  • On a global level, the most popular strategies employed to manage OTT are fair usage policies (40%), followed by bandwidth caps (34%) and proprietary OTT services (22%).


  • While the majority of respondents agree that OTT allows for the creation of new services and revenue streams, some operators - particularly those outside North America - believe that OTT presents considerable risks.


  • Nearly 62% of respondents reported using only one type of monitoring tool, raising questions about the way providers are analyzing OTT bandwidth consumption.
