The category's chart of price against score: https://toolgpa.com/charts/online-fax ## Keep it, or make your own? **Keep it.** To replace FaxCore 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: 24 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: A real app for Windows. Something home-made would be a web page. A judgement by ToolGPA from this listing, by rules that are the same for every tool.
