Autodesk Eagle^® Has Been Retired. Here's Where to Go Next.

Altium Develop gives you professional PCB design in Altium Designer: schematic capture, PCB layout, rules-driven design, native 3D, simulation and analysis, multiboard, and harness design — in one environment where schematic and layout stay in step.

You don't rebuild from scratch. The Import Wizard in Altium Designer converts Eagle schematics, boards, and libraries (.sch, .brd, .lbr) into Altium's format in a few minutes. Review the converted design for any cleanup, as with any import, and your original Eagle files stay accessible in Eagle. (Eagle XML-format files, versions 6.4 through 9.4.)

Design from locally stored projects if that's how you work — you're not required to move every project into the cloud to use Altium Develop. When a project benefits from shared review, component data, BOM, or release coordination, the Develop Workspace connects that work. You decide what connects and when.

ECAD-MCAD CoDesign keeps board and enclosure aligned across the major mechanical tools — Autodesk Inventor, PTC Creo Parametric, and SOLIDWORKS — so design changes don't get lost swapping files back and forth.

Keep revisions, review comments, component and BOM data, and release outputs tied to the project state they belong to — so it's clear what changed, which revision is current, and what went to fab. When you want others involved, reviewers can comment and participate without needing a design-authoring seat.
