A. INTRODUCTION
The cellular business market in Indonesia seems very promising indeed, it's
no wonder that the cellular business actors are so aggressive in fighting over the
market. Moreover, the consumptive lifestyle of the Indonesian people is an indicator
of the attractiveness of this business. Developments in communication technology as
well as the increasing number of providers in Indonesia have made competition
among cellular operators increasingly tight, especially with the internet. The people's
need for an internet connection continues to grow which drives a lifestyle to enjoy
high speed internet in all locations. Cellular network and fixbroad band have not been
able to meet the public's need for high speed mobile broadband. So we need a
technology that can accommodate these needs.
Telkom Group has products capable of providing high-speed internet services
through Indihome and Wifi.id. However, these two products have limited coverage
and production costs, so a solution is needed to increase the coverage area that can
serve the internet needs of the community along with efficient production costs.
Wifi.id is a product that has the potential to increase its coverage area due to the
Furthermore, it was stated that in addition to service quality that can affect
customer satisfaction, it is also product quality according to the theory put forward
by Kotler and Armstrong (2012). Product quality is something that needs special
attention from companies or manufacturers, considering that product quality is
closely related to customer satisfaction issues, which is the goal of marketing
activities carried out by a company. According to Tjiptono (2013) in Afnina and
Hastuti (2018) product quality is an effort to meet or exceed customer expectations
where quality includes products, services, people, processes, and the environment.
Quality is a state of constant change (what is considered quality today may be
perceived as less quality in the future). According to Tjiptono et. al (2012) in Putro
(2014) there are eight product quality indicators, namely: (1) performance, (2)
product features, (3) reliability, (4) compliance with specifications, (5) durability,
(6) ability to repaired, (7) aesthetics, (8) perceived quality.
One of the main factors that must be considered by the company is product
quality where customers will be satisfied if the results of their evaluation show that
the products they use are of high quality. So the better the quality of the product, the
higher the satisfaction felt by the customer. Product quality is defined as something
that can be offered to the market to be noticed, owned, used, or consumed so as to
satisfy a want or need (Kotler, 2010: 280). According to Selnes (1993) in Jonson
(2006) customer satisfaction is very dependent on how the quality level of the
product offered. Therefore product performance as perceived by customers affects
customer satisfaction. This is in line with research conducted by Afnina and Hastuti
(2018) and Maulidah et al., (2019) which state that there is a fairly strong and
positive relationship between product quality and customer satisfaction. In addition,
it was also found that product quality has a significant influence on customer
satisfaction. Based on the description above, the hypothesis proposed is:
H2: Product quality has a positive and significant effect on customer satisfaction.
Laksana, (2008), service is any action or activity that can be offered by one party
to another, which is basically intangible resulting in any ownership. Service quality
reflects a comparison between the level of service delivered by the company
compared to customer expectations. Service quality is built on a comparison of two
main factors, namely customer perceptions or the service they actually receive with
the service they actually expect (Tjiptono and Chandra, 2019). This shows that the
level of service provided to customers has a considerable impact on customer
satisfaction, but services that are less than optimal will reduce the level of customer
Data collection techniques are the most important step in research, because
the main purpose of research is to get data. The collection technique in this study was
carried out through observation, interviews, questionnaires and literature study.
In accordance with the results in the table above, a multiple linear regression
equation model can be created for this study as follows:
The equation above shows that: Constant value = 1.557; meaning that by
assuming the independent variable constant, the value of customer satisfaction at PT.
Telkom Indonesia Regional 7 of 1.557 units; If there is an additional service quality
value (X1) of 1 unit, it will increase customer satisfaction at PT. Telkom Indonesia
Regional 7 of 0.347 units assuming other variables are constant. If there is an
additional product quality value (X2) of 1 unit, it will increase customer satisfaction
at PT. Telkom Indonesia Regional 7 of 0.353 units assuming other variables are
constant.
The magnitude of the relationship between variables can be seen by looking at the
correlation coefficient (R). From the table it can be seen that the value of R = 0.642,
this means that the relationship between the variables of service quality and product
quality with customer satisfaction at PT. Telkom Indonesia Regional 7 is positive and
the relationship is moderate.
Hypothesis test is carried out with 2 tests, which are used to test the effect of
the independent variables on the dependent variable partially or individually.
Technically the test is carried out by comparing the tcount value with the ttable value
at the significance level α = 0.05. Based on the calculation results in the appendix, the
partial test results (t-test) can be presented in the following table.
Table 3. Partial Test Results (t-test)
The results of the partial test (t-test) which are summarized in the table above
can be explained as follows: The t-count value of the service quality variable (X1), is
greater than the t-table value (8.214 > 1.980) and its significance value (sig.) smaller
than the required (0.000 < 0.05). These results indicate that service quality has a
positive and significant effect on customer satisfaction at PT. Telkom Indonesia
Regional 7 (first hypothesis proven or accepted).
The t-count value of the product quality variable (X2), is greater than the t-table value
(9.004 > 1.980) and its significance value (sig.) is smaller than the required (0.000
<0.05). These results indicate that product quality has a positive and significant
effect on customer satisfaction at PT. Telkom Indonesia Regional 7 (second
hypothesis proven or accepted).
Then a simultaneous test (F-Test) is used to test the significance of the influence
of the independent variables on the dependent variable. The testing technique is
carried out by comparing the Fcount value with the Ftable value at a significance level
of 0.05 and a level of confidence of 95%.

E. DISCUSSION
The Effect of Service Quality on Customer Satisfaction
Based on the results of data analysis in this study, it shows that service quality has a
positive and significant effect on customer satisfaction at PT. Telkom Indonesia Regional 7 .
This means that the existence of service quality which includes tangible, reliability,
responsiveness, assurance and empathy can affect customer satisfaction. The better the
quality of the services provided, the more impact it will have on increasing customer
satisfaction. (Wijaya, 2011: 152) states that service quality is a measure of how well the level
of service provided is able to match customer expectations. Service quality is very important
for companies because it will attract customers to buy the products offered. Service quality
that meets customer expectations will create a sense of satisfaction in customers, this
satisfaction results in customers deciding to continue buying the products offered. If the
quality of service provides something that is in accordance with the customer's perception,
the higher the satisfaction felt by the customer. The results of this study are relevant to the
results of research conducted by Rina Martiana and Sheli Apriani (2019) who found that
there is a positive and significant influence between service quality and customer satisfaction
at Cafe Deumdee Rangkasbitung. Likewise the results of research conducted by Handayani

accuracy, ease of operation and product repair and other valuable attributes. One of
the main factors that must be considered by the company is product quality where
customers will be satisfied if the results of their evaluation show that the products they
