In Aircall, you can choose to activate or deactivate the call recording feature on each of your phone numbers. Activating this feature is a great way to ensure that you are meeting all your customer's needs and is equally a huge plus when it comes time for training new employees. You can choose to activate either inbound calls, outbound calls, or both. In order to activate this feature, you will need to make sure that you are an Aircall admin user.
⚠️ Prior to activation, please do ensure that call recording is legal in your country of residence.
