Profesional grade PCB Design Software
What do you like best about the product?
Altium's workflow is easy to use which makes using the project so much better. Also, Altium features a plugin called the MCAD co-designer that enables us to push PCBs to Solidworks and vice versa. This is critical for complex designs in tight form factors.
What do you dislike about the product?
The 3D navigation experience feels clunky at times and lacks vertical height measurement tools that would be very valuable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Altium is our go to for creating PCBs when we need a custom solution. It allows us to create schematics, layout chips, and route PCBs fast.
Very useful tool for profesional design houses
What do you like best about the product?
intuitive design workflow, superb library management, easy to use and powerful layout tools
What do you dislike about the product?
the random crashes after doing a considerable amount of work
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
multiboard projects design and good library management
First Design with Altium and 365 Platform
What do you like best about the product?
Cloud based 365 platform for codesign.
Add on Apps for new features like DFM.
Global BOM overview and live cost estimated thanks to Octopart API.
Easy switch from 2D to 3D and back.
Numbers or tutos.
GIT based version control.

What do you dislike about the product?
Flexibility of renting on monthly basis a temporary licence (interneship, workload increase for few month)...
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
with 365 platform, codesign, version control, central BOM mangalent, library part search and API to octopart for cost estimate, Kanban task and active comments. Boastool !...all this help us to improve global quality in design flow and industrial documentation
Easy to use and powerfull, also the coustumer service its so good
What do you like best about the product?
Ease to use, Ease of implemantation, Customer Support,
What do you dislike about the product?
For my computer it is a little heavy and takes more than 3 minutes to load.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Altium in my design classes and it helps me show students how to make good PCBs.
I was amazed about the capabilities and complexity that the softwares offers
What do you like best about the product?
The nice and good documentation that it offers, and the tons of different parameters that can be modified. It is also obvios that is has been developed together with users and this information has been considered in the integration and implementation on the modules which make the software easy to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
That not all of the modules in the online libraries have a footprint or 3D modell, maybe it would be better if a requirement for a modell would be those features.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps me to develop the PCB that I need in a pretty user-friendly developer environment
THE BEST TOOL ON THE MARKET FOR PROFESSIONAL PCB
What do you like best about the product?
capability to manage everything on schematics and circuits
What do you dislike about the product?
it's not easy to start, it'd be better a semplified tool that leads beginner users
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
bus matching lenght
Altium Design for use in Student Design Teams.
What do you like best about the product?
The best part about Altium is all the features that it has. You can easily go from idea, to schematic, to PCB all within Altium. It also has extra features that are super nice, such as the Manufacturer Part Search and an ActiveBOM that keep track of everything working together. Altium is also really great for collaboration and workspaces; no longer do I need to fumble around with Git, I can just get right into action and tell my peers to open the project from the workspace. It's a great way to get straight into PCB design with low hassle. This is especially useful in our student design team, as we have a shared component library and we have tens of projects ongoing at the same time. Anyone can review anyone's project, and Git history makes it super easy to look at changes.
What do you dislike about the product?
My least favorite part is definitely component selection. I feel this process could be simplified a lot, and doesn't have to be so complex. Simply say which component you want, a custom template appears, and it easily links to any manufacturer part. For example, if I want a 0805 12ohm resistor, I really want to be able to select a 0805 footprint template and choose that it's 12ohms. Then, Altium can just find a suitable resistor for me.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We need many PCBs created, such as power distribution boards, motor controllers, battery management systems, anti-sparks, precharge circuitry, remote controls, etc... Altium has all the features that we need to make every single one of these PCBs. It's fully integrated and once you make one PCB it is really easy to transfer your skills to make the next one.
Altium is my favourite electronics design tool to use.
What do you like best about the product?
Great colaborations within electronics teams as well as with mechanical teams. Teams can easily and seamlessly work together on designs.
What do you dislike about the product?
You need an internet connection to work on Altium 365. It is not possible to work offline and sync later, the connecting pinwheel keeps popping up.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Integrating and sharing my electronic designs with the mechanical designers. Interfitment has never been as convenient and easy as it is with MCAD and Altium 365.
Machanical integration and ECO was the first and now I think is the best
What do you like best about the product?
ECO work very well and also libraries are very complete
What do you dislike about the product?
The TOC is very expensive, you need several days just to understand how to place a component on the board, 1 year to be productive
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mastering multilayer PCB with signal integrity and impedance controlled traces is very helpfull.
3D clearence and mechanical integration also help me a lot when fitting enclosures is needed.

Altium 365
What do you like best about the product?
Altium 365 makes collaboration and organisation when working on multiple projects and with multiple team members much easier. Altium continues to add additional features which make designers lives easier.
What do you dislike about the product?
Performance has stedily declined over the years and bugs and crashes have become more prevalent. Customer support is very slow if refered to your local agent.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows us to design complex PCB's in a short time and is relatively easy to teach to junior.
