Call Recording

Keep recording of your important business conversations for compliance, staff training, and more.

What is call recording?

Call recording, also known as phone recording or voice logging, is an effective call feature for businesses to record conversations through an audio source.

The ability to record calls and play them back later is useful for many types of organizations. If you are training a new sales team, recorded sales calls can become an effective teaching tool. Also, it helps you review and confirm information to counteract disputes and fraud, comply with regulations, and enhance your business performance.

How does it work?

Automatic and On-demand Call Recording

Yeastar Phone System supports both automatic call recording and on-demand one-touch call recording.

The system allows users to record the conversation automatically when setting specific recording rules. They can enable global recording to capture all calls, or selectively record calls from specific trunks or extensions. Users can set up which types of calls (inbound/outbound, or calls of specific trunk, extension, etc.) they want to record.

During call recording, the user can pause and resume recording to avoid the sensitive information being recorded.

After the call ends, the system converts the conversation into audio files (.wav) with an encrypted digital signature. Every phone conversation and recording file can be stored in the PBX server, external storage (e.g. USB, TF, SD, HDD), or the network drive.

Call Recording Use Cases

Meet compliance and legal requirements

The recording feature makes it easy to maintain accurate records of customer interactions, which are vital for resolving disputes and regulatory compliance issues in your business.

Dispute resolution

Call recording provides a reliable source of evidence in case of disputes. Having a recorded conversation can help clarify misunderstandings, resolve conflicts, and protect your business’s interests.

Improve agent performance and customer experience

The recordings can serve as valuable training materials for agents, demonstrating best practices and showcasing successful interactions. Call center supervisors can review recorded calls or monitor agent status, thus facilitating timely support and service quality assessment. Additionally, call recordings can provide valuable customer insights and feedback which can inform decision making and ultimately lead to improved customer experience.

Common FAQs

What are the differences between automatic call recording and one-touch recording?

.

How it works: Automatic call recording can be started without any intervention from the user, which helps to avoid forgetting to start. It’s set for a specific type of call you want to record. So users need to pre-configure the recording for queue, conference, or other routings. As for the one-touch recording, here is a recording function key that users can press directly on Linkus client, or you can simply dial the feature code “*1” to start recording.

Use Cases: Automatic call recording is ideal for businesses seeking to record all calls for multiple purposes, including legal or business requirements, maintaining records of vital conversations, or personal reference. On the other hand, one-touch recording proves valuable when users want to selectively record specific calls. This feature enables fast recording at any time, even during ongoing calls. Moreover, Yeastar’s one-touch recording is PCI protocol compliant, enabling users to conveniently pause recording when handling sensitive information.
