The time is 11:15 am and the finance department for a large industrial company has a problem.
Jim: Hey Silvia, I’m not getting send confirmations on the faxed invoices.
Slivia: Did you call IT?
Jim: Good idea, I’ll call Molly now. Hmmm, got voicemail. I’ll try the help desk. No answer, I left a message.
Silvia: Jim, if these invoices don’t get out we’re going to miss our billing deadline... let’s go down to IT and find out what the situation is.
12:15 Jim and Silvia in Molly’s office (IT)
Molly: Sorry guys, looks like the fax server is dead. We tried re-starting it but it won’t come back up. We have a call into the company and we’re waiting to hear back from them.
Silvia: Molly, by the time we get a new fax board in place and reconfigure everything we’re going to miss our billing deadlines. That will cost us and might make us miss our quarterly goal, and there will be consequences for everyone…
Molly: Silvia, I know, I know. Don’t worry, we’ll figure something out. Lance, can you please call the…
Lance: Molly, I’ve already called and put in a service call but check this out; I Googled “Fax from SAP” and this company retarus came up. Their site says they can set up a managed fax service, like a virtual fax board, in no time, I was thinking…
Silvia: Don’t think, dial! Give them a call now.
Three and a half hours later.
Frank: (Retarus engineer): well, you’re all set. Your SAP and FAP services are configured, your VPN is set up and connected, and you’re ready to start sending faxes.
Molly, Silvia & Jim: Our hero! (Hey, we said this was a dramatization)
From Failed Fax Board to Secure Managed Faxing in 3 ½ hours
This really is a true story that happened in June 2011. From the time Retarus received the call to the time the company was ready to fax, was only three and a half hours. No hardware or software to install, full connectivity to SAP and other back-end services, no complicated setup, and most importantly, no more worries about missing billing cycles.
With Retarus managed fax service you get peace of mind you can’t get with a fax server.
A few of our advantages are:
- Fast 24/7 service
- Quick implementation
- Highest level of security
- Complete transparency
- Highest Availability
- Full redundancy
- Full connectivity to your back-end systems
