Altium - The best there is

  • May 30, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The Libraries linked to live status at vendors - Altium 365
What do you dislike about the product?
It's not easy to take someone else's design and change the output folders to suit your own folder setup. Knowing where local libraries are stored and pointed to isnt clear.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Library management is the best feature for me because I am transferring from a CAD system that does not have a Library system that can integrate with a BoM output, live.

Altium is a powerful PCB software that is always updated with new features

  • May 29, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Altium designer developers always focus on updating Altium with new features that save time and effort for developer and provide better performance and to provide better design review experience. also the ease of design reuse and modifications to save redesign effort and time. also the integration with CAD tools is perfect as it provides a good integration with mechanical design team.
What do you dislike about the product?
Merging Designs from some software tools is not supported yet. but they're working on it according to Altium Webinars Instructors.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Solves issues like gap between designers and procurement using the active BOM feature and BOM Portal. Also saves time and effort specially for newer versions like AD23 and AD24

Altium Designer and Altium 365 Review

  • May 28, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Altium Designer is a very capable tool for designing PCBs. It's user interface is both highly detailed yet straight forward and usable after spending time exploring the different features Altium Designer provides. Because of the number of design features Altium Designer has, it is very easy to implement unique and highly specific design features. In addition, Altium 365 makes it very easy for other members of my team to review my work in large detail and to integrate my own work with my team's overall project architecture in the Altium 365 file organization.
What do you dislike about the product?
Altium Designer has a relatively steep learning curve for people new to PCB design and electrical circuit concepts, but the Altium Designer tutorial and free Altium Education PCB Basic Design Course make it much easier to learn.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Altium Designer allows me to design complex PCBs with unique design constraints.

Altium Designer is a reliable tool for professional electronics design.

  • May 28, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Real - time collaboration, shortcuts for editing and very good performance without lag.
What do you dislike about the product?
Folder managment and maybe outdated GUI.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a student, Altium Designer integrates all necessary tools for PCB design, supports real-time collaboration, and offers advanced features for reliable designs. It provides extensive component libraries and built-in simulation tools, making your design process efficient and preparing you for a career in electronics engineering.

Slightly clunky at times, difficult to get started with, but once your used to it, very smooth

  • May 20, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I liked the element of auto-wiring, which made it easy to connect all the ciruitry together.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not all the parts I needed were readily available to use and to rotate objects, the UI proved to be annoying and clunky
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I primarily use altium for PCB design in university

Altium Evaluation

  • May 15, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The possibility during PCB design to route the boards very precisely and the ability to view the design in 3D to get a preview of the shape of the packaging one wishes to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
That we cannot do the autorouting of the map with our specifications and not in random ways. Also, do not display the height of the components when deciding to switch to 3D.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The possibility of viewing the map in 3D to anticipate the shape of the packaging that will be suitable for transport and easy handling.

PCB design software

  • May 08, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Very complete software with continuous updates and addition of new features. The presence of many tutorials and
the support are excellent
What do you dislike about the product?
Keyboard shortcuts maybe not very intuitive.
Navigating between panels should be more intuitive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
PCB design, the many settings help a lot


    Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing

Smooth and professional

  • May 06, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It has every tool needed to design efficiently and provides a very satisfying user experience. I expecially like all the compatibility features it has with other file formats (such as DXF etc.) or how it can be used to transfer old projects from Protel into Altium.
What do you dislike about the product?
Realistically I have not found a real "downside". However one feature we hardly used is Workspace, which is of little interest if the company already has a funcioning and efficient servers infrastructure.

I could see it being used, bit it's not for all.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Altium Designer is providing great help in creating easy to access libraries for our team, and keeping track of work and modifications done on the various projects.

Extremely useful but slightly confusing

  • May 03, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like how easy it is to make a PCB from a schematic sheet and how it then generates the Gerber file instantly without any other steps and it just works. I think the part manufacture selection is very useful but sometimes is lacking in the number of available parts for specific purposes but it is extremely useful instead of having to make each part by hand. The PCB design is quite intuitive and I would say well designed to edit each layer and also when adding anything needed onto it.
What do you dislike about the product?
I feel like a lot of the buttons that need to be pressed to do stuff are pretty poorly chosen which makes it confusing to figure out how to use it properly, I also wish there was like a key bind image that could show you a picture of the different shortcuts to help out since they are not that intuitive making it difficult to do a lot of things. I also feel like the amount of onboarding for the app is quite poor there are only a few YouTube videos that I could say are actually useful compared to the rest which don't really show what is actually needed and or aren't really geared towards beginners making the experience quite poor.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Altium designer is helping me make electrical schematics that I can then turn into PCB's, it has become quite an integral part of my workflow since I'm a student in an engineering college doing comp sci and electrical meaning I have a lot of needs in having a good all in one electrical and PCB designing app. Specifically due to my need for robotics and stuff within comp sci and electrical, it was very useful due to all of the available parts and all of the systems that exist to help expedite the process of making an electrical system and a PCB. I think the biggest thing is the fact that the schematic instantly transfers over to the PCB which I find very useful and is something that I would dread if I had to do it fully on my own.
