For the average 4-minute on hold message, we recommend no more than 2 music tracks. Having too much variation in music can distract your audience. Longer programs can accommodate more music themes. To sample our music, please visit our production music library.

I haven't used this device for an extended period, but since there are no mechanical parts, I expect that it will last. We have been using a professional on hold service for many years at about $60/month. The box that the professional company gave us sounded great when customers would call from a Lan Line. But, when calling from cell phone the voice messages were lower volume and the music would sound horrible. Music keeps cutting in and out and sounds very staticky. So we decided to save some $ and cancel our subscription and buy this unit. We are using the default music and voice messages that came preloaded instead of doing our own music and messages.
Even if your wait time is short, don’t discount the power of hold music. OnSIP’s average wait time averaged 18 seconds last month, which is just long enough for the caller to notice that the instrumental music is pleasant, with enough character to prevent boredom, before our team picks up. When that’s the last thought in your caller’s head before speaking with your business, it’s likely to be a more pleasant conversation than it might have been otherwise.
A custom on hold message, mixed with on hold music ensures that callers know they are being kept on hold. This is important so customers do not feel abandoned or that they have possibly been disconnected. If there are no on hold messages or music at the end of the line, many callers will not wait long before hanging up. If you can provide them with some useful information, on hold phone messages can keep your callers online for considerably longer, allow time for your operators to answer and reduce the stress of callers.
We have an old at&t Merlin phone system and that could be the cause of volume issue but not sure. If you buy this box and volume is too low for cell phones, I recommend buying the IBOOST to solve this problem.

OUR SOLUTION: We bought a IBOOST 800 audio amplifier. With the volume turned all the way up on both devices, customers calling in on cell phones can now hear voice messages and music much clearer.
Of course you’ll wait. You don’t have a choice. While you are waiting, take the opportunity to wrap your phone in strips of masking tape to give it the look of Eddie Van Halen’s famous “Frankenstrat” guitar.
You will most likely run into the typical Stalingrad-esque repeating messages that state how important your call is to the business. It is only slightly less annoying to have some form of default music that plays on a loop, and gives you the virtual experience of being stuck in an elevator, listening to muzak ad infinitum.
