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

"It gives you the capability to increase the Tap levels and voltage strength more than what you have in your signal."

"The most valuable feature is its frequency range."

"The Pulse Pattern Generator (PPG) and Error Detector are co-located, which makes it easier to use because I can just probe it directly on the PCB."

"It supports the PAM-4 encoding scheme. We use that to do our PAM-4 receiver validation."

"The user interface is easy, simple, and practical."

"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 user interface is simple and straightforward, so I can easily measure frequency, time, and other complex measurements."

"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."

"Because they're such a big industry standard name, their products are standardized across many customers, which is why people own these products."

"The user interface is very good, very graphical. It provides a lot of help in using and operating it."

"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."

"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's a one-stop solution. It does everything we need. The combined functionality is the biggest benefit."

"It does everything that I need it to with the PLTS software and the network analyzer software."

Cons

"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 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."

"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 product's antennas and radar applications need improvement."

"I would like a better GUI with navigation. This should make it easier to compare to competitors, like Textronix or Keysight."

"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."

"The technical support is okay, but sometimes they are on a different page than us. If it is something wrong with the scope, they are okay. However, 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."

"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."

"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 also like to see a more detailed change-notice from version to version, what changed. If they had a more detailed description of what is changing and the reason for it, rather than just releasing, that would be good for us so we know whether or not to upgrade."

"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."

"We tried to connect multiple computers with a KVM switch but we could not do that using Keysight VNA. Keysight VNA comes with the PC inside it. We have other equipment as well, and we tried to combine it so that we had one monitor to control everything. With Keysight we could not do it. That's something of an inconvenience."

"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."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

"It is expensive, but I guess that is why it works."

"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."

"Pricing is always expensive. It would be better if they lowered the price."

"I think everyone gets a demo before purchasing."

"The pricing is costly."

"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."

"The pricing is very expensive."

"Pricing always is very expensive. There's no free lunch."

"They're not cheap."

"The pricing is very expensive, but with leading technology, nothing is cheap."

"Keysight is on the high side. If they could make the price lower without sacrificing the quality that would be great."

"It's expensive, but the quality matters."
