QoE Insights that Give You an Edge
Prevent Churn
Identify and address poor QoE before customers complain or leave. Detect service-, device-, or location-specific outages and resolve them proactively.
Smarter Investment
Optimize network resources based on actual quality impact. Avoid overprovisioning. Invest in better peering, not just bigger pipes.
Competitive Edge
Benchmark against competitors with standardized ITU-T P.1203 MOS scores. Deliver a better customer experience — and back it up with data.
Real Network Optimization with End-to-End Visibility
Gain the Last Mile View into Your Customers' QoE
Translate complex network data into a single, understandable truth: how customers perceive your service. Surfmeter combines video MOS scores, web vitals, and network KPIs into one unified view — from headend to screen.
Pinpoint the Root Cause of Quality Degradation
Go beyond knowing that a problem exists — understand why it happens. Trace issues to specific CDN peering, ISP routing, service updates, or regional degradation with drill-down diagnostics.
Resolve Issues Before Customers Complain
Move from reactive complaint handling to proactive quality management. Detect anomalies, like MOS drops, stalling spikes, and service degradations in real time — and act before they impact your subscribers.
Optimize Performance with Objective Data
Stop guessing, start measuring. Use ITU-T P.1203 standardized quality scores and real service measurements to make targeted optimizations — from network tuning to CDN selection.
See What Your Users See.
Surfmeter automates real OTT service playback and measures what the user actually sees — then calculates standardized quality scores.
MOS (Mean Opinion Score) based on ITU-T Rec. P.1203 — the international standard for predicting viewer satisfaction (scale 1–5).

An Excerpt of our KPIs
Video Streaming QoE
- P.1203 Overall MOSSingle score summarizing perceived video experience across audio, visual quality, and stalling events.
- Initial Loading DelayTime from user action to first frame played. Critical for first impressions and reducing bounce.
- Stalling Events & DurationCount and total duration of buffering interruptions — strongly correlated with user abandonment.
- Average Video BitrateSustained delivered quality level. Validates CDN performance, ABR behavior, and capacity planning.
- Resolution & Quality SwitchesFrequency of mid-stream quality changes. Excessive switching degrades perceived smoothness.
Web Performance
- Largest Contentful Paint (LCP)How quickly the main content becomes visible. A Core Web Vital tied to engagement and SEO.
- First Contentful Paint (FCP)Speed of the first visual feedback. Strong proxy for perceived responsiveness.
- Time to First Byte (TTFB)Backend and network latency until first byte arrives. Improving TTFB lifts many downstream metrics.
- Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS)Measures visual stability during page load to prevent layout jumps that hurt UX.
- DOM Ready TimeTime until the page becomes interactive. Reducing blocking scripts improves responsiveness.
Network Quality
- Download / Upload SpeedMaximum throughput in both directions. The ceiling for achievable video bitrates and page load speeds.
- Latency (RTT)Round-trip delay to the server. Lower latency improves interactivity, gaming, and call quality.
- JitterVariation in packet arrival times. High jitter degrades real-time streaming and conferencing.
- Packet LossPercentage of data packets lost in transit. Even small loss rates visibly degrade video quality.
- ThroughputSustained data transfer rate under real conditions, beyond peak speed measurements.
