Ookla
Ookla is a leading provider of mobile and broadband network intelligence, specializing in testing applications and technology. The company operates its flagship platform, Speedtest, which facilitates over 10 million consumer-initiated tests daily, delivering critical insights into network performance, quality, and accessibility worldwide. Ookla also owns Downdetector, a service that offers real-time analysis of service status and outages. The company's solutions encompass both crowdsourced and controlled network testing, providing comprehensive insights on network conditions, quality of service (QoS), quality of experience (QoE), and consumer experience. Operators, businesses, and government agencies depend on Ookla for immediate and accurate information to enhance connected experiences. Headquartered in Seattle, Washington, Ookla also has offices in Memphis, Tennessee, and Dublin, Ireland.
Downdetector.com provides real-time insight into availability of all kinds of services. It aims to track any service that its users consider vital to their everyday lives, including (but not limited to) internet providers, mobile providers, airlines, public transport and online services. Down detector was launched in 2012. It is owned and operated by Serinus42 BV and was developed from the notion that existing solutions did a poor job at informing the public. People who were affected by an outage typically turn to their provider or the media for updates, but in fact they know best if there are any issues. They will continue to drive future changes and improvements, as well as expand to other countries.
