According to a survey done by Canadian independent ISP and telco TekSavvy, more than half of Canadians don’t have a clear understanding of their Internet plans. In addition, 67 per cent of respondents believe Internet plans in Canada are too expensive.Am I shocked by that? Not really. I said a while ago that it costs very little for a ISP to bring you Internet access. Plus I’m not surprised that Canadians find that Internet plan offerings from ISPs are confusing. I often get called by clients to help them to make sense of what an ISP offers.
Now TekSavvy has developed a new web application to simplify the process of selecting the right Internet plan based on individual households’ Internet usage patterns. By answering a few simple questions about how their household uses the Internet, consumers can easily determine which Internet plan best meets their needs. Now this is of course slanted towards getting you to sign up to get Internet access from Teksavvy. But I have to admit that when I tried it, it pretty much pegged my needs perfectly. So it could be useful as a means to pick your plan for any ISP so that you can get the most Internet for your hard earned dollars.
The key survey highlights are in an info graphic that I’ve posted below:
