What Makes M1 OT™ Different?
We could give you 100 answers; let's start with just three:
-
M1 supports
every
scope manufacturer - Tek, Agilent, LeCroy, Yokogawa
-
M1 supports everything that ScopeCo software does at the
analysis level, and more, but it also delivers rich value propositions "above the box" with capabilities like:
collaboration,
technology replacement,
automation,
etc.
-
M1 does not employ a "sum of products" pricing model a la ScopeCo. Instead of paying $20k-$50k per scope, as you can easily do with ScopeCo software, M1 will always be between $1k-$8k.
We encourage you to ask ScopeCo to defend their software. To ensure that conversation is more substance than
fluff, here are some questions you can bring up during it.
You will also have questions to ask yourself about what you need in this kind of a product.
Here are some questions to guide you on that.
About Mission/Functional Superiority
You need the best tools to win. If you had to defend your life against a murderous marauding horde trying to take your stuff, and you had the following as your choices, it might make sense to break away from the guys trying to sell you sharper spears and go with something that works a little better.
When it comes to choosing the tools you need to defend or extend your product space, the sharper-spear mentality is one of the first things you have to discard. Especially when the spear costs more. M1 is the opposite of a sharp stick... it's leagues ahead of the competition. An example of how we compare to the competition (Tektronix in this case) is shown below using a portfolio comparison tool we call Product Charts.

What $995 - $7,995 buys you at ASA

Financial Savings
Pay for one tool for one cost. M1 OT is NOT a constellation of narrow, expensive programs that only support one scope type, and never get updated. You can easily save 10's of thousands on each new mid/high-end scope purchase with M1... and you end up with MUCH more capability.
M1 Pays for itself before you take it out of the box by saving you at least what it cost you in diff probes. If you can possibly probe differential pairs with single-ended probes, M1's built-in True Differential Thresholding will preserve data you WISH you had... like voltage variation vs time at the cross-over point.
