What do you like best about the product?
Hello, I like Altium 365 for her simplificación for use, an it's cert isseu to use and send to others people. The organización IS isseu and is esay to look the information.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like the opcions to search t'he projects or information. Or the options of configuration the people use or viuwer us dificult. I don't like the organización of folders.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's not possible to use more simplified short curs to use the Altium 365, i haver a very younger user. It's posible I don't use the Altium 365 correctly her funtions.
combining the work of electronics and mechanics
What do you like best about the product?
Shearing 3D documentation between colleagues, updating the documentation and having a quick acces to it. I also like the new feature of sharing the CAD design between CAD programs and Altium. It makes the work much quicker.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like it to have an option to simplify the PCB design before exporting it to step file. ( usually not using most components of the pcb during CAD work) .
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It makes the cooperation of mechanics and electronics much faster, simpler and more efficient. It also provides easy acces to documentation for people who don't use Altium on daily basis.
Friendly and intuitive online collaboration with Altium 365
What do you like best about the product?
I've been using Altium in my daily job for about 10 years, but the introduction of Altium 365 meant an undeniable improvement in terms of collaboration between different people/departments, both internally in the company and for sharing designs with clients. It's extremely easy now to share the design in any of its phases.
The most useful feature for us is that Altium 365 allows to include any member of the company in the workspace and give them read or write access to each project or to specific projects. We use it for reviews during the design phase and also to create releases once a board is produced, so that the software department, for instance, can access anytime to any version of the project. Thus, they always have clear which HW vesrsion of the boards are in their desks, avoiding lots of misunderstandings for small design changes between versions.
In addition, these users don't consume any license, so the designers can continue working without any problem.
Ocassinaly we also use Altium 365 to share the design with customers. They only need a free Altium account. This way we waste less timepreparing and sending the project files to our customers.
Another good point about Altium 365 is the possibility to push the design directly to the mechanical department, thereby eliminating the need to create tedious step files.

What do you dislike about the product?
On the other hand, Altium put a lot of effort into the control of versions and releases of the full product, which is absolutely unnecessary for us since, in our company, we have our own version control system using SVN. It even becomes a problem when a project folder is versioned using both systems. A commit using Altium software doesn't always upload the files to both systems. It always uploads the file to SVN, but not always to the Altium git.
Our problem is that we need both systems in parallel, SVN in order to meet our internal requirements and Altium 365 for the collaborative use we make of it. Additionally, our standard nomenclature doesn't match with the Altium nomenclature for releases, so we can not easily integrate both.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In the past we had a lot of conversion problems between the STEP files generated by Altium and the imported result by our mechanical team sofware. Now, with just one click the design is pushed to the mechanical team and they can also go back with modifications and so. That is a significant time saving.
Easy to use with very useful features for sharing projects with other people.
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use is one of the key aspects. In our case it is very useful to import PCB data to Solidworks using the Mcad Codesigner feature.
What do you dislike about the product?
It does not work well if you are using SVN as versioning system
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The main problems that it is solving are:
-Being able to share schematic+pcb
-Ease integration Altium/Solidworks

Senior engineer in design electronics units.
What do you like best about the product?
Sharing designs with the other engineers. Shared libraries.
What do you dislike about the product?
Difficult to say. I don't see such things now.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Cooperate with the other engineers (mechanics, electronics), and EMS.
I use Altium365 for sharing ongoing projects with team and for libraries sharing.
What do you like best about the product?
It helps me to get feedback from my team about necessary corrections in the design. Adding comments to schematic is very intuitional.
What do you dislike about the product?
Library items can not be locked for further changes. Team member is able to make unintentional change.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The exchange of information between employees is faster and more precise. One component library for all team members decrease numbers of prototype desings.
I can`t imagine working alone, let alone in team, without Altium 365.
What do you like best about the product?
The most helpful thing about the A365 is collabration. I appreciate the fact, that you can easilly access your projects, review schematics etc. This is not done so easily in other software. Moreover, I personally prefer to look at schematics in A365 rather than AD
What do you dislike about the product?
The components library is very unintuitive. I am lacking an option to block the edition of the compoennt. Also, I would expand measurement posibilities and visibility of some scheamtics features, for example: parameter sets are not visible in A365
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- Sharing schematics is very easy
- Comments (most useful way of advice and design verification)
- design accesible from everywhere
- the project history and coming back to the revision is an absolute must have
Those are my four primary advantages

What do you like best about the product?
I really appreciate how Altium 365 makes collaboration a breeze for our team at Technica Electronics. The real-time collaboration features allow us to work together seamlessly, no matter where we are. It's been a game-changer for our productivity. Plus, the cloud-based platform gives us easy access to design files from anywhere, which is incredibly convenient for our on-the-go work and collaborations with partners. Overall, Altium 365's collaboration tools and accessibility have made our R&D work at Technica Electronics much smoother and more efficient.
What do you dislike about the product?
I've noticed that the user interface can be somewhat complex and overwhelming at times. It took a bit of time for our team to fully grasp all the functionalities, and some colleagues found it less intuitive than they would have liked. Simplifying the interface or providing more user-friendly guidance could help address this issue.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Altium 365 simplifies project tracking, task assignment, and timeline monitoring, boosting overall organization and It enables secure sharing of design data with external partners, enhancing our supply chain efficiency.
