Globe At Home tops Netflix ISP speed index for 4th straight month in 2022

lobe At Home has topped the Internet Service Providers (ISPs) performance rating of subscription-based streaming service Netflix in the Philippines for the fourth straight month this year.

Based on the April 2022 Netflix ISP Speed Index, Globe scored the fastest speeds through its Globe At Home Broadband Business. In 2021, Globe At Home also dominated the list for 10 out of 12 months.

Globe’s score is at par with that of the country’s overall rating.  Others in the same category are Argentina, Austria, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Ecuador, France, Greece, India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Paraguay, Poland, Taiwan, Trinidad & Tobago, Turkey, Uruguay, and Vietnam.

Netflix's ISP Speed Index determines which ISPs offer the best viewing experience during peak hours. The data is gathered from subscribers using the online video streaming platform.

The speed index is vital for Netflix streaming because its videos load quickly on networks with low latency, packet loss, and jitter. Otherwise, users may encounter issues such as buffering and pixelization while watching videos.

Globe retains top spot in Netflix ISP Speed Index for the fourth time in 2021

Globe retained its top spot in Netflix ISP Speed Index for May, marking the fourth time this year that the company is recognized for its unrelenting efforts to provide world-class internet connectivity in the country. The latest Netflix report highlights the achievements of Globe in making its network and services better.

Through its Globe At Home broadband business, the telco scored 3.2 Megabits per second (Mbps) in the Index. This score actually indicates that the Philippines is not that far behind other countries and regions which are experiencing world-class speeds on Netflix at 3.4 Mbps and 3.6 Mbps. The United States, where Netflix originated, registered an average of 3.4Mbps in May. Globe has also placed first in January, February, and April.
