Gone are the days when the ubiquitous fax machine was the centerpiece in any office environment. As old as land lines and dial-up internet, you would think that faxes would have already become obsolete. Instead, fax machine technology has simply changed to make sending information via faxes faster, easier, and more secure than ever. In fact, the market for fax machines is predicted to grow at a CAGR of 5.3% from 2019 through 2030 — underscoring the improved connectivity and continued utility of this piece of office equipment.

However, a new technology is helping to keep faxing an important part of the business environment — secure digital faxing.

Exploring the Future of Fax in a Fast-Paced Business Environment

Many industries still rely on fax machines for the fast, efficient sharing and transfer of information. In fact, more than 90% of healthcare providers still use fax machines to transmit data. Other industries such as government, real estate, manufacturing, and finance also continue to use fax machines to support day-to-day operations. In fact, today’s faxing does not even closely resemble the onerous and largely unsecure fax tasks of yore. Modern digital faxing provides many advantages over slow, error-prone traditional faxing. For example, Perry proTECH’s innovative new integrated secure fax capabilities includes important benefits for business users, such as:
