The concept
Of course, FaxWare 4 benefits from the experience which we have
gained with its previous versions. We have talked to countless
people who have been using FaxWare for many years. We have realized
good ideas and removed redundant details. The European computer
press has not deemed FaxWare 4 »the best FaxWare ever«
for nothing.
The following principles were important to us in the development
of FaxWare 4:
- Efficiency
The limits of FaxWare 4 are far beyond
today's requirements. It supports up to 1,000 users, 64 exchange
lines per server and 32 servers per LAN.
- Administration
Every system supervisor knows that
the maintenance time rises with every new application. FaxWare
4 is supposed to relieve the system supervisor. A new user is
created only once and an old user is deleted only once. For example, this is carried out
directly in
the NetWare databases. No matter if you work with the NetWare
3 Bindery or if you use NetWare 4 and handle the central administration
of all resources through the NetWare Directory Services (NDS).
- User-friendliness
This is an important feature which
is characteristic for every good fax solution. It must be possible
for a normal user to fax "on the side". After all, his
main task is generally not to create faxes. FaxWare is very simple
to operate and it is laid out clearly.
- Flexibility
Tobit FaxWare 4 can be easily integrated
in any network environment. It is absolutely transparent and very easy
to maintain for the supervisor. FaxWare 4 currently works
as a real operating system extension on a NetWare server (NetWare
3 and NetWare 4).
- Independence
No matter if you work under DOS or Windows
or if you wish to fax with modems or ISDN boards, Tobit FaxWare
4 adapts to your needs.

- Stability
A file server
is ready for use 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. This is absolutely
necessary for fax receipt or delayed dispatch. The unique client/server
architecture of Tobit FaxWare 4 avoids that the network becomes
overloaded unnecessarily.
- Easy extension
FaxWare can conveniently be adapted
to the system environment. You purchase a starter pack with which
5 network users can send and receive faxes via one exchange line.
If more users are to use FaxWare or if you require further exchange
lines, you can purchase additional licenses. The user licenses
are scaled. You only have to buy as many as you really need -
independently of your network license count.
- Scalability
What do you know today about the requirements
of tomorrow? How many users on your network will require to fax?
How many lines will you need? The FaxWare 4 user does not have
to worry about these questions TODAY. However, there are not only
possibilities for faxing. Already today, applications are available
which also allow for other communication services, such as »voice
mailboxes«, »electronic mail« or »Internet access«,
without any change to the hardware.
