How RightFax Works

Hover over to learn more about how RightFax works:
Users can send faxes directly from email, desktop applications, MFPs, or integrated business systems.
Advantage offers a wide range of hosting options to meet the needs of your organization.
In order to truly understand which solution works best for your organization, it is important to know how much of your fax infrastructure will live in the cloud according to your deployment choice. To aid in this process, we have created a visual spectrum to illustrate these core differences below.
What the spectrum means for you:
Note that the spectrum only illustrates how much of your fax system will live in the cloud. Other considerations, such as security and network requirements, are outlined further in this overview. However, the further right you go on the spectrum, the more of your fax system is managed and hosted in a cloud environment, with Pure Cloud services like Fax2Mail representing an FaaS solution that no longer functions as a fax server.
It is important to note that every configuration and RightFax installation is unique. Aside from Pure Cloud, each of the hosting options on the spectrum can be personalized to your specific network needs and cloud goals, with virtually no limits to integrations and connectivity.
Advantage Technologies offers a range of modern telephony solutions for integrating RightFax, whether on-premises or in the cloud. Legacy systems like Analog (POTS) and Digital (PRI/T1) are being replaced by IP-based telephony, such as T.38 SIP Trunks, which simplify infrastructure, reduce costs, and improve security. For cloud-enabled configurations, we provide cloud-based telephony options that streamline your fax environment and lower IT maintenance.
Key Telephony Options:
– IP-Based Telephony (FoIP): Streamlines infrastructure, reduces costs, and enhances security for on-premises RightFax.
– Cloud-Based Telephony: Connect RightFax to the PSTN via SIP Trunk Provider or RightFax Connect for agility and efficiency.
– Flexible Integration: Supports current VoIP systems or future migration plans for a future-proof fax solution.
This approach gives you the flexibility to choose the best telephony option for your current and future needs.
When you choose Advantage as your partner to integrate RightFax with email, desktop applications, and MFPs, we can help you securely send faxes with custom integration options allowing for nearly limitless RightFax integration opportunities, including:
– Web Clients
– MFPs
– Business Applications
– Desktop Clients
At Advantage Technologies, we take a consultative approach, working closely with your team to design and build a RightFax solution tailored to your unique needs. From initial consultation to post-implementation support, we are with you every step of the way, ensuring:
- Expert Guidance: We advise on the best configuration for your RightFax deployment, whether you need cloud, on-premise, or hybrid solutions.
- Custom Integrations: We help integrate RightFax with your existing business systems, such as Office 365, SAP, Epic, or any other application your organization relies on.
- Ongoing Support: Our award-winning U.S.-based support team is available to assist you with troubleshooting, upgrades, and optimizing your faxing workflows for maximum efficiency.

The Key Features of RightFax
RightFax is one of the most flexible and configurable digital fax solutions available, with advanced security, unmatched reliability, and automation capabilities that make it the most trusted choice for enterprises worldwide.
As the intelligent document processing experts, Advantage can help you design, tailor, and customize your RightFax system with a range of flexible options to meet your organization’s needs, including:
Integrating with virtually any EMR / EHR
Deliver and manage medical records, PHI and secure patient content by integrating RightFax with your EMR/EHR. RightFax has existing integrations with many leading providers, including:
These integrations deliver the flexibility to securely share PHI to provide the highest level of patient care.
Fully integrating faxing with top MFPs
Organizations with a large fleet of MFPs can use a single RightFax server to easily transmit documents from multiple MFPs rather than maintaining individual phone lines for each individual MFP.
RightFax provides fully integrated faxing with the top MFP brands, including:
Supporting FoIP / VoIP configurations
With FoIP, your organization can expect all the advantages, reliability, and security of a traditional fax server solution, but with added benefits, such as server consolidation through virtualization and a unified communications strategy that is inclusive of fax.
And, with the proliferation of SIP Trunking (we recommend Advantage-certified partners such as Cloudli or T.38Fax), you can truly leverage FoIP by sending faxes over the internet.
Key Benefits of FoIP:
- Leverages your existing VoIP network
- Eliminates fax boards
- Lowers fax telephony costs
- Lowers hardware and energy costs through virtualization
- Fits seamlessly into unified messaging and communication strategies, including SIP trunking
- Simplifies redundancy and disaster recovery
- Maximizes existing network resources and infrastructure
Helping maintain HIPAA compliance
As the most powerful digital fax solution in the industry, RightFax ensures content remains private and does not sit in open public areas with unauthorized access.
With point-to-point transmissions that are immune to viruses, malware, and interception, RightFax provides comprehensive security options to help maintain compliance and requirements for protected information including HIPAA, PCI DSS, and more.
Cloud, hybrid and on-premise deployment options
Whether you require 100 percent onsite control, wish to leverage the cloud for fax transmissions, or choose the experts at Advantage to fully manage your environment, we’ve got you covered:
- On-Premise fax delivers on security features and virtually unlimited integrations to business critical applications and network systems.
- Hybrid fax leverages the power of T.38 SIP trunking to improve connectivity, reliability, and security while limiting network workload.
- Private Cloud fax hosted on AWS, Azure, or other providers, brings power, compatibility, and scale to any enterprise.
- Hosted RightFax ensures your existing RightFax workflows, MFP connectivity, integrations and functionality are forklifted to secure, SOC1 Type II compliant, and redundant data centers.
- Pure Cloud fax provides organizations with compliant cloud-based faxing through store-and-forward technology. It offers limited features compared to RightFax.
Email-to-Fax and Fax-to-Email
With prebuilt connectors for platforms like Microsoft Outlook and Office 365, RightFax allows you to send and receive faxes directly from your email client. Advantage Technologies configures these integrations for seamless communication within your team and across your organization.
