We performed a comparison between Keysight Oscilloscopes and Rohde & Schwarz Oscilloscopes based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Siglent, Tektronix, Keysight Technologies and others in Oscilloscopes."The user interface is simple and straightforward, so I can easily measure frequency, time, and other complex measurements."
"The user interface is nice. It describes the output well, so it's easy to use."
"It's easier to automate and connect with multiple devices, and at the same time with laptops."
"The user interface has never been better. They improved it a few years ago with a more modern oscilloscope interface and it's easier to use, even for more junior people in our lab."
"It's accurate, fast, has high bandwidth, and the PLTS is pretty convenient."
"It can go up to a very high frequency, up to 120 gigahertz. And the user interface is really good. It's really easy to navigate."
"It has the highest bandwidth and resolution on the market."
"We rely on the data and we make our design calls, risk-assessment, all based on the measurements that we take with the Keysight equipment."
"It has a very low noise floor."
"The product is quite reliable and straightforward to use. Typically, there are no households that we have to set up."
"The ability to have both the time domain and frequency domain, where the frequency domain is a very broad spectral plot, is extremely valuable."
"I have been able to do quality measurements that I have been unable to achieve with the equipment from some other vendors."
"The instrument has a wide bandwidth. You can sweep across a wide range of frequencies."
"The most valuable features are the accuracy and repeatability."
"It is easy to connect with, accurate, reliable, and hardly fails."
"The user interface is pretty good. Right now, it is more than what we expected. It's easy and fast to use."
"The integration between different software and hardware panels could be improved. In the software, it's not as strong as the other solutions."
"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."
"There is room for improvement in the upgradeability of the products. When we buy a platform, we would like that platform to survive two or three generations, because it is very expensive. If they could provide a more modular type of design, so if we want to upgrade one functionality then we could upgrade that module, rather than all the equipment, that would be helpful. That modularity is something we would like to see."
"I would like to see the possibility of interacting with the software, new features for software post-processing. For example, once you're done measuring, it would be nice to be able to generate some data starting from the measurement data."
"I would like more accuracy, particularly for multiport measurements."
"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."
"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."
"Everybody is looking for more automation support, so that if they can incorporate more protocols. It makes it easier."
"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."
"The size of the unit is too big, too heavy. It has to be made more portable and smaller."
"They could use an RDA interface."
"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."
"In the next release, I would like to see report generation. It would make it a lot easier to refer back to and, when doing final testing, seeing what went on during the pre-test would help."
"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."
"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."
"Sometimes, it's difficult to find menus on the user interface."
