Retarus Again Listed as a Sample Vendor for “Enterprise-Level Cloud Faxing” in Gartner Hype Cycle
Cloud Fax Services are replacing fax server infrastructures
Munich, 30.08.2016 // Gartner’s recent “Hype Cycle for Imaging and Print Services, 2016”* report once again lists global messaging service provider Retarus as a “Sample Vendor” for “Enterprise-Level Cloud Faxing”. In the annual trend review, Gartner’s IT analysts describe the development life cycles of printing technologies, software and services, which assist IT decision-makers in their search for the appropriate solutions that can fulfill their specific requirements. Gartner classifies “Enterprise-Level Cloud Faxing” as being on the “Slope of Enlightenment”**. This means that they expect the demand for Cloud Fax Services to rise substantially over the next two years.
Gartner’s analysts*** consider the scalability of Cloud Fax Services to be particularly beneficial. “Shifting fax communication to the cloud is the logical progression for a technology which has become highly sophisticated in today’s almost exclusively IP-based global communication networks. Meanwhile, our customers have certainly started to take a more strategic view, concentrating on the impacted business processes. Driven by compliance and regulation, global standardization and tough quality requirements, communication is increasingly becoming business-critical,” explains Johannes Hecker, Chief Operating Officer at the Retarus Group.
“We assist you as a partner in your digitization plans by not only providing standard solutions and interfaces, but also services which are flexible and integrate perfectly into your business environments.
