In today’s business life, it is so important to respond to customers in the fastest way possible. However, this may not be possible in all situations.

Currently, Cox Business does not offer fax features in voice mailboxes; however, our development roadmap includes creation of special services that support faxing. Cox Business is launching a new platform for voice mail in 2014 and existing customers must set up their voice mailboxes during migration.
