Great Value: Library & High-Speed Design Features Included

That the library and project management is no longer a paid subscription add on. There is also a large amount of high speed design features + wire harness features which would otherwise be a paid addition. Gives reason to choose altium over expedition for example.

Intuitive PCB Design Workflows That Save Time, Despite Occasional Crashes

I use Altium Develop for PCB and schematic design, including getting the required impedance matching on traces and lengths. I find it simple and easy to use, and the workflows work really well. I like that they keep improving the design to help speed up designs. The manufacturer parts with their footprints save me a lot of time. I also switched because it was cheaper and had more features, and the initial setup was easy.

Easy to Use and Affordable, but Crashes Too Often

I find Altium Develop easy to use, and I like its cloud-based parts. I switched from PADS and ORCAD because Altium Develop was cheaper and easier to use.
