We performed a comparison between Keysight 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.
"It's easier to automate and connect with multiple devices, and at the same time with laptops."
"While it depends on the field, the learning curve is usually really quick."
"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."
"The user interface is very good, very graphical. It provides a lot of help in using and operating it."
"I use the serial decoder for the serial interfaces, which helps me debug my product quickly."
"It does everything that I need it to with the PLTS software and the network analyzer software."
"The user interface is nice. It describes the output well, so it's easy to use."
"The Keysight Ecal feature has made it very easy for me to do calibrations."
"Time domain measurement is very accurate compared to other devices."
"The most valuable features are everything they do. We primarily use the O-scopes and they help us figure out what's going wrong with our scope out signals."
"Tektronix is robust and reliable. It's a hammer-resistant machine, a fact which is most important on our manufacturing floor."
"The user interface is good, not very complicated. It is very intuitive."
"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 Tektronix user interface is like an Apple iPhone, but for oscilloscopes. It is simple to use."
"The most valuable features are its ease of use, user interface, and PAM-4. The user interface is good and easy to use."
"Valuable features include that it's multi-channel... and has bandwidth filtering. The user interface is good."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"The integration between different software and hardware panels could be improved. In the software, it's not as strong as the other solutions."
"I would like more accuracy, particularly for multiport measurements."
"Every component has a manufacturing tolerance. I hope Keysight software can help with the tolerance loss in manufacturing variance, which can be ten percent or five percent. In the real world, we cannot fire a really perfect test with very smooth impedance. I would like to see Keysight provide a solution to solve the issue of loss of manufacturing variance."
"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 are other devices out there which are more capable, offering more features, with as good quality tech support."
"I know you can get the Bit Masks but it's generally really expensive to get the eye diagrams and Bit Masks with it. I wish they were included or cheaper."
"We are looking for an Intel platform with the newest chipset."
"I wish we could turn off the automatic measurement feature of the oscilloscope, for teaching purposes."
"They need to add more memory to this machine."
"I am not utilizing the full bandwidth of this product."
"There was a learning curve, which was a little tricky at times. Getting used to the GUI took time because we had to learn the different features."
"There is room for improvement when it comes to the screen size. I don't really have a lot of complaints but screen size would be the biggest thing."
