What to Expect from a Call Recording Solution

Posted by Craig McCue on Aug 6, 2018 11:10:00 AM

Selecting a call recording solution for your business's needs typically involves reviewing several recording products that do a lot of the same things. All of these products will all allow you to:What to Expect in a call recording solution

  • Record 100% of calls or just a subset of calls
  • Record on-demand
  • Search for calls based on certain criteria
  • Achieve compliance recording with regulations (PCI, HIPAA, GDPR, MiFID II, etc.)

The list of common features among recording platforms goes on. These are merely a few basic functions you should absolutely require with your recording solution. While these common features will meet a firm's basic recording needs, we rarely/never see a firm whose recording needs are just basic.

Your needs are unique, and therefore, you should expect more from your recording solution. As part of your search for a recording platform, be sure to get beyond all the common basic features and get to the points that are important to you. Our experience tells us that, among other things, you should also expect the following from your recording platform:

  • More security of your voice data, including OWASP Level 2 security
  • More flexibility and more access to your voice data
    • The ability to leverage voice data with other enterprise data and not have the data locked away in a proprietary recording file format
    • The ability to customize your voice data/speech analytics and leverage the best speech analytics platform for your needs
  • REST API (with access to the ENTIRE platform)
  • More versatility around your deployment strategy - choose your  preferred hardware, operating system (Linux or Windows) and database, as well as the ability to export recordings in open file formats
  • Quick deployment methodology that will have you up and recording in a few minutes, not weeks (or months in some cases)

Making sure these points are covered as part of your search for a recording platform will give you peace of mind that your recording solution offers the security and flexibility that will allow you to meet both your current and future recording requirements.
