With so many important calls being made via Skype nowadays, the capability to save conversations to your computer appears of outmost importance. Discussions of design or engineering concepts, opinions voiced during multi-user conference calls, project-related agreements, terms and a whole lot of other topics and things often expressed in voice should better be saved to a reliable directory, so that you can always find the necessary conversation and use it in a debate.
Unfortunately, Skype does not provide voice recording support "out of the box" and there are no plans of implementation of this feature in any form in the foreseeable future. And that's exactly where Skype Recorder proves useful!
Unlike its competitors, Pistonsoft Skype Recorder allows you to record and save Skype calls both on your computer and on your GMail account . In both cases, audio logs are saved as compact high-quality MP3 files. When saving conversations to your Gmail account, the program names them as "Skype History", so you can quickly select these messages from the entire message directory.
The use of a remote storage saves space on your hard drive and is 100% safe - the software establishes a secure connection with Gmail to submit every Skype history item. Having your Skype chat history files online enables you to find and use your audio Skype history journal from around the world and from any device around the clock. You can also use a single Gmail account to serve as storage space for multiple instances of Skype Voice Recorder and filter/forward incoming messages in the future. For example, you can use the software to monitor your children's or employees' online conversations and automatically receive complete voice logs to your inbox.
Note that the current version of Skype Voice Recorder requires users to provide their Gmail login details. This is only needed once and this information is only used by the software for submitting new messages, so the connection is not constantly open. For additional security, you can always provide a new Gmail account and use it as a forwarder only. Pistonsoft Skype Recorder does not have any special requirements besides Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 and the IMAP protocol being enabled in Gmail settings.
