Smarter with altium development platform
What do you like best about the product?
It's a support schematic capture and routing all in one platform. This platform has easy access to libraries, component and all supplier data. This offers scripting and design rules customization for efficiency.
What do you dislike about the product?
Altium develop offer's a high cost of subscription fees , especially for small team. And required a powerful computer for smooth performance.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps to improve accuracy, like 3D visualize and board verification. And Handel multi layer and high density design.
The most comprehensive electronic design software
What do you like best about the product?
Have a single software for the entire design process. Altium Designer even includes component procurement management and sending deliverables to subcontractors. I also like the support for a multitude of formats as well as the integration with 3D CAD. Customer support systematically responds to requests.
What do you dislike about the product?
For me, the only drawback is the lack of support for platforms other than Windows. Support for Linux and MacOS would be a real asset.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Altium allows managing the entire design chain, including supply management and sending manufacturing elements to the subcontractor.
Altium Instrumentation PCB
What do you like best about the product?
I like using altium because it is the industry standard for designing pcb's. It was easy to use and share in collaboration with my instrumentation module partner to design our pcb in real time,track our changes and make our custom parts when we couldnt download them from the necessary website
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be a bit rigid sometimes and has a slightly less user friendly interface than KiCad
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps a lot in line with my personal and university projects to design a pcb for my circuits minimizing erros and improving performance
Altium designer
What do you like best about the product?
I’ve been using Altium Designer for a while now, and honestly, it’s one of the most powerful PCB design tools I’ve worked with. The all-in-one workflow—from schematic to layout to generating manufacturing files—makes it really efficient once you get the hang of it.
What I really like is the intuitive routing tools and the 3D preview, which is super helpful for spotting mechanical issues before prototyping. The component libraries and integration with part suppliers also save a lot of time.
That said, it’s not perfect. The learning curve is steep—especially if you’re new to PCB design—and the software can be a bit heavy on system resources. Also, the price is definitely on the higher side, which might make it hard to justify for smaller projects or hobby use.
Overall, I think Altium is amazing if you’re working on serious or complex designs. It’s professional-grade, but it takes some time (and budget) to fully appreciate.

What do you dislike about the product?
Beginners may find the interface overwhelming at first.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Altium 365 solves collaboration and version control issues by letting me share my BQ fuel gauge IC design with teammates in real-time, get feedback faster, and keep everything organized in one place.
PCB Layout
What do you like best about the product?
I have used all the altium products and these have been amazing for creating PCB designs. The PCB layout and 3d visualisation are in single environment. It is also providing library and component management
What do you dislike about the product?
The performance can go down when huge projects are worked upon.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
3D engine feature is great as it provides 3D viewing of the board and mechanical fits
Altium 365, What a tool!
What do you like best about the product?
While using Altium 365 what I liked the best is its cloud based interactive feature to show the design and collaborate with teams in the project. It's easy to use and share designs with others.
What do you dislike about the product?
The subscription fee is a little expensive to afford as an individual beginner designer.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Most of the times I got difficulties to open projects on Altium Designer software due to my computes specifications, but on Altium 365 I could open my designs in seconds. So its cloud based interactive design showing feature is a good thing for me.
The best PCB design software I have used!
What do you like best about the product?
I have been using Altium Designer almost daily for the last 17+ years and have designed over 100 boards from simple 2 layer boards to complex 6 layer boards. Altium and more powerful an the UI is more intuitive than other software I have tried over the years. I have previously used Pulsonix, Easy-PC, KICAD and Eagle.
The features in Altium have saved an enormous amount of time spent designing PCBs. One of the many amazing features is the hug and push mode for interactive routing. This feature allows board modifications to be made easily without having to redo all the previous routing.
Another great feature is how easy it is to manage the 3d models for components and the ability to import and export to and from SolidWorks.
The web based documentation portal is great, especially for features that don't get used all the time.

What do you dislike about the product?
Steeper learning curve due to the configurability and feature set of the software.
Creating the board layout can take a long time due to the limited capabilities. The outline must be created from lines and arcs. The work around for this is to just import a DXF that contains the board outline.
The new subscription based pricing model is a substantial increase in price.
The layer stack configuration for flex circuits is kind of clunky.

Altium Designer is the best PCB design software that we have ever used.
What do you like best about the product?
Part libraries with links to distributor pricing and CAD model downloads.
What do you dislike about the product?
The learning curve was steep. There are a lot of features, and it takes time to learn how to utilize them.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Shortened development-to-release cycles thanks to 3D model downloads and part sourcing.
