SAN JOSE, Calif., July 24, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- When Verizon says, "today we're the best we can be and tomorrow we'll be better," it means it. Over the past five years, Verizon has invested more than $4.3B in California ensuring its customers have the best possible experience when they're looking to call, post, stream and text.
These sustained enhancements helped the leading wireless provider come out on top in the latest rankings by RootMetrics®. According to the nation's most rigorous, independent study, Verizon was rated #1 in overall network performance as well as network reliability and call performance in San Jose.
Verizon has been able to pull ahead significantly in network performance in San Jose thanks to consistent investment in reliability, innovation and the latest engineering technologies. Much of the investments have come in the form of small cells – mini cell sites that are hidden in plain sight – on top of traffic signals and utility poles that help boost coverage and capacity in densely populated areas. It's a win-win for the company and its customers as it provides an exceptional network experience.
"Our network team is continuously updating and innovating our network. These enhancements and improvements not only provide our customers with unsurpassed reliability and the best speeds, but lay the foundational support for the next generation network: 5G," said Market President Jonathan LeCompte.
Building the nation's largest and most reliable 4G LTE network means customers can count on Verizon's network in San Jose and across the country, when they need it most.
