- That might be true (that WinFAX outsells BitFax), however, after
- using WinFAX for a few months I recently moved to brand new
- ZSoft's UltraFAX for a week and then ended up with Eclipse
- Systems' 'EclipseFAX'. Definitely *the* choice. The price of the
- package is about the same as the price of WinFAX Pro 3.0 or
- UltraFAX. WinFAX 2.0 lacked decent fax-management, to begin
- with. This deficiency was fixed in 3.0, however, the features
- WinFAX Pro 3.0 or UltraFAX offer are way behind EclipseFAX'es.
- EclipseFAX offers, among many other features, possibility of
- *easily* signing your faxes before sending. You can either
- scan-in your signature or if you don't have a scanner you can
- send a fax to your computer and extract the signature from
- there. Works well!
-
- UltraFAX was extremely confusing if compared to EclipseFAX or
- WinFAX Pro (I returned it).
-
- > In short, buy WinFax...
-
- I'd strongly suggest checking out EclipseFAX first!
