Music On Hold
...
Music On Hold (MOH) lets you set up audio program(s) for callers to hear when they are not actively on a call (i.e., on hold, waiting in a queue, parked, or being transferred). Although the audio in MOH is referred to as ‘songs’, you can also include custom announcements, and update them as often as you like. It’s a great tool for communicating with your customers.
...
CAUTION: After making any changes to MOH songs or groups, you must press the red Restart Software button before the changes take effect. This restarts the Switchvox PBX, which will drop any active calls.
