ClassiTech Vs Subisu – Which One is Better?

, , , ,

25th November 2020, Kathmandu

Internet users in Nepal are rising at an exclamatory rate (thanks to the Digital Nepal campaign).

There were 10.21 million internet users in Nepal in January 2020. The number of internet users in Nepal increased by 315 thousand (+3.2%) between 2019 and 2020. Internet penetration in Nepal stood at 35% in January 2020.

These internets are provided through different Internet Service Providers (ISPs). Among them, ClassicTech and Subisu are two of the giant internet service providers along with Worldink.

So which one is better? ClassicTech or Subisu? Let’s find out in this article.

Establishment

ClassicTech was formed in 2009 with the main goal to help customers to keep in touch, do business, and to flourish regardless of the distance by using the latest and upgraded technology. Like any other company, they tend to be a leading internet service provider throughout the nation.

Subisu Cablenet Pvt Ltd was established in 2001. It means it is older than ClassicTech. However, in the name of ISP, Subisu is not widely heard and appreciated as much as other ISPs. Their main goal is to provide diversified IT products and services at competitive prices thereby achieving a high level of customer satisfaction.

Vision

ClassicTech: To provide quality internet and network service with higher speed and greater reliability. Responsive customer support with value-added service that provides complete satisfaction to our customers is our first and also the endeavor of ClassicTech.

Subisu: To transform ideas and innovation into viable and creative solution by leveraging the strength of state of art technology and by nurturing and harnessing the skills of well trained, motivated, and committed contribution to the social and economic development phenomena of the country.

Packages

ClassicTech:

It has two plans generally known as Home Plans and Enterprise Plans. In its home plan, there are three different internet packages to choose from, 30 Mbps, 40 Mbps, and 60 Mbps.

Similarly, the Enterprise plan also has three different internet packages; 25 Mbps, 35 Mbps, and 50 Mbps. With the increase in internet users, the ISPs bring different features to their packages. So, ClassicTech brings these packages with the option for a free TV package. Prabhu TV comes free at cost later with more than 250 SD & HD channels at a one-time cost.

Subisu:

With Subisu,  we get only one home plan with three different internet packages. 20 Mbps, 35 Mbps, and 45 Mbps as fiber to the home  (FTTH) internet service. There is an option for choosing the package with a TV (Clear TV). We can even only subscribe to the Clear TV package.

Also, with Subisu, there is a plan for the wireless internet package which has three different internet packages with speeds of 2 Mbps, 3 Mbps, and 5 Mbps.

Cost

The cost of packages is not constant and keeps on changing. As of this date, 24 Nov 2020, the  cost of home plan internet packages for a year’s subscription are as follows:

ClassicTech –

30 Mbps – Rs. 15,000/- with free  IPTV

40 Mbps – Rs. 17,496/- with free IPTV

60 Mbps – Rs. 21,996/- with free IPTV

Subisu –

30 Mbps – Rs. 14,500/- with Clear TV

40 Mbps – Rs. 17,000/- with Clear TV

60 Mbps – Rs. 21,500/- with Clear TV

Note: Above mentioned costs are only after the installation of the device and to renew new ones. The one-time cost of installation of IPTV and Clear TV is required along with the other internet devices.

TIP: Go through the homepage of both of the ISPs to get a clear knowledge about the pricing of the package at this point of reading.

Users

ClassicTech has its very wide network with over coverage into 74 districts of Nepal. The number of users is respectively high in the case of ClassicTech. Although Subisu has its coverage on 60 districts, the number of users is comparatively lesser (according to the different groups of Facebook users and polls).

Conclusion

For the price of the internet package, ClassicTech seems to be a little bit expensive than Subisu. But, the customer service and the number of users make ClassicTech one of the best ISP among other Internet Service Providers (ISPs). However, before choosing your ISP do collect reviews of others near your locality.

Unless you are living under the rock, you are very well aware of the growing tiktok community in Nepal. According to the reports, tiktok users have increased by 25 percent lately. This has impacted the end users of various ISPs. Considering this, Classic Tech has issued a press release ensuring that its users have never had the issue using Tiktok before or after.

First, Let’s know a little about Tiktok!

Tiktok is a short-video sharing platform which is owned by ByteDance based in Beijing, China. The company was founded in 2012 AD. Lately, it has become a craze with internet users, especially the younger generation.

Classic Tech, in a press release, ensured that compared to other ISPs its users have been enjoying uninterrupted internet usage. Be it peak hours or normal hours, it has been consistent in providing the needed bandwidth, it claims.

It has been able to maintain that because the ISP has been using Akamai Server. The company has been using Akamai Server for the management of tiktok content bandwidth.  This has ensured better speed and reliability of the internet.

Apart from this, the company is planning to introduce 12 other high tech servers for the internet bandwidth maintenance within next week.

“Our customers have never had a problem using Tiktok before and they still have no problem. Our technical team is on duty 24 hours a day. We provide a safe internet service to our customers. We request you to use it, ‘said Classic Tech.

The ISP company has also requested the users to contact the company for any sort of inconvenience.

Classic Tech Ahead in the Use of IPv6 Technology in Terms of Percentage

, , , , ,

22nd August 2020, Kathmandu

Classic Tech leads the race to adopt version 6 of Internet Protocol (IP) technology.             

Classic Tech is the first Internet Service Provider (ISP) in Nepal to use IPv6 technology. It has been testing the service for one year now and for 3 months, it has been shifting customers to IPv6 traffic. More than 80% of customers are already on IPv6 traffic and remaining will be converted soon according to the ISP.

What is IPv6?

Basically, it is a new IP address format which was first discovered in 1998. Yes, it’s old but in terms of usability, it is still very new as it still hasn’t managed to replace the existing IPv4 Protocol.

The current IPv4 is 32-bit of which there exist around 4.3 billion public addresses. The quota may soon expire and that’s why we need to make a transition to IPv6.

The sole purpose of the IPv6 is to replace the IPv4 protocol when the time comes.

Even after the end of IPv4, most ISP’s are now using Network Address Translation (NAT) technology based on private addressing.

Stats show that there has been a significant rise in the use of IPv6 technology in Nepal in 2020.

IPV6 For Nepal

Research suggests that it is in the interest of the country, the people, and the service providers to adopt IPv6 technology.

It is also necessary because it allows the assignment of a unique routable public address to communicate with every connected device around the world.

In terms of connectivity, the v6 gives better internet access than IPv4. Furthermore, it does not require NAT technology.

The IPv6 is also highly applicable from a security standpoint.

Classic Tech is at the Forefront in IPv6 Technology in Nepal

Let’s have a look at the IPv6 capability metrics from Apnic.net. It clearly shows that Classic Tech leads the number when it comes to IPv6 capability.

Only seven service providers in Nepal have adopted the technology so far. These are Classic Tech, Worldlink, Smart Telecom, TechMinds, Ncell, Nepal telecom, and Vianet.

IPv6 Technology Nepal

As mentioned earlier, Worldlink is still ahead in terms of sampled users, which is a total of 10293. For Classic Tech, it is 1376.

The test also shows that 38.37% of Classic Tech customers are connected through IPv6. Meanwhile, it is 25.83% for Worldlink, 0.46% for Smart Telecom, 0.15% for Techminds, 0.06% for Ncell, 0.03% for Nepal Telecom and Vianet.

How did Classic Tech Manage to Come on Top?

You might be wondering how Classic Tech managed to top the IPv6 usage stats. It’s all in the stats and numbers really.

IPv6 Technology

77,949 Classic Tech users are using IPv6 technology so far out of 250,008 total customers. This means that 31% of the company’s users are based on IPv6 technology.

Meanwhile, Worldlink has over 1.8 million users and only 443,669 users are using IPv6 technology. This makes up to around 24% of total Worldlink users who are connected to IPv6 technology.

Now, comparing the total number of users, Worldlink leads the way. However, when it comes to the percentage, it is still lagging behind.

Both the ISPs have announced that they will be expanding IPv6 services to their customers. However, other ISPs still have a long way to go.
