Empowering The “Virtual Workplace” with
Altium 365
From home offices to virtual workplaces, the working environment
has changed. For the Printed Circuit Board (PCB) design industry,
Altium has helped make the transition seamless, empowering
collaboration across every aspect of the design process. With
Altium 365, the world’s only cloud-based platform for PCB design
and realization, many of Altium’s customers were able to stay in
motion even during the most challenging times.

As the world gets back to business, Altium is making it easy for
PCB designers to continue to work from anywhere and connect with
anyone.
“The workplace is more distributed than ever before, and at the
same time our customers are dealing with unprecedented financial
challenges,” says Ted Pawela, Altium’s COO. “We want to help the
industry get back on track by making it easier than ever before to
get the tools they need for PCB design, and work collaboratively in
distributed work environments.”
Coming Together Without Impacting Workflow
Altium’s newest cloud-based platform, Altium 365, creates a
connected experience throughout the PCB development and
manufacturing process, making it easy to share PCB designs and
collaborate in real-time with anyone - in any time zone, at any
company, from anywhere - as the design evolves.
The platform has proven to be essential for PCB designers
worldwide, including the teams working on the Open Source
Ventilator Project, a global coalition of engineers, designers and
medical practitioners. With Altium 365, PCB designers were able to
co-design with mechanical engineers, in real-time via an easy
online platform to finalize the designs.
As Douglas Karnazes, Founder and CEO of Velocity Research and
member of the Open Source Ventilator Project elaborates, ‘When you
have 3,000 people working on a project, labor and software is
unlimited; the only limitation is time. We needed close
collaboration with this many people, working from all over the
world, all working from home, and Altium 365 helped pull everyone
together.”
Salt Lake City’s Cirris Systems adopted Altium 365 just before
workspaces shifted from physical to virtual. The need for remote
work options would have been overwhelming for Cirris System’s
one-man IT department, but with Altium 365, the company was able to
transition to remote work without the need for new servers, VPNs or
any downtime.
As Orlan Thatcher, Board Layout Specialist at Cirrius Systems,
elaborates, “Our electrical engineers and myself have been using
Altium 365 every day from our homes to do everything from sharing
designs to preserving tight revision and process controls, that our
bigger aerospace and aviation clients now expect.”
Altium Designer users do not have to change the way they work
today to take advantage of Altium 365. The PCB design team at
SkyShips, a Tier One automotive manufacturer of Infotainment
systems, is using Altium 365 to align the global engineering team
during the entire development process.
“We use the Altium 365 workspaces as a way to keep all our
components, designs and projects all in one place, so that everyone
is working from the same source of information. We are able to
design faster with teams at different locations, “ stated Chris
Brawn, Senior Design Engineer at SkyShips.
Making PCB Design Tools Accessible for Everyone
Altium has rolled out several initiatives to keep the
electronics industry moving forward, including aggressive pricing
for Altium Designer perpetual licenses with Altium 365
subscriptions. Altium is also allowing customers to pay in
installments over a 12-month period, for those customers whose
businesses are strapped for cash.
The newly launched Altium Designer Refer-a-Friend Program is
another exciting opportunity for users to share their passion for
Altium’s tools with their friends and colleagues and be rewarded.
This newly launched program allows users to refer colleagues to
purchase Altium Designer via a unique referral link accessible for
current Altium Designer customers. When used to purchase a new
license of Altium Designer, participants earn cash rewards.
