I like that the complete project is designed in one tool, and everything is in one project file. No need to export netlists to layout tools. The ability to export 3D models of a board is very valuable. The possibility for several users to work simultaneously on the same project simplifies the design procuedure a LOT!

For example, if the jump to zoom is too close, there's an option to change the amount of zoom. Also, the validation of a schematic can be as in-depth as you want it to be and you can easily jump from the error listing to the point in the schematic where the error is. Altium is fully integrated with schematic entry, layout and even simulation all without jumping into a new application.
