- Fax to email is simply a term used for a service that can accept a standard fax (a piece of paper with writing on), convert it into a picture or an electronic document and then send that document to an email address.

- Follow Me Service
- A follow me service will redirect your phone calls to another telephone number, perhaps a mobile, perhaps a different office. The theory being that when you move location the calls will still come through to a phone near you. This can be totally replaced by VoIP if you have a softphone running on your computer since where ever your computer (normally a laptop for this purpose) is and as long as it is connected to the Internet you can receive a phone call on the same number that you normally use.

- Freephone
- Is anything free? Its all relative. The term freephone is normally associated with telephone numbers. A freephone number is one that starts with 0800 or 0808. These telephone numbers are free to call meaning you will not get charged for that call on your next phone bill, how ever, they are not free as the company that owns the telephone number actually pays for your call. Freephone numbers are often used as sales numbers to encourage potential customers to phone you.
