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 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."
"The features are pretty much the same as an expensive competitor, but the price is better."
"We can extract signal loss, skew, DKDF... and the tool is very flexible."
"The jitter function included into the system has helped me in terms of improving the capabilities of our product."
"I have recommended this product before because I think we received the best product for the money that we paid."
"If your intent is to experiment with your signal to see if some boosting helps or your silicon doesn't have a lot of Tap features, then this is a good product to start with."
"It gives you the capability to increase the Tap levels and voltage strength more than what you have in your signal."
"It's easier to automate and connect with multiple devices, and at the same time with laptops."
"Keysight is number one and top of the line."
"The Keysight Ecal feature has made it very easy for me to do calibrations."
"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."
"The user interface is very good, very graphical. It provides a lot of help in using and operating it."
"By using the Keysight network analyzer, we get pretty reliable results."
"I use the serial decoder for the serial interfaces, which helps me debug my product quickly."
"Because they're such a big industry standard name, their products are standardized across many customers, which is why people own these products."
 

Cons

"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."
"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."
"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."
"The user interface is a bit complicated because they have so many tabs. If they could simplify it, this would be helpful and appreciated."
"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."
"I would like to see them improve the software. The new version can be improved. It's not quite stable. It restarts a lot."
"I would like to see them improve the software. The new version can be improved; it's not quite stable and restarts a lot."
"I would like to see the possibility of interacting with the software, new features for software post-processing."
"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."
"The technical support is okay, but sometimes they are on a different page than us. If something technical goes wrong, like the calibration, it is hard to get the information that we need because it is hard to share everything and explain all the measurements in real-time."
"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."
"While the user interface is good with respect to instrumentation, but with respect to documentation, I do not like it. Its documentation is slightly bad."
"I would like more accuracy, particularly for multiport measurements."
"There is a learning curve, depends on the client equipment that I am working with."
"We are using this product to support connected devices for IoT development, but we need more automation."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Price-wise, it is much cheaper than its competitors."
"The first version of the product is always expensive, then once there is competition, it will be cheaper."
"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."
"I think everyone gets a demo before purchasing."
"Pricing is always expensive. It would be better if they lowered the price."
"The pricing is costly."
"It is expensive, but I guess that is why it works."
"The price is affordable for us, but for smaller companies, probably not."
"Keysight is on the high side. If they could make the price lower without sacrificing the quality that would be great."
"It's very expensive because this type of equipment is not so common. For a company buying it, this is a big investment."
"We are looking at $600,000 and it's obviously expensive, but compared to others, everybody is in the same ballpark."
"While I don't have transparency on the pricing, it works within my budget."
"It's very expensive."
"The pricing is very expensive, but with leading technology, nothing is cheap."
"The pricing is very expensive."
