Published plan facts verified August 19, 2026. “Verify” means the provider does not expose a sufficiently clear public answer for FaxScout to state it as fact.

How FaxScout would make the decision

Start with non-negotiables: BAA eligibility, monthly volume, existing-number continuity, team size and API/integration requirements. Then compare total expected cost. Cosmetic features are tiebreakers, not reasons to ignore a major constraint.
