    Well IBM thinks so, as ExtraFax has passed through all the assessment levels and was recently recognized with the Ready for IBM Energy and Environment certification.  

    Extracomm knows the importance of a greener paperless office, but we also can appreciate the need for a robust product offering that continues to evolve. Check out some of the new ExtraFax 8 features that we will be launching at Lotusphere 2010 – Booth 531

    Cover Page Wizard - Using a Wizard style interface, create cover pages seamlessly.    

    Built-in Probes - Pro-active monitoring in ExtraFax with real time e-mail notifications that will alert Administrators to potential problems on the ExtraFax server.

    Port Management Console - An Incorporated management console where device channel real time output can be accessed without the need to have access to the server operating system.

    Integration with SAP - It will now be possible to send/receive faxes in a way that is natively supported by SAP.

    SMPP Support - Send and Receive SMS messages using an SMPP connection with your Telco Carrier.

    Using Skype to send SMS messages - With no requirement for hardware SMS devices, Skype provides a pure software solution for outbound text messaging.

    iNotes integration - Ability to incorporate the Fax Options and Fax Address button in the iNotes web mail interface.

    Cover page preview - Add the ability for end users and administrators to preview what the available ExtraFax cover pages look like before they are used.

    3 of 9 barcode generator - No need to purchase 3rd party barcode program to generate and use 3 of 9 bar codes within ExtraFax.

    Improved Reporting - Useful for capacity planning and easier to distinguish ExtraFax usage when it comes to Fax VS. SMS VS. MMS.
