Fax.Plus
Best ValueModern, user-friendly fax service with a generous free tier
Fax.Plus stands out with modern design, a strong mobile app, and the lowest month-to-month paid entry price in our current lineup. Basic costs $8.99/month, or $6.99/month when billed annually, for light non-HIPAA faxing. HIPAA and a BAA require Enterprise at $99.99/month, or $79.99/month billed annually, and e-signatures run through Sign.Plus integration.
RingCentral Fax
Editor's ChoiceEnterprise-grade fax built into the RingCentral communications platform
RingCentral Fax offers the best pages-per-dollar ratio in our current lineup, with 3000 pages on its standalone Fax 3000 plan plus HIPAA compliance and API access. It is strongest for business and healthcare teams that can evaluate per-user pricing.
SRFax
Healthcare-first faxing with HIPAA-ready plans and a BAA on request
SRFax is the healthcare specialist of our lineup: the plans shown here are its HIPAA-ready healthcare tiers with a BAA on request, verified on SRFax's own plan builder. It also sells standard small-business plans that its materials list from $9.95/month; we publish the healthcare lineup we could fully verify. Accounts are available in the U.S. and Canada.
Nextiva vFAX
Budget-friendly business fax from a major VoIP provider
Nextiva vFAX is a budget-oriented business fax service from an established VoIP brand. Essential costs $9.95/month month-to-month, or $7.95/month billed annually, for 500 pages — one of the largest entry-tier allowances in our lineup. HIPAA compliance is offered through a separate dedicated plan, and faxing runs through the web portal or email.
eFax
The original online fax service with the widest number coverage
eFax is one of the oldest online fax services, offering wide number availability and solid reliability. Best suited for users who value brand recognition and broad international coverage, though newer competitors offer better value per page.
Dropbox Fax (formerly HelloFax)
Best Doc WorkflowDropbox-backed faxing with strong document and signature workflows
Dropbox Fax is a strong choice for teams already using Dropbox-style document workflows and signature fields before send. It is less attractive for affiliate monetization versus RingCentral, eFax, MyFax, or Fax.Plus programs.
iFax
App-centric faxing with a tiered feature ladder
iFax is an app-centric fax service with a steep feature ladder: the entry Basic plan only sends, while receiving, a fax number, HIPAA compliance, and the well-rated mobile apps arrive on Plus and Pro. Month-to-month rates are $14.99/$29.99/$39.99 per iFax's own pricing cards; annual billing lowers them to $12.49/$24.99/$33.33. The web signup path offers a 3-day free trial of Pro.
MyFax
Straightforward fax service focused on simplicity
MyFax is a straightforward option for users who just need basic faxing without bells and whistles. Its page-per-dollar ratio is not the best, but the simple interface and number porting may appeal to users transitioning from a physical fax machine.
Spotlight: Dropbox Fax
Best Doc WorkflowIf your team prepares, signs, and annotates documents before faxing, Dropbox Fax stands apart. It pulls files from Dropbox, Google Drive, Box, and OneDrive — lets you add signature fields, text, dates, and checkboxes — then sends in one flow. The Home Office plan at $9.99/mo includes 300 pages with $0.05 overage.
It's not the cheapest and it lacks a mobile app, but for document-heavy workflows it's the best tool we tested.
