Altium vs. OrCAD X

Choosing the right software for your future projects can be daunting.

Today, whenever we discover the need for a new device or tool, or to migrate/upgrade from an existing one, we take the research into our own hands. We vacuum online sites for useful information, ask around to gain insights from experience we don’t have first-hand, and start to put the pieces together. But even then, there are lots of gaps to be filled and many questions left unanswered.

We hate to burst your bubble, but there is no silver bullet in this. No one-size-fits-all, holy grail of electronics development software.

Instead of searching for what “the best” software option is, ask what the right option is for you.
It all depends on your specific needs and requirements to that specific project, you are working on.
