Call Recording

Telmetrics provides the ability to record calls with high quality and clarity. This allows you to listen to completed calls to evaluate whether it could be qualified as a lead, determine which sources deliver the best quality callers, or to evaluate service levels and train your sales team.

When this feature is enabled, advertisers receiving calls from your Tracking Number will hear the notification message you supply.

This feature is enabled via the Number Resource, and can be configured during the provisioning of a Tracking Number, or applied later as an update.

Please note that this feature is enabled at the "call_route" level. For additional information on enabling the call record feature for Tracking Numbers with complex routing options, please refer to the Call Routing portion of this documentation.
