“We take network benchmarking to the next level – as we are the only company with a holistic approach that combines in-depth knowledge of network performance with insights into real-world usage pattern”, says Hakan Ekmen, CEO P3 communications, and continues: “Our crowdsourcing technology is unique, because it allows us to collect data about real-world customer experience in a truly passive way – wherever and whenever customers use their smartphones. With the integration of our crowdsourcing solution into more than 800 diverse apps, we have generated data which is a fair and equal representation as opposed to that of classical speed test apps.”
P3 has more than 15 years of experience in benchmarking mobile networks all over the world and the company is known for aggregating data into meaningful metrics that provide a transparent, balanced and highly accepted picture of the competitive situation across different markets.
