Altium
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Altium has so many parts and octopart.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find it hard to renumber the pcb design.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Working with mechanical team is much better with step models.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Altium is easy to use. Once you have the rules set designs turn out great.
Very handy software
What do you like best about the product?
Linking schematic to pcb layout is a very powerful instrument.
What do you dislike about the product?
A fully detailed tutorial on the working of vault is missing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A significative worktime reduction
I build few prototype boards and perform some simulations also
What do you like best about the product?
In my opinion the most important is how many possibilities gives us Altium, from building project to perform some simulations up to board configuration.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes was hard to find proper library with layouts for components
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Basically I use Altium to design electronic boards. Sometimes I also check and perform simultions of my boards
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Please be patient :)
My week with Altium Designer
What do you like best about the product?
Learning Altium is quite easy. It is very intuitive.
What do you dislike about the product?
IBIS simulation tool requires some work. There has to be some sort of very easy-to-setup schematic-like IBIS simulation tool that I can quiclly upload IBIS model and simulate to see if I requier termination. Signal integrity tools in Altium, in my opinion, are not even documented really well. There also has to be some sort of tutorial explaining how to use it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I only used it for reallya brief amount of time as I don't have a license. However, I would be happy to use it in my design which includes is a mixed domain system. Analof simulation is not really my concern, but signal integrity is.
Having BOM tools also very useful for manufacturing.
Having BOM tools also very useful for manufacturing.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Signal integrity tools need some improvements, mainly because of it's very difficult to use.
easy to develop
What do you like best about the product?
strong tools and really good gui after 18.
What do you dislike about the product?
database libraries are slow. sometimes shortcuts fail.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
it makes work more professional
Powerful tool for electronics products design
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use, good support for sch, pcb and libraries, good rule check.
What do you dislike about the product?
Change from popup menu to side menu (in AD18)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easy length match tuning, power plane define, high speed & impedance control...
Recommendations to others considering the product:
AD is powerful tool for electronics design with a lot of documentation and user guides, online tutorials etc. AD is also user friendly and easy to use.
Fast, easy to work with and user friendly.
What do you like best about the product?
Lot of options are automated which helps the user to finish the work fast and easy, also a lot of things can be defined before the user starts to work with and it can finish the ebom or easy order.
What do you dislike about the product?
3D export to step, the reason is that it only export the board and the components but the wires (lines) are not visible and a small problem with the test point. This is seen when the step file is imported to solidworks for further work.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
easy import of 3D models from other programs, easier to change components in the schematic, small changes can be done faster, it calculates the distances of the wires that are connecting pins and if you need two pins to be connected with same size wire it can be done by using the options in Altuim Designer
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use Altium Designer You won't regret it, it will help you finish tasks easy and professionally.
Very powerfull PCB design tool
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use, very friendly user interface with lots of options, speed, stability
What do you dislike about the product?
Hmm, most dislikes go to price, but if you consider what you get and when you compare it with other tools you will see very fast that is more powerful than others. And minor dislike to new "GUI" which is introduced in Altium 19, this "Photoshop" look is repelling at the first if you are used to the old ones interfaces (Altium 17, 18) like me.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I would say that you have all the tools for PCB design at one place.
A top product for top dollar.
What do you like best about the product?
It did not take long to get to grips with the program. It is intuitive, organized and easy on the eyes. The learning curve is not steep at all, and there are a lot of powerful and time saving capabilities.
What do you dislike about the product?
The biggest downside is the price.
The support could also be faster.
The support could also be faster.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating novel electronic devices, it is usually necessary to generate 3D models, with components included, and to scale. Altium makes this very easy and attractive
Recommendations to others considering the product:
In my opinion, this is the best PCB design tool out there. It is very expensive, but if you are a professional electronics hardware developer, you will definitely get your money's worth.
Complete project design, schematic, simulation, pcb layout and production files
What do you like best about the product?
Freandly environment, flexible, 3D video for presentation
What do you dislike about the product?
Simulation sometimes crashes, hard to set up
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Complete design, from zero to ready for production
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Powerfull pcb/schematuc design tool
