Fax lines still needed
Quote from Minnil Gron on July 10, 2025, 3:47 pmI’ve heard that some companies still use “fax lines,” which seems outdated. Are modern businesses actually using physical fax machines, or has everything moved to digital platforms now?

Quote from Brenda Zend on July 10, 2025, 3:55 pmThat’s a common misconception. According to ask4research.info today’s faxing isn’t done through traditional machines or analog phone lines. Digital fax services operate entirely online, allowing you to send and receive faxes through your email, web dashboard, or mobile device. You don’t need a physical line—just an internet connection. It’s not only faster and more convenient but also provides added features like encryption, delivery confirmations, and integration with cloud storage. So while “fax” still exists, the physical machines and phone lines have mostly been replaced by secure, scalable digital solutions that are far more efficient.
