Meets our needs
We needed a DAQ with at least 4 channels, 24 bit resolution and better than 10 samples per second. This unit exceeds our need and works better than our previous DAQ from another vendor. The Pro version of the software is also better, and was worth the $200.

Like anything, knowing how to use it matters
Really a 3.5 star product, and I'm a firm critic of things.
For the average user of DAQ based control & metrology, this device is not user friendly. However, for operating as an I/O control point in an integrated system, it's good. Digital I/O serve as TTL 5V triggers, reasonably stable analog signals act as voltage references for measurement systems, and the temperature inputs are many in #. They can have some instability in thermal measurement (bummer!) and measurement frequency definitely matters when data logging (you need to run the InstaCal configuration utility to set this up). Your application dictates your needs, so go learn on how to setup things to measure well.
One of the downsides is, when connecting to any new PC it often requires you to go setup in InstaCal to establish a baseline configuration before you can use it. Also, the temperature readings are only useful to 0.1°C and nothing deeper.
Maybe not the most optimal I/O device out there for the $$, but certainly if you just need an API-ready instrument, this is a good place to start.

Too low sampling rate
The device is not able to reach above 350 Hz of sampling which is low for most scientific experiments.

Very difficult to use
I am trying to replace a Labjack T7 with the DAQ-2408 and find it nearly impossible to understand and use the Universal Library .dll with a Power Basic program. I have not been able to read a voltage or a thermocouple. The 4 different analog input library calls each give a different return value and there seems to be no way of telling which is correct. The reference files do not clearly give the data needed to initialize and startup the 2408. I have used the C, C#, and Visual Basic examples in trying to understand the units to put in a library call. For instance, cbVIn32(BoardNum,chan,Gain,Datavald,Options) has a term Gain. What the value should be I have not been able to locate in the documentation.
I have a lot of other comments, too many for this listing.
