Easy to use. Almost all components are available in its library. i have designed number of PCBs in proteus. its first PCB designing  software which i used.

**What do you dislike about Proteus?**

Some time it gives error due same component but different catagory. it is also complex for begginer.

**What problems is Proteus solving and how is that benefiting you?**

we can implement all electronics circuits on proteus and also desig pcbs just a single click. it also have auto PCB design feature.

  ### 2. Flexible and Convenient Project Management Tool

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ahmet Savaş G. | Board Member, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 15, 2023

**What do you like best about Proteus?**

It has made our lives easier, especially in short-term but important projects. Since time is limited, the management of each step is very important and it provided us this convenience.

**What do you dislike about Proteus?**

Their screens could be more user friendly. When we look at other programs, I can also state that it is not a bad situation, since there is a similar situation. It would be nice if there were easier and more user-friendly screens though.

**What problems is Proteus solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It enabled us to take action more comfortably in short but important projects. In addition, being flexible and able to do customization based on our business processes was an advantage for us.

  ### 3. Great Tool to design Virtual Circuits and Make complex Circuit and simulate.

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ashutosh L. | Software Engineer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 28, 2021

**What do you like best about Proteus?**

All main Processor like Atmega, Aurdino are easily available.

**What do you dislike about Proteus?**

Should be more user friendly, Should Run on any Computer.

  ### 4. I'm using Proteus from past 7 years. And I Love using it

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Aasim S. | Electrical Site Engineer, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 13, 2021

**What do you like best about Proteus?**

The best part of proteus is that it updates its libraries very frequently. Also, the footprints of all the components are up-to-date.

**What do you dislike about Proteus?**

Sometimes when I covert Schematic to PCB, it starts lagging. I wouldn't say I like that part.

**Recommendations to others considering Proteus:**

Those who are looking to consider using Proteus. I will strongly recommend Proteus if you are a new user or an expert.  All the libraries are updated, and simulation is way too easy. All the components are easily accessible. You need to type the part name and see all the available variants on that name.

**What problems is Proteus solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Whenever I need to design a new circuit to see the outputs, I plan it manually and then convert it to Proteus Schematic. During the product development, often, the footprints of any old part/component are not updated, which makes a mess. and I have to redo all the stuff again from scratch

  ### 5. Easy to use, easy to teach, good results and performance, friendly GUI

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Usama A. | Lab Engineer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 19, 2021

**What do you like best about Proteus?**

User Interface and how everything is accessible right in front of the user. So many device packages are available. Smooth running. It does not slow down the computer. Multi-layer PCB Designing. 3D rendering.

**What do you dislike about Proteus?**

Searching into too many packages. Sometimes not finding the right device/package. Too much information makes it complex to select one thing. Less information about errors. Simulations run without incorporating a physical setup such as a grounding element.

**Recommendations to others considering Proteus:**

Use help. Ask the community if there exists a problem. Start with basic circuit designing then go for PCB Designing and/or microcontroller-based circuits.

**What problems is Proteus solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Circuit designing and simulation. Multi-layer PCB designing for embedded systems to be utilised in IoT applications. Simulating motor control using microcontroller for semester projects. Teaching for electric circuit analysis. Benefits include ease to use. Availability of help and examples. The way it checks the electrical errors. 3D rendering of circuits.
