I wondered about the pros and cons of perpetual vs. So, I started learning all I could about PCB design software licensing. The meaning and significance of all of this was lost on me, since I was the newbie that hailed from the hardware side of the tracks. Online forums were rife with spitting-mad designers who had bought Eagle software outright many years before, and now felt they were being held hostage at subscription gunpoint. Autodesk acquired CadSoft, creators of the Eagle design tool, in the summer of 2016, and Eagle users had just been informed that their software was moving from perpetual to subscription-based licenses. My new colleagues were launching solutions to support an angry mob of Eagle software users. It sounds straightforward, right?

Recently, I joined Altium to do something I am truly passionate about-work with PCB designers and deploy resources to support their important work.
