We performed a comparison between Rohde & Schwarz Oscilloscopes and Tektronix Oscilloscopes based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Siglent, Tektronix, Keysight Technologies and others in Oscilloscopes."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."
"Most of the features offered are free, like serial data analyzers or jitter measurements."
"The instrument has a wide bandwidth. You can sweep across a wide range of frequencies."
"The ability to have both the time domain and frequency domain, where the frequency domain is a very broad spectral plot, is extremely valuable."
"The most valuable features are its wide bandwidth and 8 ports."
"The characterization of RF channels was helpful... The user interface was very simple to operate and there were a lot of tutorials."
"The noise sensitivity: It has a low noise floor."
"The most valuable feature is the automation component in setting up some of these measurements."
"It takes 35 to 45 minutes to get acclimated to the solution."
"We have multiple systems for manufacturing tests, and it's critical for our support. The support increases our productivity."
"Tektronix is robust and reliable. It's a hammer-resistant machine, a fact which is most important on our manufacturing floor."
"B-scan is its most valuable feature."
"This solution provides high confidence in the data being presented in the measurement to inform a design decision going forward."
"Valuable features include that it's multi-channel... and has bandwidth filtering. The user interface is good."
"The Tektronix user interface is like an Apple iPhone, but for oscilloscopes. It is simple to use."
"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."
"The depth the the user GUI could be improved. It is a bit deep for new users. During the first two weeks we spent a lot of time finding the 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."
"They could use an RDA interface."
"The Rohde & Schwarz user interface is very oriented towards drop and drag functions on the screen. Some of those are just not obvious how to use. You have to have somebody get you over the hump."
"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."
"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."
"The size of the unit is too big, too heavy. It has to be made more portable and smaller."
"There is room for improvement when it comes to the screen size. I don't really have a lot of complaints but screen size would be the biggest thing."
"They need to add more memory to this machine."
"I use microservices, but you cannot really probe it, since the technology is not really there."
"On the source side, their AWGs don't have enough bandwidth. They need to increase the bandwidth of their AWGs, meaning they have to have a faster sample rate."
"The ruggedness could be improved."
"I would like to see more integration into machine learning because that's what we try to apply it to."
"We are looking for an Intel platform with the newest chipset."
"We would like more features for the CAN bus decoding, such as importing DDC files, which allows us to take the raw data and convert it into engineering units."
