Conference recordings are essential to most businesses today. Not only do they help you remember what was said in a meeting, but they allow for participants who were unable to join the meeting to listen to the conference on their own time. Here is a list of our “recording basics” to get you started.
Recording Audio Conferences:
1. Verify recording is available for the audio conferencing service you are using.

2. Remember…Conferences will NOT automatically record. You must initiate the recording through a star command as the leader. (Unless you are using our Event or Event Answered Services, an operator can perform this function for you if it is requested ahead of time.) Please see our User Guides for specific recording instructions.

Notification:
Once you have started a recording in your audio conference, all existing and new callers will hear the message, “The conference is now being recorded.”
Accessing Recordings:
