I like the capabilities for scanning the spectrums in portions instead of filling the whole screen
Wireless scanning, mapping, and troubleshooting. Spectrum XT continues to help with interference issues in the factory environment. Having multiple systems factory/IR/RF/Microwave and LMR is challenging to keep everything working together I've been able to diagnose trouble areas in the factory…

A vast solution with user-friendly features and reasonable pricing
It is very scalable. You can easily increase the payers in the license activation. If you have any issues, the IxChariot host system can be rebooted. We currently have about 100 setups in our lab. Out of those 100 setups, around 90 are being used. So overall, 90% of the setups use a minimum of 10 paces where we test the range versus rate. In addition, we are building up several test bits, which will increase the usage. No maintenance is required for this solution unless the host system has a problem. Once IxChariot is installed, it automatically updates if you set it to auto-update.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I can determine precise placement of APs to satisfy customers’ needs for data, voice, or location."
"I think two of the products that we use in the suite are really, really, really solid."
"If you're having multiple issues, I'd recommend this to people, and in the long run, it's worth the cost not having to wait for a vendor to make it out during an outage or intermittent time of issues."
"Active testing of network infrastructure with a central server and an easy-to-use GUI, automatic test endpoint registration, and predefined scenarios for real-world traffic including many VoIP types makes this solution very powerful for our environment."
"Implementing IxChariot is very easy and user-friendly."
 

Cons

"Connections from the antenna to the main unit are not efficient to connect and disconnect. Also, not thought out for placement of the cable between the unit and antenna to not catch the things disconnecting it during use."
"Not being able to accurately predict interference and then engineer or react accordingly does cost us money."
"On the version I use, there are some bugs that are probably resolved in the latest version."
"The graphical user interface needs to be improved."
"Automatization of multiple test scenarios is now only possible from the API."
