Best On-Premises Product Design Software of 2025

Altium Develop is a collaborative innovation environment that connects design, engineering, and manufacturing stakeholders in one place. Instead of teams working in isolation, it provides a shared space where feedback, design changes, and requirements are tracked as they happen. Built on the Altium 365 ecosystem, it bridges disciplines such as electrical, mechanical, software, and sourcing to reduce miscommunication and delays. By giving suppliers and production engineers an early voice in the process, it minimizes rework and accelerates product delivery. The result is a faster, more transparent path from concept to production, with alignment across every stage of development.

Enhance and simplify the process of creating, configuring, and managing technical illustrations to accelerate the product lifecycle with a robust, adaptable, and scalable set of tools. The IgniteTech Auto-Trol technical configuration tool serves as an on-premise solution featuring two key components: Konfig and Technical Illustrator. Konfig acts as a unified configuration management tool that combines electronic document/data management (EDM), product data/lifecycle management (PLM), and workflow (WF) functionalities into one cohesive solution. On the other hand, Technical Illustrator is a CAD software designed to generate and oversee technical illustrations efficiently. This system allows for effective document storage, version control management, and workflow automation. By delivering precise technical illustrations, this tool is essential for product assembly, operation, service, sales, support, and training materials, which are crucial for your company to maintain a competitive edge in the market. With these advancements, organizations can significantly improve their efficiency and accuracy in technical documentation processes.
