Customer Perspectives on QoE (Quality of Experience) for Streaming Video

The primary goals of this research are to highlight how important video quality is to broadcasters, publishers, and OTT platforms with regards to their monetization strategy. It also showcases how QoE (quality of experience) can have a positive or negative impact to their business and how easily it can be measured.

With video delivery having improved so much over the past few years, QoE measurement now has to take place on a very granular and detailed level. This causes internal challenges for companies that are working on best practices to do so across multiple CDNs. As video streaming usage continues to grow at higher qualities, such as 1080p with HDR and 4K, content owners will need to offer better video quality across all devices, including mobile and live sports events.

Survey respondents came from those responsible for the video experience at broadcast, publishing, and OTT services for live and on-demand content. It also included those responsible for building out video delivery services, including those involved with caching, content distribution, and network build-out.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
