National Instruments (NI) Oscilloscopes Reviews

We use it to QA the hardware.

It helps us to save on our investment with a lot of the stuff that we buy, as we can find defects quickly.

• Ease of use.
• There are no setup costs.
• It has turnkey operations. Just turn on a machine, put your stuff in, and you can test right away.

We just watch the website all the time to make sure we have the most recent updates.

We do not use the full bandwidth, though we sometimes overclock the bandwidth by a little bit.

We don't need a not of technical support, as they have a website to download their software where we can refresh their software once in a while, but not that often. 

It's sort of self-running. We don't need to maintain anything on any machine, which is a nice feature.

The price is a little steep. A lot of people, like our customers, use a different machine because of the price. The price has to come down a bit so we can do other tests without paying the equipment's high costs.

Consider the cost of the capital investment before purchasing.

It does not take that long to learn. A high school graduate can learn how to operate the machine. It is not that hard.

The application space that this solution targets is mostly data centers and module servers.

We are using it to measure speed and capacity.

We are not using this product to support connected devices for IoT development nor are we planning to going forward.

We don't really utilize the user interface.

The primary use case is it is an integral board to our system.

The application space that we are using the solution to target is high-speed.

Speed and reliability.

There was no learning curve. We could use their board right away.

The user interface is very good. Their boards are reliable. We buy boards from them, they are reliable, and we don't have problems with them.

I would like more speed and a reduction in size. 

We are utilizing the full bandwidth of the product.

We are continuously checking their new products. If their new products can be integrated into our boards, then we sample them.

The technical support has been pretty good. They've been very supportive. While I have not used them recently, when I used them before they normally came back within 48 hours.

I would like more competitive pricing.

We evaluated a few vendors and did demos with them.

They are good on delivery and their boards are reliable, but their pricing is not that competitive.

We are using this product to support connect devices.
