Learning in Altium Nexus
What do you like best about the product?
step by step to show how using the software and video is better
What do you dislike about the product?
Project is not easy to read, and when capturing a document in another project, it is not easy.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I would like to get a detail to teach lessons, and the lessons are video and detail step, every key can explain.
I would like to get a test board example, it is high-speed test board, and simple solution.
how synergy with simulation software, for examples SIwave, HFSS?

Recommendations to others considering the product:
will recommend to others for design process using Altium NEXUS, cooperating work, manage data with Nexus
All facilities we need are found in Altium.
What do you like best about the product?
Connection with other databases and make more accessible to find information about components—collaboration work.
What do you dislike about the product?
some options are not obvious but with search problem can be solved.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Electrical schematics, Layout, and documents for production. All in one place.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Flexible tool, user-friendly, and has many options for creating a good electrical design.
Great potential, needs improvements
What do you like best about the product?
Team work, project and library management are great features.
Online overview of the projects and allow also online reviews makes the too adds to the tool power and flexibility.

What do you dislike about the product?
Very buggy on process definition (part release).
Common to get errors on the software, maybe for being limited to version 4.5.1 as per our approved tools.
Overall buggy but with potential for improvements.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Development of Hardware as per Airborne Electronics Life Cycle processes.
Library management and parts release following controlled processes.

Especially licensing is a nightmare.
What do you like best about the product?
Collaboration within the team and process flow is beneficial.
What do you dislike about the product?
Licensing and integrity of all software is the most problematic points. Lots of waits crashes during opening new library, or PCB , schematics, etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
All electronic board development process is now on Nexus.
Excellent tool for streamlining design and integration to PLM system.
What do you like best about the product?
Easily Configurable, Easily manageable, Integrates with Common PLM systems, If you are used to regular Altium, it is not much more effort to learn Nexus. Compared to other software I have used in the past, Altium is clearly on another level.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is a lack of integration between Variants created and what would go into a PLM system - although there is a workaround. reindexing is also an issue as systems need to be taken offline to force a reindex, only to come back online and do a reindex with the system running. It would be useful to allow for reindexing without taking down the system to not cause interuptions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The universal library is easier to set up and manage. Previously we were using a database library but this was not intuitive to all users. Collaboration between different divisions is readily available, Quality issues will continue to decrease over time, Time savings in the Creation of components and uploading to PLM are substantial. Shared building blocks with revision control expedite the design process.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
if your system is running on one of their Supported PLM systems and MCAD products Nexus may be a tool to enhance your business.
The most comprehensive ECAD tool ever created
What do you like best about the product?
The best part of the tool is the absolute control you have over every aspect of the design. The tool lets you customize everything to meet your needs and helps speed up review, collaboration, and design verification.
What do you dislike about the product?
In general, there are very few things that I can think of that I dislike. The biggest thing is that it sometimes feels like features are pushed out too early and feel more like a beta release than a full version. I love playing with the new features, but when they cause issues with our workflow in critical times like production releases, it is very frustrating.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
One of the biggest things that Altium Nexus has solved is unifying our engineers' development, collaboration, verification, and documentation standards. It has increased our productivity and reduced errors by allowing a single platform for everything.
Efficient tool for team work
What do you like best about the product?
You can define the all project work-flow in Nexus from design phase to documentation and component creation and ...
and Altium support is very helpful

What do you dislike about the product?
when I connect to the database(component library) via VPN due to home office, it gets slow
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are an international company in many different countries
Nexus enables us to all work in the same database and can benefits from sharing informations and projects

It's super friendly & Powerful tool for Electrical Engineers
What do you like best about the product?
Altium Designer is a user-friendly tool. It has a schematic Editor & PCB design software working in sync. Both the schematic & PCB files are separate & independent. These files are reusable.
What do you dislike about the product?
It take time to turn on the Altium. Also crashes sometimes when new project is opened. Signal integrity tool has scope of improvement. It is not much user-friendly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a hardware Designer I am designing new schematics for electronic projects. This tool is useful for schematics designing and PCB layout. I prepare libraries for new components as per project requirements. Perform electrical design check for making sure all the connections are on place and electrically correct. Tool has signal and power integrity as add on tools for EMC compliance check. One can review the PCB in 3D view.
User Friendly schematic and Pcb design tool
What do you like best about the product?
It is very user friendly that the person having experience in any other design tool can learn easily. It comes with schematic design, pcb design, Importers, exporters for different type of files.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the things are too user friendly that allows human error chances. For e.g. we can make any net or components relate change in the pcb itself, which in turn open doors for eco to pcb from schematic error.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Schematic design, pcb design, DXF/ DWG import and export, Bill of material generation and export, 3d files view, export , step models view and assignment, export of 3d files, can be directly imported in any mechanical tool!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Good and user friendly tool for schematic and pcb design. Layer stackup design is also easy. Gerber generation is through one click.
Software is OK. Gets the job done. Crashes occasionally, random bugs.
What do you like best about the product?
Cloud storage of projects in Altium 365 is useful, but collaboration between multiple users is not great. It is easy for multiple users to make edits without realizing someone else is editing the schematic due to the lack of ability to "check-out" files.
What do you dislike about the product?
The software seems to be an amalgamation of multiple legacy software packages that have been shoehorned together without being redesigned from the ground up for optimal functionality. This results in random bugs, crashes, and some unexpected behavior for users who are not familiar with the quirks of Altium Designer.
The schematic variant tool could be a lot better by allowing multiple alternate components to be set simultaneously. Currently, the user needs to manually select each part and set an alternate for each case.
Central libraries are very difficult to setup, and importing components could be much more streamlined. Currently, the user needs to rely on importing scripts and 3rd party add-ons.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have been using Altium Designer for Schematic Capture and PCB layout. The tool hasn't necessarily helped me realize any benefits over other tools. In some cases, like library management, Altium has seemingly complicated things.
