[thelist] jfax vs. efax

[Colin Strasser]

I recently evaluated the free offerings from these two and chose
to go with JFax for a couple reasons:

1.  It was recommended by a client.

2.  I receive my faxes in TIFF format, whereas efax uses a
proprietary .EFX format.

Potential efax advantages:

A.  JFax seems to have decided to diversify into a unified
messaging service rather than focus on doing one thing well.

B.  Efax has nice desktop integration tools, at least based on my
brief acquaintance with them at Kinkos.

Still, JFax assigned me a fax number within just five minutes of
signing up, and so far it has worked flawlessly.

Anyone use any online faxing sites? Right now I'm looking at jfax
vs. efax
and not finding too many differences. The prices are similar, some
of the
features are slightly different and the user interface at efax
sucks but...
