Our take
DISH came onto the market with the goal of providing TV to the millions of Americans who live in rural areas, launching satellites into space and paving the way for the multi-faceted company it has become today.
DISH invented the world’s first DVR, introduced new pricing structures, developed the voice remote, and launched SLING TV (the world’s first live TV streaming platform). Plus, Dish is still able to boast some of the highest overall customer satisfaction scores in the industry.
The company has further expanded into consumer wireless services through Boost Mobile and other brands. By bringing a range of mobile and TV services to people in both rural and urban areas, Dish Network is well set to remain a major player in the industry.
