We performed a comparison between Keysight Oscilloscopes and National Instruments (NI) Oscilloscopes based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Siglent, Tektronix, Keysight Technologies and others in Oscilloscopes."While it depends on the field, the learning curve is usually really quick."
"The technical support is good, and it has very strong customer support. They sent an engineer to us who gave us some training and tutorials."
"It does everything that I need it to with the PLTS software and the network analyzer software."
"Its versatility and accuracy are the most valuable features."
"I use the serial decoder for the serial interfaces, which helps me debug my product quickly."
"It has the highest bandwidth and resolution on the market."
"It's accurate, fast, has high bandwidth, and the PLTS is pretty convenient."
"The user interface is nice. It describes the output well, so it's easy to use."
"It makes programming simpler."
"It saves me a lot of time. You can click a button and walk away, basically doing a week's worth of work in 20 minutes, it's a pretty good time saver."
"The integrated lateral view makes it easier to develop your test systems and test software flow."
"The learning curve was really fast, which was also the reason for saving a lot on the budget."
"It helps us to save on our investment with a lot of the stuff that we buy, as we can find defects quickly."
"Because their view is a graphical user interface (GUI), it's very easy to program the tool."
"I can automate a lot of testing very quickly. With just a push of a button, I can test hundreds of different scenarios without having to do all that manual testing myself."
"The user interface is very good. Their boards are reliable. We buy boards from them, they are reliable, and we don't have problems with them."
"Their GUI is not the best. They need to improve on that. I think their software team needs to put in a little bit more work on how they are presenting the application on the scope."
"There is room for improvement with some of the features of the scope. I would like them to make it a bit more simplistic... For example, if I want to look at what the total jitter is, they should make it simpler to find that, with different tabs."
"We are using this product to support connected devices for IoT development, but we need more automation."
"I would like be able to measure multi-lane simultaneously. Right now, the high-performance jitter solution measures one signal. I would like to capture many at the same time."
"Everybody is looking for more automation support, so that if they can incorporate more protocols. It makes it easier."
"I would like to see better post-processing data utility tools like a de-embedding."
"Every component has a manufacturing tolerance. I hope Keysight software can help with the tolerance loss in manufacturing variance, which can be ten percent or five percent. In the real world, we cannot fire a really perfect test with very smooth impedance. I would like to see Keysight provide a solution to solve the issue of loss of manufacturing variance."
"The user interface can be buggy at times. But I'm an engineer, I figure out how to get around them pretty easily so that's not that much of a concern."
"I would like to see them increase the productivity and auxiliary functions."
"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 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 might take a year if you're not well-versed with it."
"I would like more speed and a reduction in size."
"The software has room for improvement."
"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."
