We performed a comparison between Rohde & Schwarz Oscilloscopes and Tektronix Oscilloscopes based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Siglent, Tektronix, Keysight Technologies and others in Oscilloscopes."The product is quite reliable and straightforward to use. Typically, there are no households that we have to set up."
"The most valuable features are the accuracy and repeatability."
"The noise floor for reference clocks is pretty low, so this instrument is able to measure it where others cannot."
"The most valuable features are its wide bandwidth and 8 ports."
"The instrument has a wide bandwidth. You can sweep across a wide range of frequencies."
"I have been able to do quality measurements that I have been unable to achieve with the equipment from some other vendors."
"The characterization of RF channels was helpful... The user interface was very simple to operate and there were a lot of tutorials."
"The noise sensitivity: It has a low noise floor."
"The user interface is good."
"I trust Tektronix for its accuracy. The probes of solution fit my application. E.g., the speed of probes, the way that it is using probes with designs, and the probes' size."
"The most valuable features are its ease of use, user interface, and PAM-4. The user interface is good and easy to use."
"Valuable features include that it's multi-channel... and has bandwidth filtering. The user interface is good."
"When I was looking for a scope for that lab, that five subdivisions per division was important."
"It has digital scopes with a high bandwidth and digitized signal. It can do whatever you want with the signal. Since its user-friendly software allows you to work with the signal, which is pretty cool."
"B-scan is its most valuable feature."
"The user interface is excellent. The GUI is so self-explanatory and there are the same knobs everywhere; the design is a standard design line."
"We would like to have autotracking and auto error tracking for regression testing. We would like to know what error happened, when it happened, and during what scenario (such as setup), because right now we have to manually look at when it happened."
"There was a learning curve. Their use interface and the way that their products work are not intuitive to somebody who switches from other vendors."
"It would be good if they would try to automate most things because it has more pressing buttons and repetitive work. If there were automation scripts that they could provide, that would improve things."
"They could use an RDA interface."
"The depth the the user GUI could be improved. It is a bit deep for new users. During the first two weeks we spent a lot of time finding the tabs."
"The size of the unit is too big, too heavy. It has to be made more portable and smaller."
"The user interface could be improved, e.g., the documentation on the menus. I have to open a separate document to figure out the functionality sometimes."
"Sometimes, it's difficult to find menus on the user interface."
"There was a learning curve, which was a little tricky at times. Getting used to the GUI took time because we had to learn the different features."
"If you are dealing with time domain measurement, I strongly recommend using a vendor other than this company."
"I want the system to have a wider bandwidth because high-speed continues to move faster, so there is more bandwidth to cover."
"There are other devices out there which are more capable, offering more features, with as good quality tech support."
"I wish we could turn off the automatic measurement feature of the oscilloscope, for teaching purposes."
"I would like to see some WiFi capabilities. I would like to upgrade equipment, and if I was in the U.S., I could do that with WiFi capabilities."
"It needs one button and every time you push it, you get whatever you need."
"I would like to see an app from this company for test fixtures."
