There’s even a fairly steady stream of surveys and news articles on the subject, all of which confirm that hold music is one of the aspects of contacting call centres that really drives people nuts. Some studies even go as far as to suggest that the use of bad hold music is regularly viewed as bad customer service.
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.
