Forward Advantage’s Communication Director Now Offers Cloud Fax


Fresno, CA (July 1, 2020) – Forward Advantage announced today the introduction of the CloudFax Connector – optional cloud-based fax transmissions for Communication Director’s information exchange platform. Developed as an API integration between Communication Director and Concord Technologies, a leading cloud fax service provider, the CloudFax Connector provides high reliability plus the added benefit of on-demand scalability without the need to purchase additional static capacity – allowing quick adaption to changing business needs. 

Communication Director provides intelligent, automated and on-demand report distribution. This leading, server-based platform is widely known for its ability to work with EMRs, clinical systems and other applications in the healthcare setting. While traditional fax continues to meet most of a hospital’s faxing needs, Forward Advantage uncovered a customer need for higher reliability and on-demand scalability to handle peak faxing volume. The CloudFax Connector adds this reliability and scalability to Communication Director, making it a powerful, highly flexible solution that can be customized to accommodate the right delivery methods for users and their recipients. 

“Healthcare has an unprecedented need for fast, secure access to critical information,” said Chris Roggenstein, president and CEO of Forward Advantage. “Ensuring that the right information is delivered to the right place at the right time is the central focus of our business, and we continuously evaluate new offerings that drive this initiative. Created based on conversations with customers, the CloudFax Connector provides the added flexibility and reliability that our healthcare customers need right now.”

Benefits of Communication Director with the new CloudFax Connector include:

  • True virtual fax delivery with no need for a digital gateway or fax board
  • Ability to meet changing business needs with:
    • On-demand scalability
    • Flexible option of using cloud and/or FoIP
  • Increased recipient satisfaction from more reliable deliveries

“Concord Cloud Fax enables independent software developers to embed technology in their applications so healthcare providers can securely and reliably exchange patient documentation in the cloud and take a strong step towards digitizing document-driven clinical and administrative workflows,” said John Harrison, Chief Commercial Officer at Concord Technologies. “We deeply value this relationship with Forward Advantage and the Communication Director platform. The combined solution will provide healthcare organizations a highly scalable and reliable solution that makes a very real impact on reducing the administrative burden of document handling.”
