Call Recording Explained

Call recording captures your inbound and outbound business calls so you can review exactly what was said instead of relying on memory or handwritten notes. With Phone Service Now, recording runs continuously in the background and recordings are accessible through the Phone Service Now web and mobile app from any device. Use them to train new hires, confirm order details, resolve disputes, and keep an accurate record of client conversations. Call recording is included with the Business Plus plan at $23.99 per user per month, with unlimited recording on Business Platinum at $27.99 per user per month.

What's Included

Phone Service Now’s call recording feature captures your business conversations automatically, 24 hours a day, and stores them where your team can find them. Instead of scribbling notes mid-call and hoping you caught the important details, you get the actual conversation, ready to replay whenever you need it.

Most disputes, missed details, and training gaps come down to the same problem: nobody can agree on what was actually said. Recording removes the guesswork and replaces it with a verifiable record.

How Call Recording Works

Once recording is enabled on your account, Phone Service Now captures inbound and outbound calls on the lines you designate. Recording runs continuously, so you do not have to remember to press a button when a call turns important. Each recording is saved to your account and is accessible through the Phone Service Now web and mobile app, where you can search, replay, and download the audio.

Retention and Storage

The Business Plus plan includes 30 days of call recording, which covers most coaching, quality assurance, and short-term dispute needs. The Business Platinum plan includes unlimited call recording, so conversations stay available for as long as you keep the account. If your business needs a long-term record for compliance or contract purposes, Business Platinum is the plan to choose.

Integration with Your Phone System

Call recording is not a standalone tool. It works alongside the rest of your Phone Service Now phone system features. Calls that arrive through auto attendant menus or call queues are recorded the same way direct calls are. Calls routed through call forwarding are still captured. If you also use visual voicemail, your recorded calls and voicemail transcripts live in the same ecosystem, so a single conversation history covers both answered calls and missed ones.

Security and Compliance

Phone Service Now is fully HIPAA-compliant. Recordings containing protected health information are handled with the same encryption and privacy standards that apply to the rest of the platform, which makes call recording viable for medical offices and healthcare providers. Recording consent requirements vary by state, and some states require every party on the call to consent before recording begins. Confirm the rules that apply where your business and your callers are located, and consult your own legal counsel before you enable recording.

What You Need to Get Started:

Who It's For

Call recording is built for any business where the details of a conversation carry weight. Here are the teams that benefit most:

Solo Operators and Home-Based Businesses

You are the business, and you are often on the phone while doing something else. Recording means you can confirm quantities, addresses, and deadlines after the call instead of during it.

Small Teams (1 to 25 Users)

Business Plus is built for teams of this size. Recordings give you a practical way to coach staff on real calls rather than role-play scenarios.

Healthcare Practices

HIPAA-compliant recording means calls involving patient information are handled securely. Staff can verify medication names, appointment details, and instructions without a callback.

Legal Offices

Client instructions change, and an accurate record of what was requested protects both sides. Recordings on Business Platinum stay available with no retention limit.

Real Estate Agencies

Offers, counteroffers, and closing conditions often move over the phone. Recording gives agents a reliable reference for terms discussed with buyers, sellers, and lenders.

Sales Teams and Inbound Call Centers

Review real calls to sharpen scripts and shorten ramp time for new reps. Call center seats are available as a $15 per month add-on on the Business Plus plan.

Service Businesses with High Call Volumes

When dozens of job details are quoted by phone each day, recordings settle billing disputes and confirm exactly what was promised on site.
