  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
In Altium Designer, I like the wide feature that is contain. These features are organized and powerful.
What do you dislike about the product?
I deslike that the student licence can miss some feature like differential pair routing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Making a custom PCB in a professional way can be guaranteed with Altium Designer, a powerful and feature-rich electronic design automation software. Altium Designer provides a comprehensive suite of tools that enable me to create high-quality PCBs.

What do you like best about the product?
The responsiveness, compared to other similar hardware I've used throughout college,Altium just felt the highest quality to use. Within 3 months I went from having no experience in PCB design to designing my very own board, things are easy to find and there is no slowdown, everything just seems to work and work well.
What do you dislike about the product?
The obscurity of keybinds, this may be due to my own incompetence but I had difficulty in finding keybinds. I found myself looking up the key binds myself
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Designing a PCB, it benefited me especially as a beginner with tools such as the error reports, and rules to import from my chosen PCB printer. Everything came out just right and the only errors i ever encountered in my own board were my own errors from a design standpoint, but never a fault of Altium

What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use, provide everything you need for PCB works and keep updating its functions.user friendly interface
What do you dislike about the product?
Gerber review is not that good. each reversion of AD releases fix some bugs but generate new bugs.As I know erery reversion with bugs just more or less.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Schematic and PCB design as well as Gerber generation for manufacturing for company's production lines as well as BOM managment

What do you like best about the product?
It is very good for the education system, it really helps a lot in pcb design
What do you dislike about the product?
Need more tutorials and try to make the menu more intuitive to select options when designing the schematic and pcb.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps me to design the footprints, to improve the pcb design, to have a clear perspective before sending it to manufacture.

What do you like best about the product?
it is very user-friendly. Short learning curve.
What do you dislike about the product?
The flexibility in the analysis section is very limited. Exports as well from that section should be improved.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Moving away from a document based approach.

The Best Online Schematic and PCB Tool

  • April 29, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love the ability to easily share designs with both colleagues and external businesses. The data management tools are great for controlling our design data in a way that's compliant with our quality system. The customer support team are usually excellent, often resolving issues within days of raising them. Our electronics design team use Altium 365 almost every day, and have never encountered any issues with their servers.
What do you dislike about the product?
The increased cost of the "enterprise" license for the feature upgrades that are included with this level are impossible to justify to the business. As our Altium 365 admin, I'd like to make use of some of the enterprise features, but the jump in cost from "Pro" to "Enterprise" is unjustifiable for a business of our size.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Altium 365 allows us to manage PCB design data with ease, mainly through their release and lifecycle management tools. The design tool itself is the most effective schematic/PCB design tool I've used (having been doing electronics design for over 10 years), and massively reduces the time it takes me to complete design activities. I have implemented the lifecycle management tools in our workspace and this is now a part of our official internal design process, which makes it much easier to comply with our quality system.

What do you like best about the product?
Unlike other design software, Altium Designer is more professional and gives you many tools that will be beneficial for your future work.
What do you dislike about the product?
I got a student license as a PhD student. Unfortunately this version is limited in that you can't make changes in all rules, differential pairs are not included and some other features that limited my experience.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Altium Designer gives me the ability to create my own solutions, providing me with the tools to create minimized PCBs and view the final product before it is manufactured.

What do you like best about the product?
The most hepful is the library management and the link of the components with suppliers
What do you dislike about the product?
Some times the routing in the PCB editor is not trivial.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The components management that with active BOM says if a component is active and you can find it.

Pleasantly surprised!

What do you like best about the product?
I have used other PCB design software in the past, but this was my first time trying to use Altium to make a full project from start to finish. I really enjoyed the interface and ease of use. Everything was fairly intuitive and easy to navigate through the commands. I also like the manufacturer part search that is built into the software. This is a big selling point for me on Altium because the most time consuming part of a project for me always comes down to footprints and 3D models. Altium has made this considerably easier. Once I actually made it to the PCB for routing and placing components, I saw where Altium was superior to other software packages that I've used.
What do you dislike about the product?
I am not a big fan of the cloud saving. Maybe I am old fashioned, but I prefer the local saves. This is only a minor inconvenience and even though I don't necessarily like the cloud saving, I see why they want to do it and why it is beneficial for users. Also I am not a big fan of the change from the old design rules to the new constraint manager.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Altium is making my PCB design process much faster by having a lot of very helpful built-in features. It did not take a long time to pick up and learn, which is always a benefit. Also the project output functionality when you are finished with a project, but need to export the Gerber and Drill files is very easy to use and useful.
