A comprehensive understanding of fixed and cellular internet performance in realtime
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.
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.
We produce reports for our government regulator clients. Reports are a great way to inform the public about national broadband services with unbiased, reliable information.
Each month we explore how communication technology is changing the world through SamKnows data and real user stories

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?
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.
