MyBroadband\u2019s latest broadband survey shows that Axxess, Afrihost, and Webafrica are the best Internet service providers in South Africa.<\/p>\n

The Q2 2016 broadband survey was completed by 4,267 South African broadband subscribers \u2013 2,732 of whom used an ADSL or fibre ISP.<\/p>\n

To avoid duplicate entries and survey manipulation, a unique token system was used which only allowed invited users to complete the survey.<\/p>\n

To test subscribers\u2019 satisfaction with their ISP, they were asked one question: How likely is it that you would recommend your current ISP to a friend or colleague?<\/p>\n

A 10-point scale was used to rate the likelihood of a user recommending their service \u2013 where 0 is not at all likely, and 10 is extremely likely.<\/p>\n

This is known as the Net Promoter Score, and the results of this question provide a good measure of the loyalty of consumers towards their providers.<\/p>\n

The table below provides a summary of the results of the survey.<\/strong><\/p>\n
