Pros

“What I liked the most is that its feature of being able to share design files instantly with team members, view changes live, and comment on specific parts of the PCB layout saved us a lot of time and eliminated version control issues.”

“I have 6 years experienc usign Altium, but now I NO LONGER have the skills to use it because of that STUPID Integrated Component Library that's too difficult to use.”

Frank P.

“Not high level, I find it difficult to use the advanced features. ”

Michael M.

“What I like the least and have difficulty managing are the parametric and dimensional constraints, which I find somewhat difficult to master, despite the software being user-friendly.”
