and can recommend or recommend that I stay away from.

Thanks!

In 2000 I did some work for a startup company (Cornerstone) in Indianapolis that had a product that was a Fax server for both Windows and the AS400.

Thanks for the lead!

Looks like it requires an i Series server but can Windows clients can connect to it. I need something that can run on 2000 Server and have 2000 Pro clients connect to it. I poked around the site. Do they have a Windows Server version that I missed?

Thanks!

I setup a hylafax server on linux (free) it was a PITA but got it working. The free windows clients were someone lacking and not acceptable in a corporate setting. Anyway we have about 35 to 40 people setup on Fax Launcher Pro. mail.com Each user to setup is $25 and it's $0.10 per page. We cut our faxing costs from well over $1,000 /month to about under a couple hundred dollars a month. Sets up as a printer and prints from any windows application. Sends it via smtp via their email account out on the net and mail.com fax servers take care of it from there. End users get a confirmation email of a successful fax.

WinFAx Pro have also have a small business size setup for what you need.

I had used V10 for a non-profit of 6-8 clients.
