Phone Call Recording

The call recording feature allows you to choose to record your calls for later review. This feature is optional, a service plan with call recording must be selected in order to active this feature for a specific User Account or Call Group.

Note: Call Groups recording is only for the inbound call. A user in a call group would be making the call from their User Account and so if you want to record their outbound calls they would need to have call recording enabled on their User Account as well.
