PBX.IM real-time Call Monitoring gives supervisors full visibility into every active call the moment it starts: live dashboards, instant listen-in controls, and AI-powered insights that surface what matters as it unfolds. The tools to see everything and step in when it counts.
Analyze and manage call activities, ensure service quality, and optimize operations.
Every active call, visible at a glance. See agent names, caller details, live duration, and queue assignments, all updating in real time. Filter by team or queue, track SLA compliance as it unfolds, and spot problems before they escalate. No refreshing, no waiting. Just continuous, uninterrupted visibility into exactly what your team is doing right now.

Call monitoring isn't just watching. Silently listen in on any live call, whisper guidance directly to the agent without the customer hearing, or barge in when immediate intervention is needed. Every control is available in real time, from a single dashboard, so supervisors can act in seconds, not minutes.
See which queues are under pressure the moment it happens. Identify high-priority calls at risk, reassign agents on the fly, and step in before a long wait becomes a lost customer. Real-time call monitoring means your team always has backup, exactly when and where they need it.
Know what's happening on a call before it ends. AI-driven transcription runs in real time across multiple languages, flagging key moments and sentiment shifts as they happen. Supervisors get live context on any active call, so decisions are based on what's unfolding now, not a summary written after the fact.
Real-time call monitoring is only as effective as the people using it. Role-based permissions ensure only authorized supervisors can listen in, whisper, or barge, with a full audit trail of every monitoring action. Stay in control of who monitors what, in real time, without compromising compliance.
When live call monitoring isn't enough, the recording is there. Every call is automatically captured, inbound and outbound, securely stored and instantly retrievable. Use recordings to follow up on flagged calls, support compliance reviews, or revisit moments your team needs to learn from.
Stop waiting for the post-call debrief. Call Monitoring gives supervisors real-time coaching tools to guide, correct, and support agents while the conversation is still live.
Allows supervisors to listen in on a call without interruption, ideal for performance reviews and quality assurance.
Enables supervisors to speak directly to the agent, not audible to the customer, useful for live coaching and immediate correction.
Permits supervisors to join an ongoing call, facilitating three-way conversation for critical intervention or support.
What You Miss When You’re Not Listening in Real Time
Supervisors should not have to wait until the call ends to know what is happening. Real-time call monitoring gives you live dashboards so you can see, coach, and act while the conversation is still happening.
Post-call reviews fix yesterday's mistakes. With live call monitoring, managers can listen in, whisper guidance, or barge in when needed so agents get support in the moment, not after the damage is done.
When escalations build in the queue, every second counts. Live call monitoring lets supervisors jump into critical calls and intervene before a frustrated customer becomes a lost one.
By the time a call reaches breaking point, the window to intervene has already closed. Live call monitoring gives supervisors the visibility to spot escalations as they build and step in before they spiral.
Real-time call monitoring means fewer escalations, better coached agents, and customer issues resolved before they become complaints.
Make calls directly from the platforms your team already uses, ensuring efficiency without changing workflows.
What is call monitoring and who can use it?
Call monitoring lets supervisors listen to, coach, or join live calls in real time. It is available to Owners, Admins, Managers, and Supervisors. Agents can also access it if enabled by an Admin.
What call monitoring capabilities are available?
Supervisors have access to three modes. Call Listening for silent observation, Call Whispering to guide the agent without the customer hearing, and Call Barging to step in and join the call directly. Access to each mode is controlled by Admin permissions.
How can supervisors use call monitoring to coach their team?
Call Listening allows silent observation without interrupting the call. Call Whispering lets supervisors give real-time guidance that only the agent can hear. Call Barging allows supervisors to step in and assist directly when immediate intervention is needed.
Will agents know when someone joins or whispers on their call?
Yes. When a supervisor uses Call Barging or Call Whispering, the agent's webphone displays a notification so they are always aware of who is on the call.
Can agents access call monitoring too?
Yes, if an Admin grants them access to live monitoring actions.
Can call monitoring be limited to certain queues or call types?
Yes. Admins can define the scope of monitoring, whether it applies to all calls, specific queues, or selected agents.
Can call monitoring permissions be restricted by user or role?
Yes. Admins can enable or restrict access to Call Listening, Call Whispering, and Call Barging for individual users or entire roles.
Do I need to disclose that calls are being monitored?
Requirements vary by region. In the US, 13 states require two-party consent, meaning all parties must be informed before a call is recorded or monitored. Most other states require only one-party consent. In the EU, GDPR requires explicit consent before any call recording takes place. In the UK, two-party consent is the recommended approach unless you can guarantee the recording will not be shared with third parties. Always refer to your region's official legal requirements for compliance guidance.
