The Pulse Pattern Generator and Error Detector are co-located, making it easier to use. However, I would like a better GUI.
Take a look and do some demos. It will help you decide whether to go with this equipment or not. It took us about a week to become acclimated to the solution. We are not using this product to support connected devices, e.g., IoT development, nor are we planning to going forward.

The technical support ecosystem is what really makes it good.
Because they're such a big industry standard name, their products are standardized across many customers, which is why people own these products. The customer support is very good. If you need an application to do any measurement, you can easily get a hold of people to help you with it. This is a whole ecosystem. The user interface is top-notch in the industry.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The jitter function included into the system has helped me in terms of improving the capabilities of our product."
"We can extract signal loss, skew, DKDF... and the tool is very flexible."
"The features are pretty much the same as an expensive competitor, but the price is better."
"I have recommended this product before because I think we received the best product for the money that we paid."
"It supports the PAM-4 encoding scheme, and we use that to do our PAM-4 receiver validation, and it's also quick and easy to use."
"The information that I can get with the VNA is useful for me to select materials, like copper, and all the information that it can provide is really useful, due to the processing of the data."
"The most valuable feature is its frequency range."
"It gives you the capability to increase the Tap levels and voltage strength more than what you have in your signal."
"It has the highest bandwidth and resolution on the market."
"The Keysight Ecal feature has made it very easy for me to do calibrations."
"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."
"I use the serial decoder for the serial interfaces, which helps me debug my product quickly."
"The customer support is very good. If you need an application to do any measurement, you can easily get a hold of people to help you with it. This is a whole ecosystem."
"It's a very nice product. Whatever feature that I was looking for, it was within my budget."
"This is a very good product to do your basic signal integrity tests and check your signals in the systems."
"We have often needed technical support often, they were always ready to help us and have been very useful, and if you need help, there is always someone who will help you."
 

Cons

"The user interface is somewhat difficult when it comes to updates, so this is something that they need to improve. I would like a better GUI with navigation."
"Sometimes, the forms keep changing because of new product technology. If they could reduce the amount of change in the form, this would be good."
"The user interface is a bit complicated because they have so many tabs. If they could simplify it, this would be helpful and appreciated."
"Right now, it's a minimal tool. They could make it more dynamic by adding dynamic features, which could help us with doing effective analysis."
"I would like a better GUI with navigation. This should make it easier to compare to competitors, like Textronix or Keysight."
"I would like to see them improve the software. The new version can be improved. It's not quite stable. It restarts a lot."
"The product's antennas and radar applications need improvement."
"I would like the frequency range to be extended because of the speed. Electronics are moving forward to higher speeds, so it's better to have higher frequencies."
"We are using this product to support connected devices for IoT development, but we need more automation."
"I have found it to be very unreliable. It breaks down a lot."
"There is a learning curve depends on the client that I am working with. E.g., if I'm working with a client, and they have a test and measurement equipment company, when I go to another company, the new company may not be using the same model."
"Some of the models have only two ports. It takes much longer to use a two-port. If they had a four-port, it would be much better."
"Sometimes, it's quite hard to get the technical support to come onsite. If we run into a hardware, measurement, or software issue, we may have to wait a long time for them to come."
"There is a learning curve, depends on the client equipment that I am working with."
"The room for improvement is the cost. It's always too expensive."
"They have some software applications but their GUI is not the best. The user interface is clunky at times."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I think everyone gets a demo before purchasing."
"The first version of the product is always expensive, then once there is competition, it will be cheaper."
"Pricing is always expensive. It would be better if they lowered the price."
"The pricing is costly."
"It's very expensive equipment and cannot be upgraded after five years. If you buy equipment today, in five years, it won't be upgradeable. You have to upgrade it within the first five years that you buy it."
"Price-wise, it is much cheaper than its competitors."
"It is expensive, but I guess that is why it works."
"It's very expensive."
"The price is affordable for us, but for smaller companies, probably not."
"It would be good if it were a little bit cheaper, of course."
"While I don't have transparency on the pricing, it works within my budget."
"The pricing is good for what they offer."
"It's very expensive because this type of equipment is not so common. For a company buying it, this is a big investment."
"The pricing is on the high side."
"They're not cheap."
