3CX licensing Essential
3CX Transcription can scale with your license. ENT/AI licenses enable voicemail transcription, while ENT+ unlocks full-call AI Transcription, no add-ons or external APIs required.
With instant transcripts, staff can search by keyword, follow up on key points and share summaries without replaying recordings. Teams save time on admin work and focus on customers instead.
Your data stays secure with your on-premise or cloud setup that follows GDPR and privacy standards. Reports and timestamps help show service quality and compliance.
The AI engine identifies speakers and tracks sentiment trends, giving managers insight into customer satisfaction and team performance directly in the Admin Console.
3CX now supports reliable diarization, capturing each side of a call on separate tracks. This allows the system to know exactly who said what with 100% accuracy. Unlike other transcription tools that guess speakers, 3CX diarizes conversations reliably by separating both audio channels. This reduces AI processing load, lowers running costs and ensures transcripts are always correct. You’re no longer left guessing, every call is logged with perfect speaker identification.
Calls are automatically transcribed using Google, OpenAI or 3CX AI technology, fully built into your system for full control. You can run transcription on the 3CX Cloud or your own server. Both options keep data private, avoid third-party sharing and remain cost-efficient. Over time, transcripts form a searchable knowledge base stored as vectors, helping receptionists and teams find information instantly. It offers great efficiency to companies that rely on such evidence in a court of law or customer disputes.
