The technical support ecosystem is what really makes it good.
Because they're such a big industry standard name, their products are standardized across many customers, which is why people own these products. The customer support is very good. If you need an application to do any measurement, you can easily get a hold of people to help you with it. This is a whole ecosystem. The user interface is top-notch in the industry.

It has helped me to improve my design on PCIe PETracers, but I need more technical details on what each packet represents
We are using it for debugging PCIe PETracers. We are using it to measure PCI Express signals. We are using it to support connect devices in enterprise products Checking how many errors were on the channel by using the protocol analyzer has helped me to improve my design on PCIe PETracers. The…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It breaks down all the parameters that we need to look at."
"It's a very nice product. Whatever feature that I was looking for, it was within my budget."
"It's accurate, fast, has high bandwidth, and the PLTS is pretty convenient."
"Its versatility and accuracy are the most valuable features."
"I use the serial decoder for the serial interfaces, which helps me debug my product quickly."
"The user interface is simple and straightforward, so I can easily measure frequency, time, and other complex measurements."
"Their software and hardware are integrated, so we don't have to spend a lot of time processing the data."
"It improves the functionality of our products and the products that I design, and I use it for characterization every day, and it directly helps."
"We heavily use it to validate the design assumption. In many cases, it was able to point out things that were not available to us in simulation."
"The most valuable feature is the Protocol Analyzer for protocol testing, and the user interface is good, neat, intuitive, and easy to use."
"We are able to capture the transient domain accurately."
"By pre-qualifying test devices with the tool, we're able to go back and make design changes before committing to silicon."
"Checking how many errors were on the channel by using the protocol analyzer has helped me to improve my design on PCIe PETracers."
"We are able to capture the transient domain accurately. There are some technical features where you can do FFT."
"I would totally recommend this product."
"The most valuable feature is the embedded protocol analysis."
 

Cons

"I would like to see the possibility of interacting with the software, new features for software post-processing. For example, once you're done measuring, it would be nice to be able to generate some data starting from the measurement data."
"Some of the models have only two ports. If they had a four-port, it would be much better."
"The room for improvement is the cost. It's always too expensive."
"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."
"If the simulation runs for a long time, it will suddenly crash."
"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."
"We are using this product to support connected devices for IoT development, but we need more automation."
"I would like them to build in more high-speed functions, such as FEC or PCIe, built into the array. PERT to be built-in for more specific product call. These would make our lives much easier."
"I would like more technical details on what each packet represents and more information on the flow."
"I would like them to add more post processing capabilities (e.g., with new product specifications)."
"The interconnect methods to the device are a little limited right now. I'd like to see other ways of being able to connect to the device."
"I would like them to be current with the latest standards. So, as soon as a new standard comes in, ensure that it gets rolled into the existing software."
"The interconnect methods to the device are a little limited right now. I'd like to see other ways of being able to connect to the device."
"Since we do a lot of post processing when we download our waveforms to our computers, we need more post processing capabilities."
"I would like them to be current with the latest standards. So, as soon as a new standard comes in, ensure that it gets rolled into the existing software."
"They could always work on the software stability of the products, particularly now that everything has switched over to a Windows-based interface."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is very expensive, but with leading technology, nothing is cheap."
"While I don't have transparency on the pricing, it works within my budget."
"The pricing is good for what they offer."
"They're not cheap."
"Pricing always is very expensive. There's no free lunch."
"Pricing can be improved a bit. They try to make the pricing competitive but I think there are times that the competitors have good pricing."
"The major factor influencing the decision-makers is the price."
"It's expensive, but the quality matters."
"The bandwidth is pretty expensive on these instruments, so we typically use it all."
"I would like them to include a lot of the add-on options as part of the package. Typically, we start in at a price, and by the time we add up all the options that we need which are available, we are at double or triple the original price."
"They're fairly competitive for pricing across the industry."
