You raise many valid points.. However when I compare SONM to most ICOs out there. They have shown to be a lot more competent than most. Delivering before a deadline is just an example of why I still give SONM a benefit of a doubt. So far they maybe have not been perfect, but in my opinion it could be a lot worse.
The fact that none of SONM's official partnerships are worth talking about cannot be contributed to only bad marketing and sales. We are still in a period where the average joes have heard about crypto but are extremely skeptical. So even if you go to a company with an offer that your service is many times cheaper. The only thing the no coiners brain will hear is crypto = bubble, crypto = scam etc.
The point I am trying to make is that you are correct we are 1.5 years after ICO and it is not as booming as we hoped. But do take into account that crypto as whole does not have a mature image towards the people outside of crypto. It does not matter how much money SONM puts into marketing and sales, one company cannot change the whole stigma around crypto. It has to be a collective effort.

This person makes a very good point, SNM have an operational system that works well and they are constantly delivering on their deadlines. With more adoption this project could be huge.
