ASC Recording Insights is a native app integrated in Microsoft Teams that allows customers to record and archive one-to-one PSTN-to-Teams calls and Microsoft Calling Plan calls as well as online meetings, video and chat to fully meet compliance requirements.

The program is designed to offer Microsoft customers confidence that participating solutions not only meet all market requirements but also provide a high-quality experience and compatibility when used with Microsoft Teams.
