Verizon Stands Third In the New Wireless Speed Test


Ookla, the company known for its famous Speedtest services has conducted another speed test for wireless networks and for Verizon, the news isn’t so good! When tested for raw speed, Verizon seems to lag way behind in the race, scoring the third spot.

Ookla’s Speed Test
Ookla is the renowned company that’s responsible for conducting the speed tests for different telecommunication giants including the huge government cell phone providers.

From the data of the past few months, it has been seen that Verizon ranks third in the speed test conducted by Ookla.

It has been a great disappointment on Verizon’s part as the network has been the most expensive one among all the top free government cell phone service providers. Besides offering such pricey prepaid and postpaid plans, the network provider lags way behind in the speed test.

Verizon finds itself in third place in the test behind T-Mobile and AT&T.

However, the Ookla speed test doesn’t necessarily give a clear image of the network as the test data has been collected from the Ookla Speedtest Service users, which is quite a small portion of users.  
Thus, judging the giant government cell phone provider wholly on the basis of such a small amount of diverse users can be a little unjustified.

Also, it has been seen that users generally run a speed test when their network isn’t performing normal and this greatly depends on the devices being used and their location. Thus, the speed test results are greatly diverse and biased.

On the other hand, Ookla has been considered to be a renowned name for its speed test services, thus, people are still going to judge Verizon on the basis of this test.

The reasons behind the slowed down speed of the Verizon network are considered to be many. But as per T-Mobile, Verizon’s situation has gotten this bad because of the new unlimited plans being introduced by the giant free governmentcell phone service provider.

Also, when you look back at the recent performance of the telecom giant, Verizon has been losing its name in the market because of slowed down speed and interrupted services.

This has inversely impacted the reputation of the free government cell phone service provider.
Conversely, with an inclining growth curve towards a good reputation and success, T-Mobile has been coming out as one of the widely expanding government cell phone service providers.

According to the speed test, AT&T has also maintained its position in the top 2 networks as usual.

In a Nutshell
Recently, the news headlines have not been in favor of the biggest government cell phone service provider, Verizon. Thus, the telecom giant is losing its good reputation in the market.
It might be just a bad phase for the service provider but it’s making Verizon lose its subscribers and customers in a large amount. To get back on track, Verizon needs a great data plan and the company must start working on improving its raw speed so as to win its customers and reputation back in the market.
