The paid version gives you access to all the reporting from the test ran against your server.

We can’t control utilization on the Internet, but we can internally. -Aaron From: Colton Conor [mailto:colton.co...@gmail.com] Sent: Friday, January 18, 2019 8:37 AM To: Aaron Gould Cc: NANOG Subject: Re: Network Speed Testing and Monitoring Platform Aaron, How does the https://account.speedtestcustom.com/login differ from hosting a speedtest.net<http://speedtest.net> server as an ISP, and letting anyone test through it? Seems the speedtest custom is a paid option, but hosting a speedtest.net<http://speedtest.net> server is free if you allow it to the public domain. Sure it uses up bandwidth (which I am sure you have a ton of), so I don't see the point of having a custom one?
