With so many digital communication tools available, does online fax still play an important role in modern business, or has it become outdated?

According to an article on wtxweb.com, online fax is not only relevant but often required in industries handling sensitive data. While email and chat apps dominate daily communication, they don’t always meet compliance standards. Online fax offers encryption, audit trails, and legal recognition that make it more secure in contexts like healthcare or finance. I’ve seen law firms and clinics still rely on fax for exactly these reasons. The article also pointed out that online fax doesn’t require bulky machines anymore—it integrates smoothly with cloud tools. From my own use, it’s both faster and safer than traditional faxing, showing it has adapted well to modern needs.
