SMS gateway
The GFI FAXmaker SMS gateway allows for centralized sending and receiving of SMS messages. SMS messages can either be sent via an Internet-based SMS service or alternatively via a mobile phone or PCMCIA mobile card. The SMS gateway can also be used for administrative alerts, for example, to notify an administrator of critical system outages or application problems. Any email-enabled application can send SMS messages via the GFI FAXmaker SMS gateway. A central log of SMS messages permits the control of SMS use.

Send SMS messages from your desktop
GFI FAXmaker's SMS gateway enables network users to send SMS messages from their desktop; this allows them to easily contact business colleagues and associates who are on the road or away from their desk. Using the SMS gateway rather than a mobile phone is faster (no need to use the phone pad) and saves users the cost of the SMS message.
