Doing PCB layout is easy now.

  • February 18, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The program lets you gain knowledge the PCB layout very easily and also provides videos and materials for learning. Very user friendly. It facilitates 3D vision mostly and we show clearly how to change PCB on the mounting. The Altium interface principles are easy to learn and recall. Altium makes frequency connectivity with equivalent length very easy for multi-layer. This fan out that saves a lot of time instantly. It also allows multi-track dynamic routing at the same time. Generating Gerber is very simple in this app.
What do you dislike about the product?
So many glitches for Altium. Such problems on the bottom edition should be fixed. Occasionally bugs cause major problem in low version design once I produce schematic pdf to eliminate all netlabelling so it's a big issue when I share pdf for schematic checking.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This supports 3D molds to set the PCB in its fixture and that we can layout all types of PCBs with the original mounting elements. Endorse for the production of the PCB step document with all 3D elements helping design the attachment.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is rather expensive but that doesn't matter due to functionality.

Full-featured, but buggy

  • November 11, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Altium (currently on version 19.1.5, but I've used it since it was AD10) is a one stop PCB design solution, so you don't have to export from Altium Schematic to import your design into Altium Layout. Everything is contained in one solution. It has lots of good features (length-tuning, design rule interface, BOM manager). It also has good support for 3D (step file import / export). Altium is very flexible and very powerful; I have yet to encounter a design or task that Altium could not handle in one way or another.
What do you dislike about the product?
Altium's product team seems to focus more on getting new features out, rather than making old ones more robust. Consequently, Altium likes to crash multiple times per day. The license manager is a joke. Our team shares 4 licenses, and sometimes one person will manage to accidentally grab all 4 licenses when simply turning on Altium for the first time in the morning. Multiple contacts with Altium's support team has yet to fix anything but the most minor of issues. It's analysis features / packages are severely lacking. There are almost too many ways to manage your library of components, which makes working between multiple designers extremely difficult unless you have a very robust process in place.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
PCB designs of all shapes, sizes, and technologies.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a great program for designing PCBs when integration with a 3D MCAD program is a must. Consider your top priority, be it 3D integration, simulation, cost, or something else.

Easy to use and intuitive

  • October 24, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use and intuitive, Altium offers tools for searching and managing all project data, as well as viewing and comparing file versions, ensuring that the correct revision is used.
Routing tool advances make the process interactive and intelligent.
3D visualization and SolidWorks integration - allows you to test complex assemblies and perform thermal simulations in SolidWorks
Support for defining the transparency of each object type individually within the project.
Altium stores your preferences and automatically recovers when you open the software.
What do you dislike about the product?
When project is too heavy 3D visualizations slow down the application and may cause the computer to crash
Altium has a giant library (but something is always missing), has a VHDL compiler for FPGA design (via source code or schematic), has a 3D plate rendering scheme (I haven't had a bag of learning to model yet) component in it), in addition to sewing back and forth, button buttonhole, congestion cure, shed, rescues fgts, cancels card, brings husband back and discovers cuckold, just use the program with faith that the rest is up to him.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
All electronic circuit boards are developed in this tool.

BEST software for PCB layout design

  • October 16, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Altium is the best software for PCB layout. It supports most off all PCB layout software file conversion that will really helpful to switch to Altium software. the most likely 3D view of 3D components that will use to make enclosers and we can analyze the design.
What do you dislike about the product?
The software provides signal integrity but that is still some problem so please develop that part. still the cost is too high for purchase.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I can design schematics, I can do placement add custom shape of PCB and do a layout to generate Gerber output for PCB manufacture.

Beginner PCB designer

  • October 09, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Altium Designer is approachable and intuitive, easy to learn for beginners like me
What do you dislike about the product?
For some advanced use is a bit less flexible than expected and sometimes you can get some error without a good explanation on what the problem is
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My entire work is actually based on design with Altium, i've upgraded some old CAD file using altium

Best ever software I ever seen to design PCB layout

  • October 03, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I can design schematic, make a schematic library, make PCB library, doing the PCB layout and also some time simulate the circuits. the most part I loved is to add 3D components in the library that's very cool and view 3D PCB in software. very simple software to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
The price of the software is too high and also too many bugs as compared to price.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I can make PCB by my self and i can make it a commercial product with my own. I can do freelancing with this software and make extra money.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Best software for industrial work because it's very expensive for a single users.

widely use professional tool

  • October 01, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
altium designer is best to capture the schematic and transfer them into a good pcb layout. this tool is easy to learn with wide range of features like layer stack up, DRC selection, circuit simulation and many more. the most eye catching feature is 3D board which can be able to see component placement correctly. while creating components library, you can move origin point wherever you want, which is quite easy to make big parts. very efficient and useful tool for high speed signals like SDDs, HDDs, high frequency signals.
What do you dislike about the product?
compare to pros, cons are too minimal but the one thing is you need high enough computer performance and specification for the better and smooth performance.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have used this tool for 4, 6 and 8 layers with library creation and high speed signal routing.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would highly recommend this software to learn designing deeply. At first when i used is very messy and difficult to use this tool but as time goes, i learned lot of new things and features.

Best PCBA Design Software

  • October 01, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love everything about Altium. The schematic and PCB editors are very intuitive. You can create variants of the same project which is very useful when you want to test different designs. The 3D panel allow you to import step models create/ modify the size of the PCB. You can customize the output job files to generate gerbers automatically with the names that you want
What do you dislike about the product?
I would say that is kind of expensive for small business
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use it everyday for layouts and schematic design
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is worth paying for this software. You will save a lot of time when doing layouts
