## OpenText Fax (RightFax) Reviews
  ### 1. Unreasonable billing practices

**Rating:** 0.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Catherine R. | Office Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 23, 2024

**What do you like best about OpenText Fax (RightFax)?**

The service was fine when we had it. The service was no longer needed when we switched EHR systems.

**What do you dislike about OpenText Fax (RightFax)?**

There are several issues that we encountered throughout our time with OpenText RightFax. It was impossible to get clear communication and responses. We did not know who our account contact was so we spent lots of time emailing other individuals without success. When it came time to close our account, they continued to bill us in error. They have been unreasonable and unresponsive in order to get the issues resolved. Beware that you may be billed and unable to contest the incorrect billing practices.

**What problems is OpenText Fax (RightFax) solving and how is that benefiting you?**

They were helping us file faxes automatically but we still had a lot of manual labor required as well.

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Utilities | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 29, 2022

**What do you like best about OpenText Fax (RightFax)?**

One of the best product for paperless fax that can be seamlessly integrated with digital and traditional analog fax machines and VOIP. Used this product extensively for handling high volume of incoming and outgoing faxes. Paper faxes converted to electronic documents can be easily ingested into various business processes managed in enterprise applications like OpenText Content Server, OpenText Archive Center, IBM FileNet, IBM Lotus Notes, Microsoft Exchange Server etc.

**What do you dislike about OpenText Fax (RightFax)?**

Not so widely used, hence you may find difficulties in finding enough documentation and sometimes finding the proper support from vendor.

  ### 5. RightFax is a dependable and reliable EFax solution

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Brian C. | Senior Infrastructure Engineer, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 24, 2021

**What do you like best about OpenText Fax (RightFax)?**

RightFax just works, it's very flexible in its feature set and is compatible with most business needs. Our users have easily picked up the software with little to no training, and administrating the software is very hands-off after the initial setup.

**What do you dislike about OpenText Fax (RightFax)?**

As with many software vendors, their support is less than stellar. On multiple occasions, we have seen closed tickets or lack of response to tickets being opened.

**Recommendations to others considering OpenText Fax (RightFax):**

RightFax is one of the cheapest fax solutions out there, and with Fax being a dying breed, cost is what it is all about.

**What problems is OpenText Fax (RightFax) solving and how is that benefiting you?**

A robust Efax solution at a reasonable price was our reason to go with RightFax. This has allowed us to continue business with vendors who utilize fax, without the need for traditional fax lines and machines.

  ### 6. Great Way to Fax

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Insurance | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 05, 2019

**What do you like best about OpenText Fax (RightFax)?**

The simplicity of clicking print and picking the RightFax printer is great.  You no longer need to go to the fax machine, punch in the correct numbers and then hope it gets to the right place.  With rightfax you can check to see what the status of the fax is throughout the whole process.

**What do you dislike about OpenText Fax (RightFax)?**

There is not really anything I do no like about it.  Sometimes I have to restart the print spooler on services to get it to go, but I believe that is an Windows issue.

**What problems is OpenText Fax (RightFax) solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The ability to fax right from your desktop.  Quick and easy.

  ### 7. Great product!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jennifer B. | Help Desk Analyst, Law Practice, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 30, 2018

Ease of implementation and high level of support.

We have zero issues with the software. The implementation went smoothly and we have not had any outages.

It does take some manual setup. However, the implementation was easy and there were multiple levels of support provided to step us through the setup process. 

**What problems is OpenText Fax (RightFax) solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The ability to host as many fax numbers as we want and the ability to get rid of our POTS lines.

  ### 9. RightFax Cloud based faxing has streamlined our workflows

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jeremy B. | System Engineer , Hospital & Health Care, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 28, 2017

**What do you like best about OpenText Fax (RightFax)?**

Reliable & Secure cloud based faxing solution.

**What do you dislike about OpenText Fax (RightFax)?**

Delegation Management is difficult without purchasing an additional module which in my opinion, should be included in purchasing the RightFax product.

**Recommendations to others considering OpenText Fax (RightFax):**

Consider 3rd party cloud services like Sencore to use in conjunction with RightFax server as I have found it to be more reliable than the OpenText cloud service.  Also consider sticking to v10.5 instead of going to 10.6 unless you need features that are not available in 10.5.  Our 3rd party services support has steered us away from upgrading as they are seeing unreliability on the latest version.  Exucom brings a wealth of knowledge to the implementation and support process and I highly recommend working with them to roll out your faxing solution.

**What problems is OpenText Fax (RightFax) solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Eliminate legacy fax machines and associated costs for paper, ink and repairs.  Streamline workflows by using APIs between RightFax and OnBase document imaging to associate medical documents with a patient's electronic medical record.

**What do you like best about OpenText Fax (RightFax)?**

I like that there are plenty of options to sort and classify faxes. It is easy to receive, view and send faxes.

**What do you dislike about OpenText Fax (RightFax)?**

I wish there was an easier way to route a fax back to the original sender with a note. It would also be nice if there was a pop-up or some sort of indication when a new fax was received. 

**Recommendations to others considering OpenText Fax (RightFax):**

If you'd like to eliminate a lot of paper waste at your company, I would highly recommend it! 

**What problems is OpenText Fax (RightFax) solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It has been a relief to not have to deal with paper faxes printing all the time! Now we can print what we want and control our paper output.

I absolutely love the ability to have a dedicated fax number that I can provide my clients and then have their faxes show up in my email inbox.

If you are looking for a product that will greatly improve one or more user's workflow, allowing electronic files to be faxed in/out and then accessed inside a program that they would have already had opened anyway (Microsoft Outlook) - then look no further.

  ### 18. OpenText RightFax Fax Server Review

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Bobby W. | Centralized Application Support Supervisor, Insurance, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 12, 2016

**What do you like best about OpenText Fax (RightFax)?**

The thing that I like best about OpenText RightFax is the ease of use that it gives our users the ability to send and receive faxes with their own dedicated fax lines.  Everyone is familiar with creating and printing a document and RightFax makes it as easy as that.


**What do you dislike about OpenText Fax (RightFax)?**

the only thing that I dislike about this product is the fax that I can't export all of my users in a nice usable XLS or CSV file.

**Recommendations to others considering OpenText Fax (RightFax):**

I would recommend this product for anyone that is looking to implement an enterprise faxing solution for the company.  while there are many other companies out there, OpenText excels in giving the customers what they need when it comes to faxing capabilities.

**What problems is OpenText Fax (RightFax) solving and how is that benefiting you?**

in the type of environment that we work in, we still deal with a lot of faxes, so this product has made it where the users don't have to get up and go get a physical piece of paper, instead it comes to their inbox in electronic format so they can continue to work in a much more focused way.
