Best Call Recording Software

Invoca analyses inbound phone conversations and connects them to the digital activity that produced them, turning digital, conversation and transaction data into buyer context that can be acted on in real time. It routes and qualifies callers, scores and coaches agents, measures paid media across search, social, display and connected television, and integrates with CRM, contact centre and marketing systems. Its customers have made it the G2 enterprise call tracking leader for more than seven years.

Attribution is the problem it exists to solve and it is a genuinely awkward one. Online activity is measured in detail while a phone call has historically been a gap in the record, so a business whose customers convert by calling cannot see which advertising worked. Closing that gap changes where the budget goes.

Conversation analysis is what makes the attribution useful rather than merely complete. Knowing a call happened is attribution; knowing what was discussed, whether the caller was qualified and whether they bought is what tells a marketing team which campaign produced revenue rather than volume.

Real-time routing is the operational half. Using digital behaviour to route a caller and brief the agent before they answer is a specific advantage in businesses where the call is the transaction.

ZoomInfo Chorus is a conversation intelligence product that captures and analyses sales calls, meetings and emails, identifies the behaviours that correlate with won deals, and syncs contacts and communications automatically into the CRM. The vendor states it is backed by fourteen technology patents covering its machine learning.

Automatic CRM capture is the feature that pays for the product, and it addresses a problem every sales organisation has. Representatives do not log their calls consistently, so pipeline reports describe what somebody remembered to type rather than what happened. Recording the conversation and writing the contacts and outcomes back removes the reporting gap without asking anyone to change habits.

Coaching is the second use and the one that justifies it to a sales leader. Comparing how successful representatives handle objections against how new ones do turns onboarding from shadowing into something measurable, and shortens the time before a new hire produces.

Recording customer conversations carries obligations that vary by jurisdiction, and consent requirements differ between one-party and all-party states and across borders. That is a matter for the buyer's legal team before deployment rather than a configuration detail afterwards.

CallCabinet provides call recording and conversation analytics across any deployment, platform and location, with compliance as its organising principle. It tracks regulatory regimes including Dodd-Frank, MiFID II, GDPR, POPIA and PCI DSS and updates as those develop, allows custom policies to be set at a granular level, and automatically redacts payment card, health and personally identifiable information from both the audio and the transcription of every call.

Redacting the audio itself is the capability that distinguishes it. Masking a card number in a transcript leaves it spoken in the recording, which means the recording remains a liability, and removing it from both is what allows a contact centre to keep calls at all under card industry rules.

Tracking regulations as they change is the other half of the same argument. A compliance obligation that shifts leaves recordings made under the previous interpretation, and a vendor that maintains the ruleset removes work a compliance team would otherwise repeat.

Selling through resellers, channel partners and carriers shapes how it is bought. Most customers meet it through their communications provider rather than directly, which usually means it arrives as part of a wider contract.
