Compressed video has introduced new challenges to video service providers as video services are more sensitive than previously implemented services and even minor impairments in any segment of the service delivery chain will impact the quality of the service and make it unacceptable for the end customers.

In order to enable efficient maintenance of the service, a need for system which will continually monitor video service quality becomes inevitable.

For purpose of continual monitoring of video services, Ibis Instruments offers Ineoquest comprehensive solution.

Ineoquest IQPinPoint TM is a Multi-Dimensional Video Quality Management TM Solution designed for Digital Video enabled networks. IQPinPoint is a comprehensive platform that is a business driven, multi-faceted approach to improve the content and service provider's ability to reduce video defects and costs, increase profits, and improve customer satisfaction. IneoQuest's "Program Availability Report" aggregates massive amounts of data into a single, five-nines(99.999%) measurement that gives providers an instant QoS gauge of service delivery. By enabling five-nine metrics on a per-channel basis, service providers can fine tune their network and operations to achieve total control over the service(s) they are providing, rather than basing their performance on the number of calls to its customer service center. IQPinPoint™ enables auditing, monitoring, and analysis of thousands of video programs simultaneously and continuously across all network sub-systems over time, enabling a live, real-time, multi-dimensional view of network quality in a single unified dashboard.
