Consistent with our ongoing mission to make the best schematic and PCB design software available to all designers and engineers, the focus of development for Altium Designer 19.1 has been the further polishing of user-requested features, implementing several bug fixes, and stability improvements. And, we’re committing more software engineering resources to the ongoing improvement of Altium Designer in these areas.
Stability
As a pure-play schematic and PCB software company, we focus on improvements with every release, including making Altium Designer more stable. We measure stability in two primary ways:
- Total number of software related interruptions (errors and access violations).
- Total length of productive user time and efficiency.
Significant effort has been made over the past few releases to vastly improve Altium Designer’s stability, reducing the occurrence of errors and increasing productive design time, in addition to overall user efficiency.
For instance, by analytics measurement the Altium Designer 18 release statistically has 2.5X fewer interruptions than the Altium Designer 17.1 release. This trend continues to improve between Altium Designer 18 and 19.1 which delivers a further 2X improvement.
We are committed to making your PCB design experience easier, faster, more efficient, and smoother than any other EDA vendor.
While our development team monitors and addresses Bug Crunch reports daily and all support cases, we continue to invest even more resources on addressing the customer submitted bugs and Ideas. The result will be an increase in the rate at which they are resolved and the ratio of opened versus crunched/implemented will also continue to improve.
