LOS ANGELES, October 15, 2010 - eFax(R) today announced its eFax Connector for SAP(R) Solutions, the

enterprise-focused solutions for corporate and SME environments and gives SAP

The eFax Connector for SAP Solutions was developed to address a primary
need within corporate environments: to allow customers to send recurring
documents via fax without the need for an internal fax server. Choosing an
SAP-certified outsourced solution such as eFax eliminates the need for
additional hardware, software, or upgrade costs normally associated with fax
server technology.
Along with the convenience of an integrated SAP faxing solution,
additional benefits of the eFax Connector API include:
-- Easier installation and administration over the previous RFC interface -- The use of eFax through a standard SMTP gateway -- Direct faxing from SAPconnect -- Improved data tracking -- Compatibility with IETF standards
"Bringing an outsourced, high-volume faxing application solution to ERP
environments is something our customers have asked us for, and now with the
eFax Connector for SAP Solutions we're delivering on that request," said Mike
Pugh, vice president, marketing for j2 Global Communications, Inc. "The SAP
integration fits right in line with a key objective of our recently announced
eFax Next initiative - to work with leading technology providers such as SAP,
HP, and others to bring a shift in the way companies think about and use
fax."
