[asterisk-users] Need fax solution for 1.4.xx
Anybody know a reliable fax solution for 1.4.30 branch? I am using PikaFax on another server and works very well (about 3000 faxes a week), but it appears they no longer offer their product to open source asterisk, only for there "WARP" appliance.

Free Fax for Asterisk works pretty well, but not knowing your trunk (DAHDI, E1, ??) and considering this volume, I would consider something like the MyFax service. _____ From: asterisk-users-bounces at lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces at lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of William Stillwell (Lists) Sent: Tuesday, May 11, 2010 2:30 PM To: 'Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion' Subject: [asterisk-users] Need fax solution for 1.4.xx Anybody know a reliable fax solution for 1.4.30 branch?

It's worth reading the release notes and doing the upgrade.

You are right that PIKA no longer just sells Fax licenses to be used with 3rd party boards. However the PIKA Warp appliance is great for Faxing with Asterisk. http://www.pikatechnologies.com/english/View.asp?x=1009 Rod =========================On Tue, May 11, 2010 at 3:30 PM, William Stillwell (Lists) <william.stillwell-lists at xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:> Anybody know a reliable fax solution for 1.4.30 branch? > > > I am using PikaFax on another server and works very well (about 3000faxes> a week), but it appears they no longer offer their product to opensource> asterisk, only for there "WARP" appliance. > > NOT really looking to migrate from 1.4.x to 1.6.x
