Show Highlights:

• Up until this point, ECAD has been confined to the desktop. Leigh explains how Altium 365 breaks this trend, allowing anyone with an internet-enabled device to interact and collaborate in the design process—directly from a web browser.
• No download necessary: Altium 365 ditches the software download for manufacturers and other stakeholders.
• Is the Google Drive comparison accurate? Leigh demonstrates how Altium 365’s approach to ‘CAD-awareness’ pushes its capabilities far beyond the reach of ordinary cloud-based design tools.
• Is this design manufacturable? Resolving essential questions with the click of a button in Altium 365, allowing designers to instantly share designs as a live view or as a snapshot.
• Never lose a comment thread again. Leigh explains how Altium 365’s ‘contextual commenting’ feature allows designers to attach comment threads right to relevant features in the design.
• Customers, procurement personnel, and project management: How Altium 365 facilitates seamless interaction with secondary stakeholders.
• Altium 365’s option for browser-driven design review minimizes mistakes and pulls more stakeholders into the chain. 
• Supply chains are dynamic and are often subject to radical, unexpected changes, especially in a pandemic. Leigh breaks down Altium 365’s “baked-in” Octopart capability, which allows designers to monitor their supply chains in real-time. 
•  Navigating the ‘new normal’: Leigh examines Altium 365’s important and powerful role for product design in the post-coronavirus age.
• Out the door in 30 days: Reviewing Altium 365’s integral role in the Open Source Ventilator Project’s incredible success story. 
• Success all around: How Altium 365 makes it trivial to duplicate another company’s achievements.
• Leigh looks at the future of the electronics in the wake of this powerful new tool.
