Enables quality evaluators, supervisors, and compliance officers to review synchronized audio and screen recordings of agent-customer interactions. This provides complete context for quality assessments, coaching, and compliance verification, bridging the gap between voice-only call monitoring and complete interaction visibility.
Key Capabilities
-
Synchronized playback: View screen recordings alongside voice recordings with a unified, time-aligned timeline.
-
Hold period handling: Screen recording continues during hold periods; audio shows silence gaps for clear timeline alignment
-
Multi-monitor support: Both agent screens are recorded side-by-side in a single video file.
-
Evaluator access: Screen recordings are available to Quality Managers (via Conversation List) and Evaluators (via Reviews).
Limitations
Screen recording is currently available for simple inbound and outbound calls only (the first leg of the call). The following scenarios are not yet supported:
-
Consult calls
-
Consult transfer calls
-
Direct transfer calls
-
Conference calls
-
Screen recordings for subsequent legs (after transfers)
Prerequisites
Before screen recordings appear in QM, ensure the following are configured:
-
VRS: Screen recording is enabled and operational.
-
QM Connector: Configured correctly to push screen recordings to CX.
-
Agent workstation: Screen recording permissions are configured correctly. Follow this Deployment Guide for configurations.
