NetAlly EtherScope nXG users highlight battery life, need for higher-speed testing, and better classification of traffic. Integration into automated environments and detailed 802.11ax data are desirable. Users express issues with the 5 GHz radio, remote reset capabilities, and test result inconsistencies. The user interface is not intuitive, and training is extensive. They call for enhancements in test profile management, topology mapping, and AirMapper usability. Adding spectrum analysis and linking with AirWave are also suggested.
- "NetAlly doesn't have a spectrum analyzer. I have to use other tools to view the spectrum, and this is a problem."
- "The real negative to the product is the horrible battery life."
- "I use the NetAlly site and one of the things I don't like about the topology map, something I wish I could fix, is that the map kind of jiggles if you don't adjust any of the settings."
