Depending on the product or the manufacturer of the software, various license options are available for individual requirements. A fundamental decision must be made between renting and purchasing the software.
» License information and explanations
Time after time companies inquire with FlowCAD about service providers who can assist with a special project or overcapacity and who are familiar with OrCAD / Allegro tools. The list of recommended service providers only includes companies that can prove their qualification through verified customer references. Please note: the requirements are different and you should always make up your own mind whether the external service provider is suitable for the tasks at hand.
» List of Recommended Service ProvidersFlowCAD is often asked which books about PCB layout or signal integrity are recommended. We have listed here some books that our application engineers have read themselves and whose content we subjectively consider to be useful. This list is not exhaustive and FlowCAD has no commercial use for these book recommendations. If authors think that their books should be included here, please send us a preview copy. We will read and include it here if necessary.
