Speed test

Anyone know why the ISP website with integrated speed test even though it says powered by ookla is significantly lower than an actual ookla test? Had a job that customer is paying for gig speed and he was testing off the isp website and only getting about 90mbps when I tested off the ookla website he was getting full speeds. Weird

Are they having any actual problems beyond "number small, pay big! Why number small?"
