What do you like best about the product?
It's amazing and most powerful tool or application I have ever worked on for the CAD and PCB Designing.
I would say it has all the features for for end to emd development of hardware electronic board designing.

The features or upsides.of this tool that I personally found impressive are like it's editor, ability of tool to easily and perfectly fetch electronic or electrical components properties.
What do you dislike about the product?
No big flaws as such I observed personally but as always there is always room for some betterment and improvement.
File impot export takes long time sometimes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Designing. and modelling of #components.

Powerful PCB design tool with the best routing capabilities

  • December 18, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
For me, the more valuable characteristic of Altium Designer is its user friendly interface. It makes complex PCB designs much more manageable and efficient. I’ve been using this software since my university days, back when it was called Protel 98. The integration of schematic capture, layout design, and simulation is another big plus.
What do you dislike about the product?
The main downside is the high cost of the license, which might not be affordable for small businesses or individual users.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
After being away from PCB design for a while, I’m using Altium Designer to practice and work on internal projects as I prepare to return to commercial hardware design.

Altium Designer is very Intuitive

What do you like best about the product?
Learning Altium designer is such a nice experience, I feel that many of the features that you feel like its nice to have, are already imlemented and getting to use them is also very easy with a couple of online searches,
What do you dislike about the product?
Only time I felt that Altium is missing something is schematic and erber compare integreated, But that has been done in the last two years and I can seemlessly compare designs from altium web view.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Altium seemlessly combines schematic and webview and the altium web helps me maintain and release designs all in one spot, This helps with process mangement, and all design versions are easily accessible too.

Overall great but additional costs have me considering other options

  • December 14, 2024

What do you like best about the product?
The cloud feature (A365) has allowed me to include the entire company in the design process/workflow. From electrical, mechanical and software designers, to supply chain, component management and additional reviewers. It has also made collaboration between designers across multiple offices a breeze. Support from our account manager has always been fast and efficient.
What do you dislike about the product?
Over the past year, Altium has added costs for things that were originally part of our subscription. An example is the Altium cloud (A365). One of the best features of Altium and what originally sold us on moving from Orcad to Altium was the free cloud feature. Now that we are using it and have all our designs in there, we are told that this is now going to be a paid feature.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Altium is making team collaboration much easier. Electrical designers can seemlessly work on the same projects, and the tie in to Solidworks makes collaboration between the Electrical and Mechanical teams simple and straight forward.

Altium has been a better and far more complete design experience than using OrCAD or PADS

  • December 13, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Altium Designer comes with everything you need to get a design entered and laid out in one tool. You don't have to pay for additional functions - it's all there. Schematic integration with large part databases with pricing and availability and powerful manufacturing BOM generation is very slick. SPICE is there for analog simulation. Layout with Altium is great with support for matched length routing, controlled-impedance, differential pairs, guided manual and auto routing. It's a real time-saver once you learn how to use it. The way 3D mechanical models are integrated into the design and output for use in mechanical design is very helpful. Altium Designer is by far the best electronic design tool I've ever used.
What do you dislike about the product?
The price can be high, but there are some attractive options to make it more affordable. When you consider what you would pay for other tools with similar features it's not unreasonable. The CAD world has been moving toward a subscription model for some time now and that can help to manage budgets. Customer support is not as fast as some others, but their staff is very knowledgable and helpful and there is a hugh user base to draw on for support.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I enjoy the way high-speed and differential pair routing are handled in Altium, making things easier. Adding new parts to a design is much easier with pricing and availability up front in the selection process. For a small company this can be a huge time saver. I also really appreciate the way 3D models are handled. It's really nice having 3D design integrated so well in the design process.
