Converge ICT Solutions Inc. on Monday emerged the winner of the Ookla Speedtest Award for best ISP video experience in the Philippines in the second half of 2022.
The company recorded an overall 80.99 video score which is the outcome of a consumer-initiated scoring system during a six-month period. The video scoring rates users’ video experience from 0 to 100.
“Filipinos have spoken, and we have emerged as the ISP giving the superior video experience to them. This speaks for itself: our high speed, high capacity internet produces the best experience in streaming and consuming video content whether for gaming or entertainment. This is a mark of excellence in service for us,” Dennis Anthony Uy, chief executive and co-founder of Converge said.
Converge has consistently performed in Ookla’s consumer-initiated ratings, winning Most Consistent Network across five regions in the last quarter of 2021 and crowned the Top Rated Fixed Network for the first half of 2022.
The enterprise also topped video streaming giant Netflix’s ISP Speed Index in December 2022, proving its steady No. 1 ranking in Netflix’s monthly speed index for most of 2022.
In November, Converge upgraded its suite of connectivity plan offerings by doubling the speed of its base plan from 100 Mbps to 200 Mbps at no extra cost for its unlimited bandwidth and no data-cap services. The company is the first and only internet service provider in the Philippines to upgrade its network backbone data transmission capacity to 800 Gbps, making it possible to facilitate high-speed data transfers vital for streaming.
“Our mission has always been to give Filipinos the best digital experience. Winning this award attests to our hard work of continuously upgrading and expanding our network and diversifying our products and services,” Converge chief operations officer Jesus C. Romero said.
Ookla, the company behind the semi-annual Speedtest Awards, is a global leader in mobile and broadband network intelligence, testing applications, and related technologies.
