A fantastic tool for team collaboration and prototyping
What do you like best about the product?
The ability for all team members to access designs to view and add notes. It was a great introduction to the world of PCB design. I have since started using Altium designer and both applications work together very well.
What do you dislike about the product?
The delay between saving to the cloud on Altium designer has been the only minor issue I have encountered so far - though it is normally available about 10 minutes after saving.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a technician, I can easily identify the location of components and traces on the board when performing modifications. I can add notes and easily correspond with the design team remotely.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't hesitate to try it, I'm not aware of any comparable products.
Great ECAD Tool
What do you like best about the product?
I like that it is a one-stop-shop for my designs. It is fully integrated and I can do essentially everything with it for my numerous electronic designs. I like that I can customize almost every setting to my desire!
What do you dislike about the product?
Altium is among the most expensive or rather costly ECAD tools out there. This is in comparison to tools such as Fusion which comes as a package with Eagle CAD and the free tool KiCAD which focuses mainly on just schematic capture and layout.
Having said that, with Altium you get a bang for your buck with all the amazing features.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I do a lot of design development work for different clients all over the globe. This includes clients that are super active in the clean energy business. I use Altium to do designs and I can easily collaborate with mechanical engineers by generating 3D CAD files of my board.
Altium 365
What do you like best about the product?
I really like that A365 allows multiple people to interact with a given project to make the design cycle easier and faster. I also really like that there is a web interface to allow users to review the schematics and layout without needing Altium or the design files. This is nice since it allows the design engineer to keep the version of the original files controlled.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do not like how the different tiers of A365 function. With the Altium subscription, you do get access to A365 but that is the standard account. To fully utilize all the benefits of A365 you will need to upgrade to the Pro version of A365. However, all the seats in the company need to be a Pro seats to get these functions. I feel not everyone in the organization needs to have Pro access.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A365 allows us to have a full version control system without having to maintain our own instance of either subversion or git. The other benefit is the addition of creating a centralized parts library with real-time inventory to assist in the design process.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This system is extremely helpful and will make your job easier once it is setup.
Altium 365 - Making Design Easier
What do you like best about the product?
Collaborative team working. Remote library access and ability to leave comments for others. Web portal is useful and sharing with manufacturers is something that we like the look of.
What do you dislike about the product?
Can be slow and unresponsive on occasion.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
PCB Design. Working in large and remote teams we have seen the benefit especially in the design review stages.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
don't waste time with other packages. just get Altium
highly recommended
What do you like best about the product?
I think it is very user friendly and is seamless to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
i wish the price could be cheaper per month for some of your long term subscribers. maybe offer certain deals to keep subscribers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
solving problems with our company's prototypes.
The Del Facto Standard for Circuit Design
What do you like best about the product?
Possibly the best integration of features and functions for today's modern electrical engineer.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes automated functions cause unintended changes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
PCB Design
Software developer
What do you like best about the product?
Altium 365 support full cycle of devolopming elecronics board. Сonvenient import for production, stable work, good technical support and large community. Good working on big projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
High entry threshold. Bugs, but they have been getting fixed. The cloud component library is a little buggy when it comes to part categorization and symbol names.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Comfortable acces to cloud libraries for our team. Acceleration of development process whean we are used cload version of components libraries. Having projects viewable in a browser is very usefull for me.
Worked under a license and there are remarks
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to see project changes, as well as access to it for the team.
What do you dislike about the product?
I can't access the license with my email, only through the admin's email.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Access to projects for colleagues. Ability to track changes in the project.
PCB design for engineer
What do you like best about the product?
extensive toolkit, availability of information about the software. A large number of official training webinars and other videos
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it hangs. a lot of settings are not at hand
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
board development. convenient output of production files.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Good professional software. Good support service
Solid version control, great for sharing projects with clients
What do you like best about the product?
Having projects viewable in a browser is helpful for me (if I'm not at my workstation) and great for giving clients access to manufacturing files, schematics, etc. It's certainly a lot better than emailing zip files around. I also love the manufacturer component search. Makes it much easier to fill out details of new parts at least, and even better when the symbols, footprints, and 3D models are available.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the cloud component library is a little buggy when it comes to part categorization and symbol names, but all in all I think I prefer it to having separate git repos for Altium libraries and each individual project.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I wanted to have all of my designs and parts in one place and make it easier to sync between the two computers I use Altium on. It also saves me time communicating with clients if they can just download gerbers or a step file instead of asking me to generate and email them.
