Fluid Voice SS enables any company to use carrier class contact and call center service at any size business.

Business SMS

The Fluid Voice SS ecosystem enables you to use Business SMS and Business MMS with the same back-end infrastructure that underlies our advanced business voice platform.  

Most business owners understand that  SMS is a valuable part of the lead acquisition and/or customer engagement process, and many  already use it.  But today, most SMS communication is done with a business manager’s personal mobile device, and is not integrated with the businesses phone system.  

Business SMS brings the ability to integrate SMS communications with a businesses PBX and other internal systems.  In the future, not having the ability to communicate with customers using Business SMS will be the equivalent of not having company email or a company website.

The Fluid Voice SS white label ecosystem enables you to sell Business SMS and Business MMS with the same back-end infrastructure that underlies our advanced business voice platform.

Adding Business SMS and Business MMS to your Services allows you to enhance your hosted PBX or CaaS by making it possible to send and receive text messages and multimedia files using your business DIDs.  Business SMS and Business MMS services can be activated on virtually any U.S. or Canadian DID or any Toll Free number.  That means that you can have the opportunity to maintain your professional identity by using your existing phone numbers.  The SMS activation has no effect on the voice service of a DID, so it is completely transparent to end users. 

Virtual Fax

The Fluid Voice SS Virtual Fax solution allows resellers to replace analog fax machines with confidence.

Like all Fluid Voice solutions, our Virtual Fax offering has been designed to optimize reseller success. And, we offer multiple options for sending and receiving that makes it easy to use, and easy to sell. 

When it comes to replacing an on-premise phone systems with UCaaS, deciding what to do with the fax line is often a sticking point. The fact is that fax technology is not well suited to packet communications, due to its high sensitivity to latency and jitter over the last mile.

Fax to Fax over the Internet

The Fluid Voice SS Fax to Fax (Internet Fax from end-user’s fax machine) service provides reliable faxing over the Internet.

t.38 and Internet Faxing
t.38 the ITU recommended standard for sending and receiving faxes over the Internet, was designed to send raw data over networks for fax transmissions. In theory, this should work fine. The reality, as anyone that has tested t.38 over the public Internet can attest, is at best, unreliable. Jitter, packet loss and PCM Clock sync issues often cause these faxes to fail and the longer the fax, the more likelihood of failure. For businesses that rely on fax as an important way to communicate with their customers and business partners, it is clearly a costly, frustrating and unacceptable solution.

Fluid Voice SS takes the t.38 out of Internet Faxing
With the Fluid Voice SS Fax ATA solution, end-users never need to worry about packet loss, jitter or PCM Clock sync issues creating fax failures. Our solution does not utilize t.38 at the end-user’s location. Rather, our ATA (Analog Telephone Adapter) has proprietary software that receives fax transmissions from the end user’s fax machine locally, and then transmits it to our servers using HTTPS. This process is not affected by jitter or packet loss and works perfectly well over any type of Internet connection.

Incoming faxes, destined for the end user’s fax machine, work in the opposite direction. Incoming faxes are first received in at our servers, and then then transmitted to the end user’s ATA securely, before being delivered to the end user’s fax machine. Incoming faxes can also be delivered to the end user’s email. If the end user’s fax machine or ATA is off-line or unable to receive, faxes can queue until the ATA and fax machine becomes available available. Senders never get a busy signal and end users never miss a fax!

Benefits of the Fluid Voice SS Fax ATA

  • Transparency: Clients may continue to fax as they always have
  • Plug and Play
  • Low-cost Fax ATA
  • Small packaging for low-cost shipping
  • Secure. All data transfer is TLS encrypted
