What is FloWare?

FloWare is a suite of valuable enhancements designed to boost efficiency in CAD Flow and PCB design using OrCAD or Allegro. These enhancements were developed to address specific customer requirements related to Setup, Display and Edit, Drafting, Shapes, Check/Review, and Documentation. Installing the FloWare modules is straightforward, requiring no specialized technical knowledge, as the installation wizard simplifies the process. The toolbar displays the menu structure that is compatible with the PCB Editor, making navigation intuitive. Users can select from a variety of available modules to enhance their PCB design productivity significantly. Upon purchase, a license is delivered via email and is valid for your company's location, ensuring easy access to the tools. Each module comes with comprehensive documentation to assist users in maximizing their benefits. Additionally, the user-friendly nature of FloWare allows designers to focus more on creativity and less on technical hurdles.

What is DipTrace?

DipTrace is professional electronic design automation software for schematic capture and printed circuit board layout, developed by Novarm Ltd and in continuous development since 2004. More than 30,000 engineers in over 50 countries use it, including teams at companies working in aerospace, defense, medical device, automotive, and industrial electronics. For organizations evaluating EDA tools, the licensing model is the main structural difference from most alternatives. DipTrace is sold under a perpetual license: purchased once, owned permanently, with no subscription, no annual maintenance fee, and no loss of access when a term expires. Five editions range from $75 to $995 per seat depending on pin count and layer requirements, and volume, network, academic, and non-profit pricing is available. Technical support is included for every user at no extra cost, including those on the free edition. The software runs entirely offline on Windows, macOS, and Linux, with no cloud dependency and no design data leaving the workstation — a requirement for many defense and medical customers. Functionally, DipTrace covers the complete design flow in a single environment: hierarchical schematic capture with electrical rule check and SPICE simulation, board layout with interactive push-and-shove editing, shape-based autorouting, differential pair and length-matched high-speed routing, real-time design rule checking, 3D preview with STEP export, and manufacturing output in Gerber X2, ODB++, IPC-2581, and NC Drill. Version 5.3 introduced a native XML project format that works identically to the binary format, allowing designs to be managed in version control systems alongside firmware and mechanical files. Component sourcing integrates Mouser pricing data and SnapEDA libraries. Migration paths exist from Altium, KiCad, Eagle, OrCAD, EasyEDA Pro, Pulsonix, and PADS.
