Accepted Answer

Send FAX Mail, in almost every case. GotFreeFax handles occasional outbound-only sends (up to 3 pages per fax) with no way to receive and no dedicated number — fine for a one-off, but not a business line. Send FAX Mail at $12.99/mo adds two-way faxing, a dedicated number, mobile apps, 600 included pages with no per-page charges, and HIPAA from $27.99/mo — and you can run it through a 7-day free trial first.
