"Hideous! Adds nagware pop-up that I can't stop!"
Version: Call Recorder for Skype 2.3.19
Pros
None - I didn't really try it or buy it. Now all I get is the Nagware they installed
Cons
NEVER DOWNLOAD unless you plan to absolutely buy it immediately- as the Nagware installed is very irritating.
I found a freeware Call Recorder that I use that's just perfect.
Doesn't seem to uninstallSummary
I don't recall using it even. I may have looked at the interface, but I found the freeware one and now live with the Nagware pop-up demanding I buy it.

"Easy to use, low sound quality from my test"
Version: Call Recorder for Skype 2.3.4
Pros
Easy to install
Easy to use
Records the calls as statedCons
Echo upon playback
Summary
I really hoped that this product worked perfectly, I would definitely have paid the $15 for it. I installed it on a MacBook pro and tested the call (free trial) with my business partner who is on a PC. The recording had a very loud echo from the caller side - my side sounded perfect. Although I did not hear any echo during the call, only on the recorded playback. (My business partner has a Skype recording plugin that creates an echo while recording)
If this problem is fixed somehow in the next version, I would purchase it. I gave it 2 stars because it is very easy to use and the recordings are easy to find and playback. I just wish the PLAYBACK sound was good! -
"Smooth Product"
Version: Call Recorder for Skype 1.0.5
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
Works very nicely. I did an interview for the Jazz Zine with Paquito D'Rivera while he was in Poland. I live in California. It came off perfect with no glitches or poor quality sound. The audio was near excellent. -
"Doesn't work with Logitech Headsets"
Version: Call Recorder for Skype 1.0.3
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
I have a Logitech 350 USB headset and didn't realize that this plugin is not compatible with logitech headsets. I purchased it and about 5 minutes into a call it drops the other callers. I am so far very unhappy with this product. -
"Incredibly easy to use"
Version: Call Recorder for Skype 1.0.3
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
After trying to find a way to record Skype calls, and finding most solutions far too complicated, Call Recorder seemed the way to go. And it was. The temporary bug in the last version has been quickly resolved, and it works incredibly well. You don't have to do a thing (well, perhaps convert the QuickTime movie file into mp3 with the converter that goes with the software). Highly recommended. -
"Showed Promise Until......"
Version: Call Recorder for Skype 1.0.1
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
The third time that I used it. The program records the audio in two separate tracks. Track one is you, track two is everyone else on your skype call. Well I had two interviews for my podcast messed up because the audio tracks overlapped. Once my track was 40 seconds ahead of the second track and another it was 30 seconds behind.
Then, when one of the podcasts that I'm involved in did a 5 way call, my audio track was 6 MINUTES off. Well that and the convert to MP3 program would crash every time I tried to use it on that file. Only using Quick Time was I able to listen to the recording. Needless to say our hour and twenty minute show was waisted.
I was unable to find a program that would open the file and show the different audio tracks so that I could edit them and fix the issues. Needless to say I will just use AHP from now on, I can not afford to take the risk with the product any more.
It really is to bad since the audio quality of the first two times I used it were quite good. -
"Always on"
Version: Call Recorder for Skype 1.0.1
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
One of the really big advantages of Call Recorder is that it can be always on whenever you launch Skype; and once you've set it up, you can forget it except to collect your recordings. You can also record with Audio Hijack Pro from Skype, but you have to remember to launch Audio Hijack Pro, then hijack Skype, then click record. Then click off when you're finished. Call Recorder avoids all that and turns on when you make a call, and off when you're finished - no need to think about it. On versiontracker it costs $14.95 but on the site they're selling it for $12.95. One annoying complaint - despite selecting the desktop to dump recordings, Call Recorder insists on putting them in a folder called "saved calls" - it's either a bug or a developer trying too hard to keep things neat. Non-the-less it gets five stars because it really is a work saver. -
"EXCELLENT Support"
Version: Call Recorder for Skype 1.0
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
A followup to my earlier problem...in response to the demo errors, the publisher sent a full working copy over for me to test in record time, which was amazing on its own.
The program itself is small, unobtrusive, and simple. The quality of the recorded calls is as expected for the different quality control levels, and the entire process is automated. When you're done, you are simply left with a .mov of the conversation. Packaged within is a small app which will convert this movie automatically into an mp3, which is a nice and very welcome additional tool.
All in all, this program is clean and does what it says. Given the excellent support as well, it's a sound addition to the Skype program.
