Call recording gives a business the ability to record voice conversations that happen through the company's phone system. Typically used for compliance or employee training purposes, active calls, including internal calls and conference calls, can be recorded and listened back to at a later stage. Today, most if not all of the best business VoIP services will include call recording, so you're somewhat spoilt for choice.
The ability to listen back to calls provides a variety of business benefits:
Employee training
Call recording gives a business the ability to listen back to calls made and received by employees for training purposes. This allows the business to highlight examples of great performance, along with showing where that individual might need additional support or direction.
Quality service
If you knew that someone was listening to your every word, you're more likely to conduct yourself professionally. In the same way, call recordings encourage employees to remain professional, even if a customer is being hostile.
Dispute resolution
VoIP call recording provider you with an accurate record of conversations between your employees and customers, which can then be used to help settle disputes and disagreements.
Industry compliance
Many businesses, especially those in financial services, need to record calls for regulatory compliance such as for MiFID II.
T2k's business VoIP call recording service has been developed specifically for our hosted VoIP platform Gamma Horizon and is available as a bolt-on service on a per-user/per month basis. Managed through a web portal, our platform allows users to record inbound and outbound calls for a variety of purposes.

What information is captured when you record a call?
In addition to the actual content of the call, there is a variety of additional metadata which will be collected including:
- Call direction - inbound or outbound
- Connect time - the date and time the call was made/received
- Telephony username - the username or the user/device
- User number - the user's telephone number
- Other party's number - the phone number of the person who was in the call
- Status - showing either 'Available' or 'Processing' depending on whether the call is available to listen to

Call audit trail
In the 'History Tab' within the platform, an audit of user activity performed with the recording is kept. It's here you'll find details of who's accessed the recording and when including key information such as their IP address.

Searching for recordings
To allow for the ease of finding calls, T2k's VoIP call recorder allows you to search for calls with any combination of a number of metadata fields:
- Date
- Time of day
- Duration
- User's phone number
- Other party's phone number
