Altium Develop Reviews & Product Details

I like how it provides a centralized platform for managing hardware development projects. It improves collaboration between product,engineering and pcb design team. It keeps all the requirements,design data, tasks and documentation in one place Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Analytical dashboards and reporting options could be more customizable, so they provide better visibility into project KPIs and make it easier to track what matters most. It will help us to track executive level progress. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It helps us improve traceability, simplifies design reviews, and keeps teams aligned throughout the PCB product development cycle. The intuitive interface and seamless integration with the Altium ecosystem make collaboration more efficient and help reduce delays. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The platform has a bit of a learning curve for new users, and some advanced workflows take time to set up and configure properly. Performance can also occasionally slow down when working on very large projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We moved from Altium Standard to Altium Develop license and all looks the same with cost reduction. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes takes forever to launch the tool and requires signing in very often. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

More built-in web tools, like the BOM Portal and Requirements Portal, plus MCAD Co-designer with the familiar Altium Designer UI, all at a lower price. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It’s disappointing that an offline installer isn’t available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Altium is the industry standard for PCB design. Altium 365 and ActiveBOM make sharing designs with collaborators and manufacturers easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The user interface is unintuitive. The necessary information to complete some tasks is scattered between official documentation and unofficial support forums. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Tools are build around efficiency. Pricing model is far better than it used to be prior to the "develop" tag being put in the product name. Love the changes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The internal parts library could be better -- missing a lot of components. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It’s easy to design electrical schematics and PCBs, and it also makes it easier to view a realistic PCB layout. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

License managing is sometimes tricky and it needs to much RAM Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Integrated tools that work well together. Draftsmen drawings are very useful. Automated told are helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Bugs. There are many times that the software crashes or just doesn't work. Gotta have auto backup set or you will lose information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The shared work space, importing parts, verification tools, and it's like having one computer that multiple people can use just not at the same time which is perfect. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Online use is slow but desktop solves that problem. Learning curve if you're new but that is normal for any software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the user experience of the interface. I appreciate Altium 365 and that I can share designs and showcase them quickly. I found the installation of Altium Develop very easy and intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When switching from 3D to 2D in the PCB, my screen sometimes goes completely blank. Loading can also take a bit longer. When I click on the cross-reference in the schematic, it works again. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
