EtherFax is a cloud fax network for healthcare and government, with a web client, a document-routing product and a REST API. No price is published and there is no self-serve plan, so you cannot tell what it costs or try it without talking to sales. - **Value for money: C.** No price is published, so it sits in the middle of online fax tools, which start at $6.99 a month for the cheaper quarter. - **Free plan and trial: F.** Nothing free is listed: no free plan and no trial, only a contact-the-company route. - **Features: B.** Engage for sending and tracking, Flow for AI routing, a REST API and printer firmware integrations cover the job. The listing names no gap in it. - **Ease of use: C.** No store rating is on record and it is sold to organizations, so setup means talking to the company and connecting your records system. - **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web only, but with Epic, OnBase, Teams, Slack, Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Canon and Ricoh integrations, plus an API.

The category's chart of price against score: https://toolgpa.com/charts/online-fax ## Keep it, or make your own? **Keep it.** To replace EtherFax you would be making fax numbers connected to the phone network. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 17 of the 24 other online fax services grade higher. - You could not: Fax numbers connected to the phone network. - You could not: Connections to other products, each kept working as those products change. - You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself. - You could not: What a company asks for before it lets staff use something: SOC 2 and HIPAA. - You could not: The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
