I am looking at changing our data collectors and software to another brand. It seems that the one i have been using so long has gotten redicilous with updates and prices. So i am just seeing what alternatives are available. I was looking at National Reliability Systems. Has anyone had any dealings with their software and data collectors, it looks really good on paper.. Also any other systems suggestions anyone has experience on willbe appreciated.

Vendor answers are welcome as well

Thanks
Marshall

Here is a link to a variety of vibration meters, analyzers and data collectors. Feel free to contact me directly should you have any questions about these or competitive units:

If you need to collect a lot of data in a day or in a given time window, I would suggest getting the local rep. to let you use one for the day. You will need to get of feel of their processes and methods of collecting and processing data. You might find it some what different than what you are used to. It appears to be quality stuff and software is pretty neat.
