OpenText unveils RightFax 10.5
OpenText has announced a new release of RightFax 10.5, which includes an Internet connector for transmitting faxes across the Internet, allowing users to send and receive faxes at Internet speeds with more intuitive administrative controls.
The RightFax Internet Connector provides a non-telephony route to send faxes to other RightFax users. The fax is routed via the connector to another RightFax Fax Server anywhere in the world, eliminating telephony charges.
Because the fax is transmitted via the RightFax Internet Connector, businesses can now send hundreds of pages exponentially faster than via traditional faxing over the public switched network or PSTN.
Each RightFax fax number used by the RightFax Internet Connector is individually registered and verified, helping to ensure that each number belongs to the intended recipient. Each fax transmission is also encrypted for higher information security and privacy.
A Web Services API is now available to integrate with RightFax for custom applications independent of vendor, platform, and language.
An OpenText eDOCS connector is also available to support full functionality between OpenText eDOCS 5.3, OpenText's content management solution for law firms, and RightFax.
SAP Connector now includes Unicode support and System Landscape Directory (SLD) registration, while a new personalised, interactive connector is now available for Hewlett-Packard OXPd devices.
RightFax now de-skews incoming fax images to help correct their orientation. In addition, images are de-noised to remove scan artifacts and transmission noise.
The overall look and feel of the RightFax FaxUtil, Web Client, and Enterprise Fax Manager have been redesigned and updated with new icons to provide a fresh look without changing the functionality to which users are accustomed.
Each fax image is stored in its own individual subfolder, facilitating consistent server performance over time, and RightFax now leverages Microsoft Message Queuing (MSMQ) for scheduling and delivering outbound faxes, which efficiently processes high volumes of documents, and allows full scalability and utilisation of RightFax licensed channels.
RightFax 10.5 comes prebuilt with enhancements to take advantage of the OpenText Cloud, a platform for Enterprise Information Management built with new wholly-owned subsidiary EasyLink.
