This is Lane Beattie of the Salt Lake Chamber with your Utah Business Report.
When using your phone for data tasks, you want both a reliable and a fast experience: you want to do what you want, when you want, as quickly as possible, without interruption or failure. We use our phones for a variety of data tasks. RootMetrics aims to find out which providers offered the best tested data performance across the country.
I'd like to congratulate AT&T for ranking first in a RootMetrics study looking at the data performance at the top fifty busiest airports across the U.S. Other data providers ranked in the study include Verizon, T-Mobile and Sprint.
AT&T ranked first or tied for first at 36 of the fifty airports studied, including Utah's own Salt Lake City International Airport.
Categories AT&T came out on top in data performance include: email reliability, email service, upload and download speeds, and web or app performance.
In second place overall, Verizon ranked first in 19 of the airports involved in the RootMetrics study.
