Dialpad lets you record calls, and then you're able to listen to or download these recordings later on.
Call recording assists in tracking specific details of a conversation. Recall a talking point, or leverage the recording as a concrete record of what has been said and agreed upon during a meeting.
You will not see call recording as an option unless the Office Admin has enabled this feature; therefore, request it with the Office Admin if unavailable on your account.
If you're looking to record a call from a mobile device, visit our Help Center articles on iOS and Android.
Let's take a look at recording a call in Dialpad's desktop app.

From an active call in the Dialpad app, select the Record button.
Call recording turns on, and an interactive voice response (IVR) message will state that the call is being recorded.
If you'd like to turn off call recording at any time, select the Record button again.
