Customer Testimonials
See what our customers have to say about how the Fluke Connect app and our 100+ compatible tools help simplify their maintenance operations.
“We want to be the premier electrical contractor with a reputation for quality, accuracy, knowledge and dependability. Our partnership with Fluke really helps us reach that goal. [When helping one customer with equipment failure,] I didn’t have to be onsite. The [3540 FC monitor] was there doing its job, and it let me know when an issue arose. It would even email me a snapshot of the graph, and I could shoot that to the customer and say, ‘There’s something going on now. Let’s look at the conditions.’ - John Baker, president, B3 Electric, LLC
“What I love about Fluke Connect the most is the ability to get dynamic data versus time off any of my instruments, whatever measurement I’m taking. That’s the part I love the most, is to be able to look at data versus time, because that's where things are happening. When we take static measurements, that's just one point in time. But to be able to see the spectrum versus the time, that's what's important to me.” - Dan Maxwell, lab engineer, Backer Group
“We just had a major win that saved operations from a critical asset failure. We received heat/vibration indications from Fluke Connect indicating the beginning stages of breakdown. We caught this because of the Fluke equipment.” - Bruce Gallagher, facilities and maintenance, Pratt & Whitney
