Great for large teams
What do you like best about the product?
Being able to let everyone across the organization view designs and history without having to install Altium is fantastic. Works well for Technicians who just need to find components on the board or look at old versions without having to install anything or from lab machines. Also really useful for collaborating with procurement, who can browse the component library in a similar fashion. Version control and collaboration features (comments etc) work great with a large team.
What do you dislike about the product?
Currently no way to set share settings for an entire folder. If you want to give a group of users access to all the designs in a folder it has to be done manually. This is a bit of a pain when changing access rights for large projects - hopefully this is addressed in the future.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's helping us get greater consistency amongst designs, and collaborate and share date better with other teams outside of engineering, particularly over different board revisions. Very useful when supporting projects over a long lifetime.
Altium 365 experience
What do you like best about the product?
A365 allows our team to work collaboratively. We are very happy with the way we can view schematics and layouts in a structured manner, but the best for our team is most likely the online integrated library features. This allows us to build, review and manage parts together.
What do you dislike about the product?
We've been using Altium 365 since it was publicly available. It has grown a lot since then, but it's still a relatively new tool. While they continuously add new features, this also means we need to keep adapting to changes in the interface and experiencing new issues.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Altium 36 we were able to improve our workflow with other teams. It's very easy for our industrial designers or software engineers to see what the hardware engineer have built or what they need to take into account with their work.
PCB Design Tool-Simple to Use
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to Design PCB'S. Product Management
What do you dislike about the product?
Not For Very Complex Designs- Signal Integrity and Layer Stack up.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Regular PCB Designs for various requirements, Product Data Management, Rapid Prototyping, Mech Designs
Great for collaboration and managing design information
What do you like best about the product?
Revision control, file/project history features are great and very useful. The ability to do design reviews and comment directly on schematics and pcb files is a great feature. No license required for read-only access to projects. Easy to share design files and manufacturing outputs with stakeholders and vendors.
What do you dislike about the product?
Every software system has bugs and Altium products are no different. We cant completely use A365 for design reviews because we cannot comment on files (pdf BOM, ODB++ files, pick & place files, etc) generated by Outjob files. The software has come a long way.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing designs is easy. Collaboration with stakeholders has improved.
Very very user friendly.
What do you like best about the product?
Altium 365 is very user friendly and self explanatory. Also, very fast, easy to upload file easy to track. Visual is also very nice. Easy to use compare to competitors.
What do you dislike about the product?
Library integration is little tricky and time consuming.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Organizing and version control of design files.
Altium 365 review
What do you like best about the product?
A common repository for design files and a means to share and collaborate on designs. Learning to use the tool is relativley quick and intuitive and the Altium Vault is valuable in our design space.
What do you dislike about the product?
Slow, and sometimes not intuitive. Some bugs still not resolved. A robust signal integrity tool is appreciated.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Collaboration across multiple vendors and in-house design teams. Standard and custom footprint and schmatic libraries.
Share data, manage teams
What do you like best about the product?
Manage Libraries, manage projects, version control
What do you dislike about the product?
Support: on webpage it is mentioned that the request will be processed within some minutes. But what means processed???
Sometimes no support.
Sometimes no support.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Version control & active BOM
Altium is hands down the leader in ECAD systems
What do you like best about the product?
The most progressive ECAD design tool out there! Altium is always making improvements
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes versions are released with bugs, but this is the price of using the most progressive ECAD software out there. Easy for new users to learn as there is plenty of training content online.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Altium has greatly increased how well designers collaborate with each other on new designs. We use A365 which has been well worth the financial investment and has definitely saved our company money by increasing our efficiency in our board design efforts.
Best Addition Yet
What do you like best about the product?
You guys do a great job with version control of Electronic Designs. One big time saver for our workflow is batch component creation. This allows my team to make families of passive components with ease.
What do you dislike about the product?
Something I dislike about A365 is the online browser tool. One time I had a colleague accidentally delete a bunch of components in our vault. Luckily they were still in the trash can however I couldn't select all of the components at once so I needed to click through and restore one at a time. This took hours to do with 800 parts gone. Other aspects of the web browser app don't allow for multi-select either which would be very helpful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The way we do version control of templating and design projects. Before we were very old-fashioned with zipping up projects at certain states and saving them to the corporate server. A365 allows us to not only easily track our changes but allow us to revert to a previous state. We are comfortable and familiar with how GIT works and work with some Software folks. So when they navigate our projects it looks familiar to them and understand our revisioning.

It is hard to remember all the connections and shortcuts.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Circuit board design. I can share the design with all my co-workers
