INTERNET PERFORMANCE MONITORING

A comprehensive understanding of fixed and cellular internet performance in
realtime


AUTOMATICALLY FIND ANYTHING THAT IMPACTS CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE WITH FAULTFINDER

Automatically finding network performance and customer experience issues,
identifying the root cause, and assess the impact on your customers. All in
realtime.

 * Quickly discover and fix network issues
 * Dynamic thresholds reduces false alerts
 * Identify root cause automatically
 * Accurately model customer impact

Find out more

FaultFinder monitors network performance from the perspective of the end user.
It builds a dynamic model of normal performance, constantly learning and
re-learning to adapt to trend shifts. It compares real-time measurements against
these models. When an anomaly is detected it can trace the root cause and also
measure the impact of the fault in terms of performance and the volume of
customers affected.


MEASURE IN-HOME PERFORMANCE WITH REALSPEED

Poor home Wi-Fi is the cause of over 50% of all complaints to ISP care teams. As
well as being the most frequent, they are often the most complicated to resolve.
With RealSpeed, you can measure your home Wi-Fi performance and troubleshoot
problems without having to contact your ISP.

 * Prove the speeds you’re providing to the home
 * Measure Wi-Fi performance around the home
 * Identify any in-home device limitations
 * Enable customers to self-diagnose perceived faults

Find out more

RealSpeed runs two sequential tests automatically. One from your router, this
tests the service provided to the home. The second test from a phone or computer
connected to the home network. Comparing the two results indicates the
performance of the home network on that device and in that location.


APPLICATION MONITORING

Monitor real customer experience to the world’s most popular online
applications. Use the data to optimise connections to these services and make
sure your customers have the best possible access to the services they use the
most. Every year we grow our catalogue of application tests.

NETWORK MONITORING

Monitor the aggregated end-to-end customer experience of your products, from
individual customer homes to on-net and off-net test servers. Add your own
custom metadata to the data collected to enable you to split and filter the
aggregated data to isolate hard to find faults. Make sure you’re meeting minimum
advertised speeds, automatically generates a reports to show your product
performance meets national regulations.

 * Back up advertising claims
 * Investigate hard to find faults
 * Monitor aggregated Quality of Experience

USING SAMKNOWS TECHNOLOGY





SPOTLIGHT MAGAZINE

Each month we explore how communication technology is changing the world through
SamKnows data and real user stories

Spotlight Magazine


SPOTLIGHT: VISION OF A LOW-LATENCY FUTURE

In this edition, we’ll reveal how Comcast is implementing a new technology from
the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) to curb latency, and how SamKnows is
independently measuring the latency improvements being delivered. We’ll also
examine how the industry is rallying around new latency measures such as Apple’s
RPM, to provide a much more realistic picture of the performance on consumers’
broadband connections. 


CUSTOMER STORIES

Find out how our customers are using SamKnows’ technology to monitor and improve
internet services

OUR FIRST EVER REPORT COMPARING BROADBAND OF TWO COUNTRIES

The South Pacific neighbours, Australia and New Zealand, are the closest of
allies, but have a long tradition of being friendly rivals. SamKnows is running
independent broadband measurement studies in both countries, but has just
released a first-of-its-kind joint report. So, why are Australia and New Zealand
benchmarking themselves against each other?


SAMKNOWS HELPED VODAFONE HUNGARY COMPLY WITH EU BEREC REGULATIONS

New EU BEREC regulations required ISPs in member countries to prove they could
provide speeds greater than 1Gbps for customers on their highest package. With
many routers only supporting speeds up to 940Mpbs, Vodafone Hungary sought help
from SamKnows to be able to measure speeds above 1Gbps.
