By default, Freshcaller records both incoming and outgoing calls. However, as an admin, you can configure the number properties to configure call recording according to your business needs. 


What are the types of call recording options available?

The following call recording options are available in Freshcaller.

  • Record all calls (default)
  • Record outgoing calls
  • Record incoming calls
  • Record manually
  • Do not record calls

As an admin, you can see the type of call recording option enabled for your Freshcaller number in the properties tab:

For detailed instructions, see Configuring Call Recording Options.


Note: An additional charge of USD 0.003/min is applicable for call recordings.


How to record/pause calls?

By default, all calls are recorded. However, if the number properties are set to " record calls manually ", you have to record the call manually. When you feel that the customer is giving confidential information or wishes to pause recording, you can use the pause option.

  1. If the call recording option for a number is set as "record call manually", click on the record button.
  2. To pause the recording, click on the pause button.
    Note that the pause recording option is available only for Pro and Enterprise customers.


Note:  You can also get the customer's consent to record calls. In this case, the customer will be given a choice to record or opt-out of recording calls at the beginning of the call. This can be done if the record opt-in feature is enabled for the Freshcaller number. For details, see Enabling Recording Opt-in For a Number.

How to view the call recordings?

You can view and listen to the call recordings any time you want.

  1. Go to Admin > Configuration and Workflows > Phone Metrics.
  2. You can see the details of each call here and also view the recordings of each call.
  3. Click on the play icon to listen to the conversation.
  4. You can also download or delete the recording. 
Tips:
