VisiWave Pro or VisiWave SO?

We are often asked what is the difference between the Pro version and the SO version and which version is right for me.

The only difference between the Pro version and the Software Only ("SO") version is that the Pro version comes with the navigation unit. Both are equally accurate in creating coverage graphs (as long as you collect a similar set of data). It can be easier to collect survey data using the Pro version, but using the Continuous capture mode in the SO version can capture just as much survey data and just as accurately--just be sure to walk at a constant pace between clicks and to not linger at one location while clicking on the floor plan.

We usually recommend the Pro version for someone that will be doing regular (frequent) site surveys, usually in locations where they aren't very familiar with the building layout. And the SO version for everyone else. If you aren't familiar with the survey area, the Pro version automatically tells you where you are and which way you are heading. This can be handy when surveying deep in the interior hallways of an unfamiliar building.

Note that both versions support GPS so if you are only doing outdoor surveys, then the SO version makes the most sense.
