How Can You Tell if Your Fax Server is Down?

How can you tell if your RightFax server is down? Usually, it’s not until you try to send a fax that you know there is a serious problem with the server. While there may be a quick fix for the issue, the time it takes to discover it is the real problem.

When a fax server goes down, companies are at risk of losing sales, breaking violations and losing valuable data, which is why it’s essential to be alerted to the problem as soon as it occurs. While RightFax is an immensely useful and comprehensive program, it does not alert users that the server is either offline or experiencing problems.

That’s Why We Created FaxPing

The market sought a solution to this problem, and our fax experts answered the call. FaxPing is an exclusive product of The Fax Guys that automatically sends a test fax to your server to test its functionality.

You don’t have to do a thing. Just sit back and wait to be alerted should your fax server experience a break in functionality. The sooner you are alerted to the problem, the sooner you can go to work fixing it (or reaching out to your fax support team to resolve the problem).

Test Your Server as Often as You Like

With FaxPing, you can set the frequency of test faxes to your server. If you just want to ensure your server stays online throughout the day, you can have a test fax sent every hour. If your fax server is critical to your business or organization, you can have test faxes sent as often as every 15 minutes.

If a test fax fails to reach your server after three attempts, you will automatically receive an email or text alert letting you know there is breach in service. Whether it’s a small problem or a major issue, you will know as soon as it begins to affect your server.
