"DO NOT USE"
Version: Messenger for eFax 4.4.0.514
Pros
It...faxes and receives faxes. Most of the time.
Cons
This is a horrible company. The product itself is adequate, but they hide things in the their contracts (like the fact that you can't transfer your fax number), or , charge you an annual fee plus whatever plan, PLUS whatever overages you may occur since they do not offer an unlimited plan. If you compare it to other efax services, it's ridiculously overpriced.
Summary
Do not use.

"Canceled my service."
Version: Messenger for eFax 4.4.0.514
Pros
Good if -- and that is a big IF -- it works.
Cons
Maximum file size is 10MB. If you have a lot of pages or need to send something in high resolution its an issue. I have experienced numerous error messages in sending faxes over the past 2 months. This is not convenient.
Summary
I'd used the product to receive faxes in the past and send a few too. However, when I signed up for service this year I've had a number of issues and the bottom line for me is that I can't trust the service anymore.
1) There seemed to be a number of times where the service was down temporarily. When I received emails from tech support they acknowledged the issue but said:" we would be unable to predict an exact date by which the service could be functional."
2) Faxes I sent around the time I had the technical issues "went through" per eFax, but only 1 of 11 faxes I sent to my insurance company Anthem Blue Cross went through. -- I only found this out after I called them because I had not received reimbursement. They could only locate 1 of the 11 faxes I sent to them. -- This seems improbably and I don't trust that the faxes eFax claims we through actually went through.
3) I thought eFax would be inexpensive and convenient. I not only paid for a few months of service, but now have to pay someone else to send everything that eFax says were sent and this has been anything but convenient.
I canceled my service and am heading out to re-fax everything using a landline service. I won't use or recommend eFax again. -
