Professional music on-hold messages provided for keeping customers updated & marketing messages
Full ongoing local support & maintenance
What our client had to say…
The new telephone system and the switch to SIP trunks has not only helped reduce our costs but it’s enabled us to create a new prioritised number for some of our customers which allows our team to easily see which number is being dialled and ensure that the call is answered by the correct member of staff.
The music on-hold service is also fantastic and now offers us a great additional solution to help keep our customers updated with our opening hours and delivery times. A high level of customer service is absolutely vital to our operation and the new system has definitely improved our customers call handling experience.
