Cisco Call Recording Software and Solutions

Cisco call recording captures calls flowing through CUCM, Jabber, UCCX, CUBE, and Webex Calling, and makes them searchable, playable, and retainable. call-recording.com is a self-service Cisco call recording solution: it overlays your existing Cisco phone system, records through Cisco’s own media forking mechanisms, and manages every Cisco voice recording from a cloud dashboard with AI transcripts and audit controls.

How it works

How Cisco call recording works

Cisco platforms fork call media in three main ways. call-recording.com receives all three, so one recording archive covers desk phones, softphones, contact-center agents, trunks, and Webex Calling users.

CUCM + Built-In Bridge

Phone-based recording

Cisco IP phones and Jabber softphones use the Built-In Bridge and a recording profile to send a copy of each call over a SIP trunk to the recording server. Configuration is proposed, shown for approval, and validated with a real call.

CUBE + SIPREC

Network-based recording

A Cisco Unified Border Element records at the trunk with SIPREC (RFC 7866), capturing calls regardless of the endpoint — useful for carrier trunks, mixed device estates, and contact-center traffic.

Webex Calling

Cloud recording

Webex Calling records in the Cisco cloud. A one-time Service App authorization in Control Hub lets call-recording.com archive call recordings, chat messages, and meeting content automatically.

No rip and replace

Works with the Cisco phone system you already run

call-recording.com is an overlay, not a replacement. CUCM keeps processing calls exactly as before; recording is added through Cisco’s supported mechanisms, and every proposed CUCM change is displayed for administrator review before it is applied. The recording server is customer-hosted — containers, VMware, Hyper-V, cloud compute, or supported Cisco edge platforms — keeps voice traffic inside your network, and delivers recordings to the cloud over outbound HTTPS with no inbound internet ports or port forwarding. If the network drops, local persistence and delivery journaling retry until every recording is confirmed uploaded.

FAQ

Cisco call recording questions

What is Cisco call recording?

Cisco call recording captures the audio of calls that flow through Cisco calling infrastructure — Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM), Cisco Jabber softphones, UCCX contact centers, CUBE session border controllers, or Webex Calling — and stores the media with searchable metadata for playback, retention, and review. Cisco provides the media forking mechanisms (Built-In Bridge, SIPREC, and Webex cloud recording); recording software such as call-recording.com receives, stores, transcribes, and manages the recordings.

What recording solution works with existing Cisco infrastructure without replacing our phone system?

call-recording.com overlays your existing Cisco environment instead of replacing it. CUCM keeps handling calls exactly as it does today; a recording profile and Built-In Bridge (or a CUBE SIPREC session) fork a copy of the media to a lightweight customer-hosted recording server, which delivers it to the cloud dashboard over outbound HTTPS. No phone system replacement, no inbound firewall ports, and the proposed CUCM configuration is shown for administrator approval before anything is applied.

Does it record Cisco Jabber calls?

Yes. Cisco Jabber registers to CUCM like a desk phone, so Jabber calls are captured through the same CUCM recording configuration — Built-In Bridge on supported softphone device types, or a gateway recording path such as CUBE SIPREC — and follow the same recording policies as physical IP phones.

Can it support CFTC-compliant call recording on Cisco phone systems?

Recordkeeping rules such as CFTC regulations 1.31 and 1.35 generally require complete capture of in-scope communications, defined retention periods, timely retrieval, and demonstrable integrity. call-recording.com provides always-on capture for configured Cisco call paths, configurable retention, fast search and playback, access controls, and audit logging that can support such a program. No product makes an organization compliant by itself: your compliance team remains responsible for scoping, consent, retention periods, and regulatory interpretation.

How do I archive Webex meeting recordings and chat messages?

Authorize the CallRecording Service App once in Webex Control Hub. call-recording.com then archives Webex Calling recordings, space chat messages, and meeting content automatically through Webex webhooks — no exports, bots, or per-user setup. See the dedicated Webex page for the setup walkthrough.

What is the difference between Cisco call recording software and a Cisco call recording solution?

In practice, vendors use "software" for the product you deploy and "solution" for the product plus the deployment architecture and operating model around it. call-recording.com is both: cloud-managed recording software, delivered as a self-service solution — guided CUCM setup, a customer-hosted recorder you deploy on containers, hypervisors, or cloud compute, and cloud search, retention, AI transcription, and audit tooling — without a paid installation project.

Legal and compliance content is general information, not legal advice. See the call recording law guide for consent and notice considerations.
