I have personal experience with Fax-to-EDI and webforms. In my opinion, you
have the three in reverse order of reliability. Properly implemented webforms
would guarantee that the data is complete, consistent and in the format you
desire. With Excel, you can create a form to be filled out and if you take
advantage of all the available bells and whistles, you can end up with a fairly
sophisticated form, which might even be able to post itself.
Fax to EDI sounds like a good idea but OCR never works quite as well as
advertised, and no matter how many times you warn them, people cannot resist
writing on the fax just like they always did before. If your senders are very
well disciplined, it can work very well.
