DISH Network vs. Comcast Xfinity TV Technology
Consumers have many options for their television provider but DISH Network continues to lead the pack. From its award-winning Voice Remote to The Hopper 3, an elite DVR system, DISH has it all. You can record 16 programs at once and store 500 hours of the shows you love on The Hopper 3. The Hopper 3 also supports many of your favorite apps such as Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and YouTube. Combine with a Joey receiver and you can have access to 4K HD television in any and every room in your home. Lost remotes are a thing of the past because, with the Remote Finder, you can easily access your remote when you misplace it. DISH even uses industry-leading Hands-Free TV™ technology to connect The Hopper 3 to Amazon Alexa. Features such as AutoHop and Multi-view take your viewing experience to the next level by allowing you to bypass commercials and view 4 shows at the same time, respectively.
DISH Network Service
DISH has built a reputation for itself as a leader in not only features but in its customer service. J.D. Power has ranked DISH Network #1 in customer service. DISH also holds an impressive A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau. With a reliability guarantee, free, professional installation, and a team of professionals ready to serve seven days a week, it’s no wonder DISH Network ranks so high in customer service. DISH continues to update and train its team of experts to follow the latest safety and health protocols and can be reached by phone, email, or online chat.
DISH Network Value
DISH’s America’s Top 120 Package gains you access to more than 190 quality channels from top-rated networks. While Xfinity customers save $10 a month in the first year, that cost saving is quickly negated by a price hike in year 2 and monthly hidden fees. With far more industry-leading features and more than ten times the DVR storage capacity, DISH brings value at every corner. GoDISH customers can even bundle their Internet with top-rated providers like Xfinity to increase their value. Contact GoDISH and enhance your television experience today.
