<<Companies I've worked for in the past gave us internet faxing - NO one used the damn thing. And they couldn't get people to use it. So, in IDT's case, they need to get their corporate customers to use their products - not just sign them up.>> I worked, for all things, a regional distributor of sheet rock and ceiling tile and dimensional lumber---you can't get much lower tech than that. Our own phones were monitored for useage; internet faxing was emphasized because of its utility and speed and all the customer servicereps used it constantly as well as the sales force. It was actually quite easy to use and sped up the process for credit analysis of prospects and for quoting. One steallar example is faxing a credit ap to a customer from a remote branch, they fax it to our credit dept. at HQ and HQ would fax it to the reference data base---an answer for credit worthiness would literally take less than an hour--what a tool it was.
