Principal at a tech services company with 1-10 employees
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.

Digital Design Engineer at a aerospace/defense firm with 5,001-10,000 employees
Maintenance is important with this type of product, and this product's battery life is very good
Adapting to the new products is taking some time, but this is normal procedure. The scopes should be more powerful for our tests. This is extremely important for our products. We need to reach the probing point in our products, and this is extremely hard for us sometimes. The user interface of the scopes could be simpler. Windows-based scopes could also be smaller.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I use the serial decoder for the serial interfaces, which helps me debug my product quickly."
"The user interface is very good, very graphical. It provides a lot of help in using and operating it."
"Its 4 port has true differential with quite a few de-embedding features. It goes up to 40 GHz with high performance."
"We rely on the data and we make our design calls, risk-assessment, all based on the measurements that we take with the Keysight equipment."
"The Keysight Ecal feature has made it very easy for me to do calibrations."
"Because they're such a big industry standard name, their products are standardized across many customers, which is why people own these products."
"The user interface is nice. It describes the output well, so it's easy to use."
"It breaks down all the parameters that we need to look at."
"Using the user interface is pretty easy to use. Everybody can use it in engineering area."
"Maintenance is important with this type of product, and this product's battery life is very good."
 

Cons

"We tried to connect multiple computers with a KVM switch but we could not do that using Keysight VNA. Keysight VNA comes with the PC inside it. We have other equipment as well, and we tried to combine it so that we had one monitor to control everything. With Keysight we could not do it. That's something of an inconvenience."
"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."
"Every component has a manufacturing tolerance. I hope Keysight software can help with the tolerance loss in manufacturing variance, which can be ten percent or five percent. In the real world, we cannot fire a really perfect test with very smooth impedance. I would like to see Keysight provide a solution to solve the issue of loss of manufacturing variance."
"Their GUI is not the best. They need to improve on that. I think their software team needs to put in a little bit more work on how they are presenting the application on the scope."
"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."
"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 also like to see a more detailed change-notice from version to version, what changed. If they had a more detailed description of what is changing and the reason for it, rather than just releasing, that would be good for us so we know whether or not to upgrade."
"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."
"The scopes should be more powerful for our tests. This is extremely important for our products. We need to reach the probing point in our products, and this is extremely hard for us sometimes."
"The customer relationship should be more advanced/developed. Documents on the website should be more accessible and easily understandable."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is affordable for us, but for smaller companies, probably not."
"It's very expensive because this type of equipment is not so common. For a company buying it, this is a big investment."
"It's expensive, but the quality matters."
"The pricing is good for what they offer."
"The pricing is always high."
"They're not cheap."
"It's very expensive."
"The pricing is very expensive."
