Hi guys,
I tried out a previous version of BenchVue shortly after I bought my 34465A meter.
As I know you appreciate, test equipment needs to be boringly dependable and reliable. Your instruments generally are, which is why I've more-or-less standardised on them in my lab. They generally work really well.
That's why I was disappointed with the stability of BenchVue. The install process didn't go smoothly, and the software itself just wasn't stable enough in use. I'd love to give you more details, but alas I uninstalled the software soon after deciding I was better off without it.
Has reliability, stability and ease-of-use been a high development priority in this release? Or has it been primarily about adding features?
Much as I hate to say it, I was also disappointed to see silly limitations in the free version, like the limit on data logging time. I've spent a lot of money on HP / Agilent / Keysight equipment, and finding myself being asked to pay even more just to remove artificial limitations on a tool which would help them all work together is irksome. Please reconsider this business decision.
Andy.
