1st key : The value for the money
Before, rules of success were easy to understand :
Brand name
Access to the market
People that have video / television / telecommunication knowledge
Money
Content access
Ability to deploy and deliver
But now, what about :

2nd key : the EMOTION or at least the INTEREST
To cut a long story short:
Content: Multiple strategy : from premium exclusive content to content agregation
Services: The technological evolution have no limit like imagination
Content / Services
Happyness / Usefulness
“Very important topic but it’s not the today subject ...”

3nd key : What about the quality ?
The famous QoS : Quality of Service
Everything seems under control (from this man point of view …)

I can see most components.
Services are under control.
From my point of view, everything is OK !
Supervision Console
Really ?
My channel change time is too slow
Too much freezes
Phone call quality drop
when I switch my TV on
I paid for this movie,
but where is it ?
Hey, I get bad images since
you use vacuum cleaner

Momentary pixellisation transparent to QoS probes

We are no longer in a network centric world ...
Could it be, one day, totally under control ?
NO ... Main raison : the world has changed

Front of QoS approach lacks, we try to ask to the customer ...

Can we rely on customers feedback ?
The human is not 100% objective
★ He is not ubiquitous
★ He is expensive
★ He can’t tell what happened and why
★ Providers and customers don’t see the same things
★ And most of all … it’s often too late!

So what ?
Solution is not “generating more and more” datas
The problem is different, we have to be DIFFERENT
We need to change the approach :
Bottom up Top down
Cause to consequence Consequence to Cause
Add QoE information and QoS datas
In fact QoE is the What and QoS is Why

With this approach we can see real problems

3 top QoE priorities for end users
1.AVAILABILITY : it’s the top priority when launching a service
2.PERFORMANCE : channel changing time for exemple 2005 : between 5 s - 9s
2007 : between 1.5 - 3.7s
now (P+/P-) : around 2s and between 0.5s and 0.8s with special optimizations
3.FIDELITY : quality of image / sound measure with Witbe VideoMOS IPTV / DSL : between 2.5 - 3.2
Cable TV : between 3.5 - 4.3
1. But industry works very hard to improve it ... and fiber arrives ...

Quality and the bottom line
Bad Quality of Experience = bad user experience
Causes considerable churn (up to 30% in 2004 at launch, < 10% now)
Is bad for brand image
Increases support costs (calls / sub / year)
Is a pity for the turnover and business opportunities
Good Quality of Experience
Creates a feeling of proximity and reduces stress
Instills loyalty & trust.
People say they’d call more often and watch more TV
• Pay more for quality
• Switch providers
Thank you !
