Diabetes is a huge problem facing Americans these days and according to recent statistics, nearly 25.8 million children and adults have it. To lessen the number of citizens affected by this disease once and for all, the American Tour de Cure Maryland recently took place, generating over 20,000 that will surely benefit the American Diabetes Association.

Participating in the event were several big name companies including Notable Solutions, Xerox and OpenText, a provider of enterprise Fax over IP.

"NSi is very proud to have so many people come out and ride with us and thankful for the many generous donations we received from across the country from co-workers, partners, customers and our family and friends," Ali Tehranchi, COO of Notable Solutions, said in a statement. "It was a lot of fun and a great way to support a worthy cause. We can't wait for next year so we can surpass our fundraising efforts and grow the team even bigger."

Held in 44 states around the country, this event is touted as a ride – not a race – that involves everyone from novice riders to the most professional cyclists.

Heavily involved in the healthcare industry, OpenText recently spoke to TMCnet about how its fax solution can enable the medical world to adhere to rigorous compliance standards which if aren’t followed precisely could result in astronomical fines.

According to company officials, if you “send a fax to the wrong person or leave a fax in whole or part at an unattended fax machine, you could be subject to costly fines.”

Besides protecting your pockets, enterprise Fax over IP allows organizations to see multiple advantages including increased efficiency, more streamlined operations overall and eliminating the use of a large amount of resources, including paper.
