Smarsh Call Recording and Analytics vs Soteria Teams Compliance

Smarsh Call Recording and Analytics captures, secures, and analyzes conversations for compliance leaders. Its Microsoft Teams coverage includes calls, meetings, and collaboration, with meeting capture that can include multiple video streams and shared screens. Policy-driven capture covers calls through Teams on mobile or desktop, while Operator Connect and Direct Routing support recording across mobile and hybrid environments. Deployment can be cloud, hybrid, or on-premise, with role-based access and retention policies. Recordings use encryption, policy enforcement, and data-sovereignty controls; secure archiving and defensible exports support audits, regulators, and internal reviews. Analytics include AI-driven intelligence, sentiment analysis, reporting, transcription, and AI call summaries. Core Call Recording features include immutable storage and metadata capture. Smarsh cites requirements including GDPR, MiFID II, HIPAA, and FINRA for its voice records. Android and iOS are listed as platforms. Pricing is available on request; the listed plan directs prospective customers to schedule a demo or contact sales for a quote.

Soteria Teams Compliance records Microsoft Teams voice, chat, video, screen activity, files, and other content from Teams clients and Teams-enabled devices. Recorded interactions can be searched, transcribed, categorised, and analysed. Compliance teams use a single-view portal to configure activity triggers and alerts, while administrators set retention periods and legal holds for their jurisdiction. Recordings remain in an evidential-weight vault, with archiving, retrieval, access control, and erasure when retention is no longer needed. The maker says deployments can be customised for a regulatory jurisdiction and records can be audited for regulatory reporting. The product is certified for Microsoft through its Independent Software Vendor programme. Deployment options include Insightful Cloud, on-premise, hybrid, AWS, and Azure environments. Its FUSION platform integrates with more than 240 data sources, and the solution works with the company’s case management tool. It is a paid web product with pricing on request, aimed at highly regulated and litigious organisations.
