    Cumbersome, does not 'auto add' Contacts, cannot re-send fax if it fails

    Date: Aug 21 2023
    Summary

    Very archaic and difficult to use. You cannot easily add contracts, move faxes to folders, etc. I am not happy with our decision to go with WestFax.

    Positive

    Inexpensive and easy to set up. I have nothing else positive to say.

    It is inexpensive and it is easy to set up.

    Negative

    If a fax fails, you cannot re-send; must build new.
    It does not ask you to add a Contact automatically.
    It is difficult to move faxes to other folders
    Your view of faxes you send or receive lists numbers only rather than Contact name so you waste a lot of time peeking through multiple faxes to go back to one you previously want.
    Thus far, Customer Service has not had any answers we need. A person answers, does not identify themself then seems to be fumbling around same as me.

    Good Service for small medical practice.

    Date: Mar 12 2021
    Summary

    We signed up for a free trial where they gave us a temporary fax number. We tested the service with a few doctors that could never get a fax to come through to us with our previous fax provider. The WestFax service worked for a 72 page medical record and was insanely clear.

    Positive

    Ease of use. Easy to port our number. Nice people to work with. Clear faxes with no fuzzy images. HIPAA Compliant.

    Negative

    Nothing we didn't like about the service. Works great.

    The Best Porting Experience

    Date: Jul 02 2021
    Summary

    Migrating to WestFax, a better service provider, was easy. We were able to carry on with business as usual throughout the transition process. The team assisted us with customizing the fax solution to work for us, the way we wanted it to work. The setup was flawless.

    Positive

    My number porting experience was truly superior compared to the previous company that was servicing us.

    Negative

    My prior carrier made it difficult to release my number, but WestFax assisted me throughout the process. Bringing my fax number over was important to ensure that we stayed available for our customers.

    Great HIPAA Compliant Fax Service.

    Date: Mar 09 2021
    Summary

    It's so nice to find a company that you appreciate doing business with. From the web portal to the personal service they offer we couldn't be happier with our experience. Because we're a medical office we needed HIPAA Compliance. The WestFax team knew exactly how to handle this and sent us a BAA to sign.

    Positive

    The WestFax user portal works great to send and receive medical records and we can even use the Android App if our doctors are not in the office. You can actually call them and speak to a US based human to help with questions. Kristen did a great job walking us through the set-up process. We started with a free trial account, then ported our fax number to WestFax. The porting process was smooth without any glitches.

    Negative

    I really can't think of anything. The WestFax team was really great to work with.

    WestFax is awesome!

    Date: Feb 04 2021
    Summary

    Like Barry and am looking forward to working with WestFax for our HIPAA compliant faxing. He made the process so easy to set up and get going. We now have a functioning Fax number in less than 10 minutes. He also has some helpful videos to support you on his website. Looking forward to working with him and his company!

    Positive

    All we had to do is give Barry a call at WestFax and he walked us through the process of setting up our account. We were all set in less than 10 minutes! Pretty awesome! Looking forward to working with WestFax and simplifying our processes here at the office. Barry was extremely helpful!

    Negative

    So far, I have no complaints about WestFax or Barry the owner. It took only 10 minutes for him to help us set up our account and we are looking forward to having a good working relationship in the future.

    Great for Android tablet use!

    Date: Mar 11 2021
    Summary

    The service works perfectly. I had our providers download the Android app on their phones so we could send patient records to their smartphones and they love the interface. We had another service that was not HIPAA compliant so it's a relief to know our records are now safe on the WestFax network.

    Positive

    We use tablets in our medical practice for patient intake and medical charting. The WestFax Android App works seamlessly with the desktop interface to send and receive patient records via fax. It's so easy to use.

    Negative

    I had a Windows problem on my desktop I had to resolve before the desktop portal would work on our old IE browser. Our fault, not theirs.

    Very Good API documentation for HIPAA Fax.

    Date: Apr 26 2021
    Summary

    WestFax did a great job helping us with a pretty complex migration away from RightFax. Their pricing was less than half and there were no crazy terms and maintenance contracts. All thumbs up from a very large fax user. These guys know their stuff!

    Positive

    Super easy to integrate. They have live staff in the US to help users integrate. The service is also HIPAA Compliant which is awesome.

    Negative

    We didn't have any problems at all. I'll update if we experience any.

    Easy to use API

    Date: Jul 02 2021
    Summary

    Cost effective, secure fax that works. Many API functions to make sending fax convenient from a dev perspective.

    Positive

    Simple, straight forward API interfaces that are easy to integrate.

    Negative

    Some support issues to begin with, but they have just stood up a new and better support portal. Very helpful.

    Solid product, easy to use, API for integrating it to apps

    Date: Dec 02 2020
    Summary

    Overall, it works very well and is extraordinarily easy to set up and use. They seem to understand the healthcare space & HIPAA extremely well and were able to check all of the boxes for privacy & security.

    Positive

    Very simple, reliable, easy to use. Very affordable. For situations where security/privacy are critical, WestFax has strong measures in place (e.g. fully HIPAA compliant). Also has an API for integrating it to apps.

    Negative

    Can't really think of anything that I don't like.

    Best fax service for integration

    Date: Dec 09 2020

    Working in medical and legal consulting areas, security and PCI/HIPAA compliance are extremely important to me and my clients. Very happy with WestFax service.

    Positive

    Easy to implement API, excellent documentation and customer support. Dependable service and PCI/HIPAA compliance is very important for my clients.

    Negative

    Nothing I can find, and that’s saying something...

    WestFax is reliable, easy to use and secure.

    Updated: Dec 02 2020
    Summary

    Fax provides more security and compliance than email, it’s our preferred document delivery method. This is a cloud based solution that we can rely on.

    Positive

    WestFax ensures that business-critical documents and faxes are sent/received instantaneously with encryption and guaranteed delivery. I am able to transmit digital, high-resolution, color documents fast and securely using fax servers as well as today’s popular messaging platforms and applications.

    Negative

    I would like to see more integrations with EMR and SSO SAML

    Great Fax platform! Easy to setup and use

    Date: Dec 09 2020
    Summary

    I like using the Fax to Email the most. Super easy to send a fax. I have never lost a fax or had a fax fail to go through. Consistency is king for me. The Faxtools are pretty awesome too. Love the autoprint functionality!

    Positive

    I switched from efax a few years ago and never looked back. I love that I can call up and get a real person and not put in a queue to get the most basic of support. I also love how fast my faxes send and I get all my faxes in my inbox which makes it very easy to manage. Love FaxTools too!

    Negative

    I don't have any complaints honestly. I'll update this if I think of any.

    WestFax API For the Win!

    Date: Oct 21 2020
    Summary

    Easy to setup the API for our outbound fax process. We spent a few weeks with another solution which ultimately was not HIPAA compliant and failed half the time.

    Positive

    -Great documentation
    -Easy to send fax
    -Great support.
    -Dependable
    We got the solution up and running in 2 days straight. Way faster than other ones.

    Negative

    -Wish I found them sooner. Spent too much time with competitor.

    API easy to deploy! Best Fax API platform

    Date: Dec 11 2020
    Summary

    I had to write a tool to automatically download faxes as they show up. It was easy to setup an app that checks the api every 5 minutes and downloads the the fax file to a local folder. I had some trouble with Base64 format but I figured that out on my end. Works like a charm.

    Positive

    Great documentation and code samples. I needed code for Python and C# and was able to get some code from the autodocs and an SDK.

    Negative

    More code samples and snippets. The stuff on the site was good but I am lazy and want to code less ;)
