U.S. healthcare provider entrusts critical patient information to OpenText RightFax and OpenText RightFax Connect for efficient, reliable faxing

OpenText RightFax has been a huge win for us. We have gone from faxing being a real pain point in our system to actually becoming a strength. Our user community knows this and has started faxing more because of it. The confidence level, which was not there even just six months ago, has completely flipped now. They know that whatever they send is going to get there.
