Epic continues to stand at the top of telecommunications in Malta, with Ookla®, a global leader in connectivity intelligence and network insights, naming Epic the Fastest Mobile Network in Malta for Q3–Q4 2024.

Stephen Bye, President and CEO of Ookla, a division of Ziff Davis, said that after conducting an in-depth analysis of consumer-initiated tests taken with Speedtest, Epic has been named the Fastest and Best Mobile Network in Malta by Ookla’s Speedtest Awards.

“This prestigious award is given to mobile network operators that demonstrate exceptional speed and performance in comparison to other major mobile networks in their market for Q3-Q4 2024. We are thrilled to acknowledge Epic for this achievement, which is the result of their unwavering focus on delivering a superior network experience to their customers."

The Speedtest Awards for top providers in speed are determined using a Speed Score™ that incorporates a measure of each provider’s download and upload speed to rank network speed performance. Tests used to calculate the Speed Score exclusively come from “modern devices,” which are devices capable of connecting to the market’s fastest generally available technology.

Epic’s Speed Score during the award period was 128.33.

With these prestigious awards, Epic reinforces its position as the leading telecommunications provider in Malta, continuing to set new benchmarks in network performance and customer experience and satisfaction.
