Galdon released GFX 3.0 which is their latest fax archiving and billing solutionf for RightFax—Fax server product.

The predecessor of GFX 3.0 is version 2.7 for Windows SharePoint Services 2.0. The older version shall be supported for customers who have not yet upgraded to the latest version of SharePoint.

GFX is a great product that allows management of fax documents for both inbound and outbound. These documents are then archived and posted in SharePoint.

CEO of Galdon Data, Garry Ackerman, has this to say: We strongly recommend SharePoint 2007 as the platform for building compliance-oriented solutions and GFX serves as an excellent storage and retrieval solutions for RightFax customers. SharePoint provides the ideal platform for enterprise content management (ECM) solutions. The ease of deployment, excellent features and favourable pricing make it an ideal component of any company’s ECM strategy. Windows SharePoint Services is free for all Windows 2003 Server licensees, allowing you to start taking advantage of this great technology at a low cost starting point. Using the browser-based system, organisations can easily deploy and maintain GFX, further allowing them to seamlessly integrate this Microsoft-based solution to other applications within the organisation.

I like applications which leverage SharePoint as the platform for enterprise utilities. I just hope they convince clients to upgrade to Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 so they wouldn’t need to support older versions of GFX.

I don’t have any experience using a Fax Server but my cumbersome experience of manual fax documents is not funny and RightFax is an application I would welcome.
