I upgraded to the 3S shortly after this… I upgraded to the 3S shortly after this version hit the market. Big mistake! I called Simrad every week, multiple times a week, for about three months. They don't answer or call back when they say they are going to. The equipment will not update and I constantly get a message stating I need to update. With guidance from Simrad, I have reset my system multiple times and still without resolve. If I didn't have about 15K into the system, I would gladly change it out for Garmin. I will never buy Simrad again. They have horrible customer service, they are dishonest and will say anything to get a customer off the phone.

I needed an RF 25 N I needed an RF 25 N, rudder reference. I ordered it from a local source, but they couldn't, didn't provide the part or any information. I got tired of waiting and went on line. Simrad said it was in stock. I was skeptical, but ordered anyway. Then I sent an email saying that It is supposed to be in stock. If not cancel. They responded immediatly it shipped. I received it the next day. I couldn't be happier.

No GO XSE.... Got a replacement cover for a GO XSE. It was the most confusing and confounded experience you will ever endure. Nothing is straight forward. They don't explain you have to know screen size and mounting before selecting the cover. Much like other reviews it was not a good experience. The cover I got is a sloppy fit but most lively because it is not exactly correct. Seems to me when you sell a product the SPECIFIC manual should come with it not some catch all booklet. For a name like Simrad I think they can do better....

Purchasing through the website is easy… Purchasing through the website is easy and very effective. Simrad should get 5 stars for that. Unfortunately tech support is hard to reach, and although they are very kind and serious, don’t expect a follow up to a problem left unresolved. Great products, but not easy to use, and support needs more staffing.

FOUR HOURS ON HOLD AND STILL NO ANSWERS! After spending over FOUR HOURS on hold with Simrad Tech Support, I still haven't been able to reach a warm body with any knowledge about how to resolve a simple issue with my brand new NSX 9. I have rarely witnessed worse customer service from a company with which I spent thousands of dollars. If you DO decide to buy a Simrad unit for your boat, DO NOT consider an NSX model. Evidently almost nobody in the company knows anything about them and they are anything but user friendly.
