Same. Healthcare facilities won't let go. But client types form my
observation. Most of our clients have at least one physical fax device,
with some having more than 5 in one office, generally for business
units. And many of those will also have an efax solution available as well.

More than we'd like to. Medical institutions and law firms seem to be
the two biggest ones. We have one hospital that has multiple PRIs
just devoted to faxing -- thankfully that is TDM, so in general it
just works. Otherwise, for those that use SIP there doesn't seem to
ever be a "just do X, and it'll work". There's always some trial and
error with the individual site, the MTA / ATA model, the fax machines
involved, etc.
The worst one I have seen was during the height of COVID. A new
testing lab was opened and they could not be convinced that sending
1500 page faxes was fraught with potential problems. Regardless if
there was an ATA involved or not. In the end, we declined to provide
them service because we knew nothing good would come of it.

What are everyone's thoughts on trying to do fax this way, versus,
an E-Fax solution that supports receiving as well as sending ?
How many legit physical fax machines are you all supporting out there?

I can echo, that the ATA matters. But so does the
configuration of the faxing device (14400 Baud and ECM on),
the switches that the calls go through, the configuation of
the network equipment and the quality of the internet
connection, even the cable type connecting the ATA and the fax
device sometimes.
I have excellent faxing history with Cisco ATA-191's using
G.711 (but not T.38 with the softswitch I use predominantly)
and a client network with well configured QOS enabled firewalls.
It's not logical to me, but I've even seen instances where
using a 2 conductor cable from fax to ata improved
communication over a 4 conductor cable.
Nathan and Ross covered other great points as well.

Hi VOIPOPS Community
Do you know about any fax over internet solution that works?
We tried multiple ATA and multiple ATA configurations,
sometime it works sometimes not.
Also, do you know about any eFax solution provider that works
good.
Thanks in advance for your help.
