AI Generated Summary
AI-generated. Powered by real user reviews.
- G2 reviewers report that Altium Develop excels in overall user satisfaction, boasting a significantly higher G2 Score compared to EasyEDA. Users appreciate its advanced features, such as real-time collaboration and seamless integration with other tools, which enhance productivity and streamline workflows.
- Users say that Altium Develop's intuitive interface makes it easy to create schematics and PCB layouts, with one reviewer noting it as the best software they've used in their 10 years of experience. In contrast, while EasyEDA offers a free option and a large part-list library, some users find it less robust for complex projects.
- Reviewers mention that Altium Develop provides a superior quality of support, with users highlighting the effectiveness of its customer service. EasyEDA, while functional, has received lower ratings in support quality, which may impact users who require more assistance.
- According to verified reviews, Altium Develop's PCB layout editing and schematic editor features are highly rated, with scores of 9.1 and 9.2 respectively. EasyEDA matches these scores but lacks the same level of user satisfaction in areas like 3D modeling tools, where Altium Develop outperforms with a score of 7.6.
- Users highlight that Altium Develop's ability to handle complex designs and its extensive component libraries make it a preferred choice for professionals. EasyEDA, while praised for its easy routing and design checks, may not meet the needs of users looking for advanced capabilities.
- Reviewers note that Altium Develop's recent updates and positive user feedback indicate a strong product direction, with many users feeling confident in its future development. EasyEDA, while it has a solid user base, has not received recent reviews, which may suggest less active engagement from its user community.
