Queries that our project should be able to answer:
- Which provider is best in x city for y service? (3G, 4G throughput, call completion ratio, speech quality etc.)
- Which data / off net calls/ on net calls/ application specific data package is the cheapest for x service provider?
- Which service provider has the cheapest data / off net calls/ on net calls/ application specific data package?
- Which telecom providers improved their services from year x to year y?
- Which services were improved upon by telecom provider x from year 1 to year 2?
- What are the latest offers for data and call packages by x operator that I can benefit from given my usage patterns or location of usage?
- Which city has the worst/best value of x kpi?
- How has the cost/service ratio progressed over the years for x telecom provider? (Analyze the historical trend of the cost of data and call packages relative to network performance (signal strength, data throughput, call drop rates))
- Which regions in the country obtain the best performance/cost ratio?
- Which telecom provider performs reasonably well across all regions?
How to Check Data Usage on a Device:
For Android: Go to Settings > Apps. Scroll down to the desired application. We see data usage by mobile data after selecting that application from the list.
For iOS: Go to Settings > Mobile Service. We can see data usage for all the applications. We can see total mobile data used as well.
