We performed a comparison between National Instruments (NI) 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."It makes programming simpler."
"Because their view is a graphical user interface (GUI), it's very easy to program the tool."
"The user interface is absolutely great. It creates an easy working environment because it has well-integrated hardware and software. So, it is easy to use."
"It helps us to save on our investment with a lot of the stuff that we buy, as we can find defects quickly."
"The integrated lateral view makes it easier to develop your test systems and test software flow."
"Most of the features are on the screen itself. The naming convention makes it very easy to understand what is needed."
"The learning curve was really fast, which was also the reason for saving a lot on the budget."
"It took us less than a week to get integrated into the solution, which is very fast."
"The most valuable feature is the automation component in setting up some of these measurements."
"When I was looking for a scope for that lab, that five subdivisions per division was important."
"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."
"It takes 35 to 45 minutes to get acclimated to the solution."
"The Tektronix user interface is like an Apple iPhone, but for oscilloscopes. It is simple to use."
"It has a good user interface. It's easy to use, easy to read. It's intuitive."
"The Ipath and measurements are fantastic and simple to implement."
"It is easy to handle, so everyone likes to use it."
"National Instruments needs to be focusing on its 5G RF applications. They are aware of this, and that's where most of their R&D is going."
"I would like to see them increase the productivity and auxiliary functions."
"It took a good year until I felt proficient using the product, as It is a complex program. Their newest version has a less steep learning curve, but back closer to 15 years ago, it was a lot less user-friendly."
"I would like to have more RF. They're going that way, but still there is some work that they have to do."
"There is a learning curve. It takes one to two months to get acclimated to the tool."
"I would like to see more of a tasking user base and documentation inside the instrument itself, rather than having to go online for it."
"I would like more speed and a reduction in size."
"The software has room for improvement."
"We are looking for an Intel platform with the newest chipset."
"The power of the computer inside is weak. Sometimes I send a lot of data and I'll feel the lag... I would like to see them improve the processing power."
"I would like to see more integration into machine learning because that's what we try to apply it to."
"I would like if they could have more customer support engagement."
"There is room for improvement when it comes to the screen size. I don't really have a lot of complaints but screen size would be the biggest thing."
"We would like more features for the CAN bus decoding, such as importing DDC files, which allows us to take the raw data and convert it into engineering units."
"It needs one button and every time you push it, you get whatever you need."
"I know you can get the Bit Masks but it's generally really expensive to get the eye diagrams and Bit Masks with it. I wish they were included or cheaper."
