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."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."
"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."
"We haven't need technical support yet because all documentation is well done and there."
"The integrated lateral view makes it easier to develop your test systems and test software flow."
"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."
"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 absolutely great. It creates an easy working environment because it has well-integrated hardware and software. So, it is easy to use."
"Valuable features include that it's multi-channel... and has bandwidth filtering. The user interface is good."
"The sensitivity of the trigger and the reliability are the most valuable features."
"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."
"The user interface is good."
"Being able to monitor data from a CAN bus while the vehicle is running will cut down a lot of the feedback for the design mode."
"The Tektronix user interface is like an Apple iPhone, but for oscilloscopes. It is simple to use."
"B-scan is its most valuable feature."
"There is a learning curve. It might take a year if you're not well-versed with it."
"There is a learning curve. It takes one to two months to get acclimated to the tool."
"I would like to see them increase the productivity and auxiliary functions."
"I would like more speed and a reduction in size."
"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 have more RF. They're going that way, but still there is some work that they have to do."
"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."
"The software has room for improvement."
"I would like to see more integration into machine learning because that's what we try to apply it to."
"There are other devices out there which are more capable, offering more features, with as good quality tech support."
"We are looking for an Intel platform with the newest chipset."
"They need to add more memory to this machine."
"It needs one button and every time you push it, you get whatever you need."
"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 use microservices, but you cannot really probe it, since the technology is not really there."
"I am not utilizing the full bandwidth of this product."
