How does OneSuite Fax Plus work?

In addition to OneSuite Fax Basic’s capability of receiving unlimited incoming fax (please refer to the question and answer above), you can further send faxes over the Internet with OneSuite Fax Plus.

Through OneSuite Webfax Click on the “Compose” tab, enter the recipient info or choose recipient(s) from the pre-uploaded contacts or groups, preview and select cover sheet if desired, insert the document(s), verify sender information and delivery confirmation if required, review the fax, then hit “Submit.” It works very much like how you would send an email online.
