Send and receive faxes from anywhereUpdated January 27, 2008. RingCentral might be the new King of Internet Fax. With a 30 day trial and lots of neat signup fatures it gives MyFax and RapidFAX a run for their money. But are they really that good? Read the review. Have you used this service? Leave your comments.

Who is RingCentral

11/08 RingCentral still offers just about the fullest set of features available for Internet Fax and now they have Fax Spam Blocking. It's not perfect blocking but it does seem to help quite a bit. 

news! Ring Central has a limited time offer with FREE rolover minutes. No one has ever offered this type of deal before.  They also let you try RingCentral Fax FREE

RingCentral is a privately held company that has been in the fax business since before eFax and almost as long as AT&T! Needless to say they know what they are doing. It is interesting to note that they are the only service with a Better Business Bureau badge on their site. This does NOT mean they are better than the other services just that they have agreed with the BBB to answer all complaints within 7 days or less. RingCenteral also has some pretty cool features.

Log in to RingCentral


RingCentral uses standard login procedures and lets you send and receive faxes either using your email ID or through their very well thought out online interface. I'm not sure how good their faxing directly from Microsoft Office applications is but I promise to update the blog in the coming weeks with a report on this. This is not usually a critical feature in any case.

Number Coverage

NICE FEATURE: Ring Center al has one of the best number choosing systems I've seen. You can either choose a toll free number or local number but they SHOW you the numbers you can choose from OR you can choose a Vanity number! This is really cool.

RingCentral has very good local number coverage with most of the US covered. Note however in these days of constantly splitting area codes local numbers are not longer that important.

RingCentral offers FREE Toll Free numbers which can be a big advantage by eliminating the fear of call cost to folks sending you faxes. (please note: if you receive international faxes you MUST get a local number as Toll Free numbers do not work internationally EXCEPT for Canada.

Customer Service

These guys got it covered with Toll Free phone support and email support. No chat support that I noticed but they had excellent tutorials and knowledgebase.


Setup & Administration

The setup is very easy to do and you can be up and running in minutes.

They also have a great online tutorial of RingCentral which really gives some insights into how easy this service is to use. RingCentral Tutorial Click Here
