November 23, 2011 in Uncategorized by admin  |  No Comments

Evoca is a featured app in the new Skype App Directory, making Evoca’s global cloud-based digital call recording service readily accessible to over 660 million registered Skype users worldwide. Evoca Call Recorder users can record Skype calls from their computers, smartphones, and tablets, using Skype apps for iPhone, iPad, and Android devices. Skype, the leading global VoIP [Voice over Internet Protocol] telephone brand, was acquired by Microsoft in October 2011.

The Evoca Call Recorder makes it easy to record Skype calls: your own voice, interviews, conference calls, and the audio stream of video calls and then post audio on websites, Facebook, and Twitter, email, or keep private. Evoca subscription plans are popular with journalists, authors, marketers, advocates, educators, students, coaches, and researchers.

A branded custom Skype call recorder also is available to invite visitors, customers, supporters, or fans to record opinions, testimonials, and stories directly into the user’s online Evoca account.
