iFax review
A flexible online fax service for teams that need OCR, workflows, and shared inboxes.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
iFax is a cloud fax service for individuals, businesses, and healthcare teams that need to send, receive, and manage faxes online. It supports web, Windows, Mac, iOS, and Android applications, along with virtual fax numbers, number porting, shared team inboxes, personal inboxes, document scanning, and delivery notifications. Its API also gives developers a way to connect faxing with other systems.
Pricing is structured around monthly plans. Basic costs $12.49 per month and includes sending faxes and 200 pages per month. Plus costs $24.99 per month and adds sending and receiving, 500 pages per month, one fax number, HIPAA compliance, and apps for iOS, Android, Windows, and Mac. Enterprise offers volume pricing and commitment-based discounts. A 7-day free trial is available, while there is no free plan. The plan differences make Basic suitable for outbound faxing, while Plus is the clearer fit for teams that need inbound faxing and a dedicated number.
The product’s strongest focus is workflow-oriented fax management. OCR and data extraction can help turn faxed documents into usable information, while annotations, eSignatures, real-time delivery notifications, and audit trails support document-heavy processes. Integrations include Google Drive, Dropbox, iCloud, Box, Gmail, Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, OneDrive, Zapier, and EMR/EHR systems. Fax broadcast, high-volume faxing, international faxing to more than 200 countries, and a programmable API extend its scope beyond basic document transmission. Teams needing receiving, compliance support, mobile apps, or automation should consider iFax; users who only need occasional outbound faxing may find the Plus features unnecessary.
