Call recordings give valuable insight into customer interactions, helping teams spot trends, understand customer preferences, and find areas to improve communication or service delivery. They're also a reliable reference for checking details discussed on a call, reducing the risk of miscommunication. On top of that, recordings are a great tool for training and quality assurance, letting supervisors assess employee performance and give focused feedback.
📌Note: To access call recordings, first ensure that the Call Recording feature is enabled for all applicable numbers. Follow the steps outlined in the How To Enable Call Recording article if you have not already enabled the feature!
Finding Call Recordings Under Contacts
Head to the Contacts > Smart Lists section of your account to begin, then select the desired contact from the list.
