Faxing, Digital or Traditional

Fax that arrives the way you want it: as a PDF in your email, in your Clarity portal, or on the fax machine you already own through an adapter.

Plenty of industries still run on fax for permits, titles, insurance, and medical paperwork. Clarity keeps you in that loop whichever way you fax: by email, which is how most customers do it, through your Clarity portal, or through the machine already sitting in your back office.

Every fax is tracked and searchable like email, and your fax number rides your phone system instead of a dedicated analog line.

Fax options

Online Faxing (eFax)

The fully digital option. Faxes arrive in your email as PDF files and send from your computer, with no busy signals, no paper, and no ink cartridges to replace.

Premium Fax Service

For businesses where a failed fax is a failed job. Premium plans send over traditional phone lines rather than your internet connection, so a fax does not depend on your internet connection.

Fax Adapters for Existing Machines

An analog telephone adapter connects the fax machine you already own to your Clarity system. Your staff keeps the exact same routine while the dedicated fax line goes away.

Portal Fax Options

Fax numbers, delivery history, and per-user routing are managed in the same portal as the phone system, so a fax is searchable and forwardable alongside every other record.

What it does for your business

For Service Franchisees

Send and receive faxes by email or from your online account. Permits and work orders arrive as PDF files, no machine required.

For Auto Dealerships

Titles, payoffs, and insurance docs fax in and out digitally, tracked like email.

Frequently asked questions

QUESTION: Do I need a fax machine or phone line for this?

ANSWER: Not for digital faxing. Faxes send and arrive through your email as PDF files and through your Clarity Voice portal, where you can read, forward, and file them. If you would rather keep your machine, an analog adapter connects it to the same system.

QUESTION: What is the difference between eFax and Premium Fax?

ANSWER: Online faxing (eFax) travels over your internet connection and is the lower-cost, fully digital option. Premium Fax uses traditional phone lines instead, so faxes still go out when the internet is slow or down. That makes it the right choice when faxing is critical to the business.

QUESTION: Can I keep my existing fax number?

ANSWER: Yes. Existing fax numbers port to Clarity Voice the same way phone numbers do, so letterheads and vendor records stay valid.

QUESTION: Is electronic faxing reliable enough for legal documents?

ANSWER: Yes. Each fax has a delivery record, and PDFs preserve the document exactly, which is why titles, payoffs, and permits are the most common documents our customers fax.
