IP
Service Providers Ignore Customer Experience Metrics at Their Own Risk
Lagging
end-user Quality of Experience (QoE) could be the downfall of IP service
providers if they continue heightened attention on service price cuts
and neglect advancements in test and measurement technology. To ensure
end-user satisfaction, IP service providers will find that objective
testing methods best suit their testing needs, since older methods,
including subjective measurements, consume time and resources without
producing the needed results.
