Before choosing a digital service provider, you need to focus on some points that will help you make the right choice. So, you should pay attention to:
Although this moment was relevant at the dawn of the home Internet.Now almost all providers offer unlimited tariffs.
At the same time, it is important to look not only at the maximum speed indicated in the contract, but also to clarify the minimum. After all, 10 Mbps are included in the specified range up to 100 Mbps.
The most commonly used technology is ADSL or fiber optic connection.
ADSL uses telephone lines. A prerequisite for connecting using this technology is the presence of a modem. The quality of the connection and its stability directly depend on the quality of the modem.
The fiber optic connection eliminates the need for a modem and extends directly to the computer via a cable. Here you should carefully consider the quality of the cable being laid, because the quality of the services provided will depend on it.
Before you start using the services of any company, first call the customer service. Pay attention to how quickly you were answered, how patient and polite the operators were. Find out how quickly the master arrives if necessary, whether there is compensation for failures in the supply of services, etc. After all, the better the technical support works, the more likely it is that the whole company will work better as a whole.
Customer reviews are an important tool when choosing a provider. Do not limit yourself to the official websites of companies, read reviews on forums dedicated to this topic.
We, in turn, have collected the most recent and relevant information about the most popular providers in Kazan, which we propose to read below.

Having considered the 7 most popular Internet providers in Kazan with their advantageous offers, I would like to sum up and highlight the key points.
The clear leaders of the rating were KGS and Dom.ru. KGS pleases users with quality services, a high level of service and relatively low prices, for which it receives a large number of positive reviews. Dom.ru is more expensive than almost all of the named competitors, but the high cost is justified by the quality of the services provided.
The next Internet providers are two companies that were originally providers of mobile communications, these are Beeline and MTS. Despite the fact that MTS currently offers Internet (100 Mbps) for a promotion of only 190 rubles per month. and a huge selection of various tariff plans, the company is far from being the leader in the rating. She was let down by a low level of service, constant network breaks and many dissatisfied customers. Beeline, unlike its predecessor, has won more trust from users. Despite the outdated connection technology, the company is in demand. And in addition to stable Internet for 300 rubles. per month, offers a comprehensive package for only 450 rubles. In addition, Beeline boasts a convenient and informative website and user account.
Rostelecom is the largest digital service provider in the country, which has won the trust of many customers. The price position of the company is moderate: Internet from 350 rubles, a range of services from 349 rubles. Separately, it is worth highlighting the tariff plan for gamers. Of the minuses - the difficulties in terminating the contract, which are not mentioned at its conclusion.
Remained MELT and TTK.Speaking about MELT, it is worth noting that the company does not provide cable television services. As for the Internet, it is distinguished by stability and a low subscription fee (from 350 rubles). TTK, although it provides a television service, does not provide an opportunity to familiarize yourself with the conditions on the site. TTK also uses ADSL technology, which is not the most modern at all. Of the benefits - the possibility of self-blocking, a bonus program. A significant disadvantage is that with a zero balance, the service is disabled and the debt begins to grow.
Which provider you choose depends on your needs and goals. Our task was to highlight the main advantages and disadvantages of the most popular of them and make your choice easier.
