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 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."
"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."
"The user interface is easy, simple, and practical."
"It gives you the capability to increase the Tap levels and voltage strength more than what you have in your signal."
"We can extract signal loss, skew, DKDF... and the tool is very flexible."
"The most valuable feature is its frequency range."
"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."
"This is a very good product to do your basic signal integrity tests and check your signals in the systems."
"It has the highest bandwidth and resolution on the market."
"It's a one-stop solution. It does everything we need. The combined functionality is the biggest benefit."
"It's accurate, fast, has high bandwidth, and the PLTS is pretty convenient."
"It's a very nice product. Whatever feature that I was looking for, it was within my budget."
"It's easier to automate and connect with multiple devices, and at the same time with laptops."
"By using the Keysight network analyzer, we get pretty reliable results."
"The Keysight Ecal feature has made it very easy for me to do calibrations."
 

Cons

"Pricing is always expensive. It would be better if they lowered the price."
"The product's antennas and radar applications need improvement."
"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."
"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."
"The user interface is a bit complicated because they have so many tabs. If they could simplify it, this would be helpful and appreciated."
"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 a better GUI with navigation. This should make it easier to compare to competitors, like Textronix or Keysight."
"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. It was not organized properly. The way it's organized is very difficult to understand, so it takes lot of time to search for one thing in particular."
"The user interface has a load of features that come with it, which is why it is an eight out of ten."
"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."
"If the simulation runs for a long time, it will suddenly crash. If they can debug that, the product would be 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."
"Something I'd like to see is much better documentation and some good examples. That would be very helpful for a new user to get better at using the new test equipment."
"The integration between different software and hardware panels could be improved. In the software, it's not as strong as the other solutions."
"The room for improvement is the cost. It's always too expensive."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Price-wise, it is much cheaper than its competitors."
"I think everyone gets a demo before purchasing."
"Pricing is always expensive. It would be better if they lowered the price."
"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."
"The pricing is costly."
"It is expensive, but I guess that is why it works."
"The first version of the product is always expensive, then once there is competition, it will be cheaper."
"The pricing is very expensive."
"It would be good if it were a little bit cheaper, of course."
"It's very expensive because this type of equipment is not so common. For a company buying it, this is a big investment."
"The cost is always a struggle. We always wish that we could do more for less."
"The pricing is very expensive, but with leading technology, nothing is cheap."
"Pricing always is very expensive. There's no free lunch."
"The pricing is good for what they offer."
"The major factor influencing the decision-makers is the price."
