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

"The user interface is nice. It describes the output well, so it's easy to use."
"This is a very good product to do your basic signal integrity tests and check your signals in the systems."
"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."
"It's very convenient because once we set up everything, we just queue our test plan and then are able to do whatever we want: embed with the key size and the PLOTS auto fix removal."
"It's a very nice product. Whatever feature that I was looking for, it was within my budget."
"When it comes to grabbing precise technical data, having an ecosystem of logging it correctly and working with the diagnostics, they are probably the industry leaders in the field."
"It does everything that I need it to with the PLTS software and the network analyzer software."
"While it depends on the field, the learning curve is usually really quick."
"We heavily use it to validate the design assumption, and 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."
"Checking how many errors were on the channel by using the protocol analyzer has helped me to improve my design on PCIe PETracers."
"By pre-qualifying test devices with the tool, we're able to go back and make design changes before committing to silicon."
"I would totally recommend this product."
"It has a nice high-resolution screen. It is easy to set up the scope triggers, has a lot of scope trigger options for capturing waveforms, and seamlessly goes into the spectrum analysis mode."
"We are able to capture the transient domain accurately. There are some technical features where you can do FFT."
"The most valuable feature is the embedded protocol analysis."
 

Cons

"The user interface is not that good. It's not very intuitive. It's functional, but it's not designed for ease of operation. It's designed for functionality."
"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."
"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."
"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 room for improvement is the cost. It's always too expensive."
"I would like to see better post-processing data utility tools like a de-embedding."
"It needs more flexible probing solutions, especially for the complex ICs."
"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 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."
"They could always work on the software stability of the products, particularly now that everything has switched over to a Windows-based interface. It creates a lot of crashes and bugs, which typically is a problem among all instruments."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Keysight is on the high side. If they could make the price lower without sacrificing the quality that would be great."
"While I don't have transparency on the pricing, it works within my budget."
"The major factor influencing the decision-makers is the price."
"The cost is always a struggle. We always wish that we could do more for less."
"It would be good if it were a little bit cheaper, of course."
"It's very expensive."
"It's very expensive because this type of equipment is not so common. For a company buying it, this is a big investment."
"The pricing is always high."
"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."
