DAZN, the sports streaming service powered by Perform Group, has doubled its Italian customer base since launching Aug. 18, despite a myriad of streaming problems.

The service, which recently signed soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo as a brand ambassador, said that the number of registered users has more than doubled since the first weekend of the Serie A.

The announcement, which was initially reported by SportsPro Media, comes despite a number of complaints that have arisen in recent weeks about the quality of its streaming service there, including slow load times and sudden interruptions.
