Call Recording Benefits

More and more businesses are discovering the benefits of call recording. In addition to saving valuable resources, call recording can also provide a range of other benefits, such as:

• Rules Based Recording – The system can be set up to record or not record on a wide variety of rules. Examples include recording by extension number, caller ID received, number dialed, time of day, representative, or other factors. Options can even exclude any confidential conversations. This system can be set up to automatically send copies of the conversations you define as important via email.
• Improve Customer Service – Set up performance reviews and create custom report cards for customer service representatives by using the call recording software inside the call recording systems offered by ICS.
• Improve Employee Training – Train and improve members of your staff by using real calls as examples. You can use calls from your best representatives as positive examples, and even provide warnings of situations to avoid.
• Monitor Employee Quality – Use rule based call recording, available in all the systems sold by ICS, which allows you to record the calls for specific employees from 10% of the time up to 100% of the time, and then sends those calls to management so they can monitor the quality of those calls.
• Resolve And Prevent Disputes – Protect your organization against litigation in regards to the confirmation of verbal agreements. Stop relying on sales agents or customers to explain what happened during a call. Save time by resolving disputes immediately, by pulling the call and listening to what was actually said.
• Ensure Legal Compliance – For businesses that must adhere to strict rules or laws like the ones outlined in HIPAA(Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act), telephone call recording provides proof of compliance in the event of an audit or when a questioned about fulfillment of those requirements.
