We performed a comparison between Keysight Oscilloscopes and Rohde & Schwarz 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 accurate, fast, has high bandwidth, and the PLTS is pretty convenient."
"It breaks down all the parameters that we need to look at."
"The user interface is nice. It describes the output well, so it's easy to use."
"Its versatility and accuracy are the most valuable features."
"While it depends on the field, the learning curve is usually really quick."
"Before silicon came back, our customers' performance was affected. Using these tools, we are able to deliver performance to our customers."
"The user interface is simple and straightforward, so I can easily measure frequency, time, and other complex measurements."
"It's a one-stop solution. It does everything we need. The combined functionality is the biggest benefit."
"I have been able to do quality measurements that I have been unable to achieve with the equipment from some other vendors."
"Most of the features offered are free, like serial data analyzers or jitter measurements."
"The most valuable features are the accuracy and repeatability."
"The instrument has a wide bandwidth. You can sweep across a wide range of frequencies."
"The noise floor for reference clocks is pretty low, so this instrument is able to measure it where others cannot."
"The user interface is pretty good. Right now, it is more than what we expected. It's easy and fast to use."
"It is a more efficient, easier way to do measurements."
"The noise sensitivity: It has a low noise floor."
"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."
"I would like more customized functions, so we can do the programming and definitions ourselves. There is an automation flow to capture this signal, and we would like to do this ourselves."
"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."
"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 user interface can be buggy at times. But I'm an engineer, I figure out how to get around them pretty easily so that's not that much of a concern."
"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."
"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."
"There is room for improvement with some of the features of the scope. I would like them to make it a bit more simplistic... For example, if I want to look at what the total jitter is, they should make it simpler to find that, with different tabs."
"There was a learning curve. Their use interface and the way that their products work are not intuitive to somebody who switches from other vendors."
"Sometimes, it's difficult to find menus on the user interface."
"It would be good if they would try to automate most things because it has more pressing buttons and repetitive work. If there were automation scripts that they could provide, that would improve things."
"We would like to have autotracking and auto error tracking for regression testing. We would like to know what error happened, when it happened, and during what scenario (such as setup), because right now we have to manually look at when it happened."
"The user interface could be improved, e.g., the documentation on the menus. I have to open a separate document to figure out the functionality sometimes."
"They could use an RDA interface."
"The size of the unit is too big, too heavy. It has to be made more portable and smaller."
"I'm against the Windows-based tools. Now everybody is running scopes, VNAs, and all their tools based on Windows. I don't want to see that in the future."
