However, for many it is a vital part of critical business processes that cannot be neglected. Retarus is committed to investing in faxing infrastructure and ultimately make life \u2013 and faxing \u2013 simpler and easier for the companies that continue to rely on it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides continual investment into the backend (including data centers, rendering, and performance), Retarus is equally focused on enhancing the user experience. To that end, Retarus has developed a brand-new Cloud Fax Add-In, which is built directly into the user\u2019s Microsoft Outlook interface, further streamlining and modernizing the process of sending faxes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-native-add-in-makes-faxing-simple\">Native add-in makes faxing simple<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Retarus\u2019 Cloud Fax Add-In for Outlook adds a \u201cSend Fax\u201d button to email windows which opens an intuitive side panel that facilitates the sending of a fax via email. The side panel includes the necessary text fields to allow users to easily enter recipients, as well as check boxes for toggling specific features and settings, even enabling the user to fax attachments only, without the email body or subject line. Furthermore, users can assign individual faxes to specific cost centers. Advanced admin features are easily accessible via the Outlook Add-In as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, users can also easily reply to faxes received in Outlook by using the Add-In. After selecting the fax in their inbox and then clicking the button, a side panel displays to the user all the fax details including the sender number, at what number it was received, when it was sent, the number of pages, and many other transmission and archiving details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-streamlined-processes-and-full-control-for-admins\">Streamlined processes and full control for admins<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The new Add-In makes sending faxes from Microsoft Outlook easier and more intuitive than ever before. Users no longer having to remember the fax domain, being able copy and paste multiple fax numbers at once, and having the option to access special commands and transmission options with only a few clicks can streamline processes significantly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All this makes the Cloud Fax Add-In for Outlook particularly valuable to organizations that have a large number of Email-to-Fax users, or users that are faxing infrequently. With the natively integrated, straightforward interface, faxing becomes much more intuitive and easier to remember. This decreases errors, reduces the need for training, and relieves internal IT and support teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Admins can uniformly control what commands and features users have access to. This makes enabling functionality across the user base even more uniformly clear. Replying to a fax got easier too. Now it is no different than replying to an email. And users can do it from directly within the Outlook interface, further reducing time and effort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-available-from-microsoft-s-appsource\">Available from Microsoft\u2019s AppSource<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Retarus Cloud Fax Add In for Outlook is <a href=\"https:\/\/appsource.microsoft.com\/en-us\/product\/Office365\/WA200007988\">officially listed on Microsoft\u2019s AppSource<\/a>, an online marketplace where organizations can browse, try, buy and deploy thousands of business applications and services. Pre-vetted by Microsoft and their security review process, organizations can rest easy in the integrity and security of the Add-In. Although found via the Microsoft AppSource directory, you will need a configured Fax Cloud Gateway service from Retarus before using. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.retarus.com\/us\/contact\/\">Please reach out to us<\/a> for additional information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Interested in simple faxing from Outlook?
