## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace Faxage 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: 11 of the 20 other online fax services grade higher. It costs $41.88 a year.

- You could not: Fax numbers connected to the phone network.
- You could not: Apps for Windows, iOS and Android that stay in step with each other.
- You could not: It is priced for each person, which means accounts and billing for a team.
- You could not: An API that other software can build on.
- You could not: What a company asks for before it lets staff use something: HIPAA.
