1.Most Hosted/Cloud PBX systems play the on-hold message from the beginning each time the call is placed on hold. 2. Because of the hold music starting at the beginning each and every time, if you have a 4-minute music on hold message created, the only folks who will hear minutes 2, 3 and 4 are those you leave on hold for that length of time

2 days after ordering my Grace Message Player, it came from Amazon in perfect condition (I got prime yo!). I plugged the power cord in, and plugged the male thingy into the Grace thingy, and bam, we have had on hold music ever since. After a few minutes of music, they have a male voice come on explaining that we care but we are busy...we have not forgotten you etc etc, and then some more music, and then a female voice saying basically the same thing. I guess I could load an mp3 with some sales stuff on it, but I kind of like the neutural message that they already had on the machine. I am sooo glad I got this thing. Highly recommended. If you don't like it or it does not work, I bet Amazon would take it back, too.
