I've used their boards in perhaps a dozen different products and they always come out perfect. Excellent service and fast production, even during the pandemic.
I use their boards on about a half dozen products and they're always spot on. Great service and fast delivery, even during the pandemic!!!
PCBs arrived exactly as expected and very solid. Silkscreen came out great, clear and sharp. I had two sets of about 30 boards assembled and only had one issue with a bent pin however one of their customer support reps Justin, assured me they would fix it and expedited the whole process for me. Their PCB software was surprisingly very responsive and easy to use for a free software. I was able to design my boards in it without many trips to their help videos. All in all a positive experience, will be doing work with them again.
As an electrical engineer I've used pad2pad many times over the years for prototypes and small batches of boards. They've always produced high quality boards. They're fast and easy to use compared to many other companies that make you jump through hoops to not only get a quote, but to even order. They even beat their own production times for most of my orders. Most recently they made me a rush set of boards that I quoted and ordered on a Monday to me by Friday of the same week.
I ordered boards from pad2pad. They arrived when they told me they would. The boards were shrink wrapped and had a label with a user number for pcbway.com in China. I went to their website and found I could have got the boards at the same time for half the price.
Placed a couple of orders now and the results have been great. I like the design software and the online method of ordering. I will use Pad2Pad again for any future projects.
Thanks!
Outstanding, could not be happier, quality was excellent and service was delivered as promised! Highly recommend!
We have used P2P since 2010 and have never had an issue with production, delivery or billing. One of our suppliers that I don't need to worry about and that's great for me!
It's a "treat" not a "treatment"... Thanks Again
I have used pad2pad for all my commodore projects LOTS of them ......
the software is very easy to use and gets better every time it is updated , I am very happy with the advancements they have made over the last few years.....
I have made my share of mistakes ...I take full ownership of them as it was me that did it , that being said.... pad2pad did mess up 2 of my orders, once with hole size smaller than ordered, and the 2nd with silkscreen, not putting the o in the word 'commodore' on my boards...but both times pad2pad asked for pictures and immediately with NO hassle NO runarounds, offered to re run the boards for me ....that is what I call GREAT customer service!!!!
would I use pad2pad again????...well I am finishing up my next set of boards to order from them ...so YES I would
yes I could nitpick some small issues with the FREE software ...but it is FREE and EASY.......and pad2pad makes great improvements on every update
Sad to see the negative reviews here. I've never had *any* quality issues ever, and I've been using their service since about 2005! I suspect that the claims are just because the users needed someone to blame for improperly checking their layout, prior to submission. I'm *NOT* saying that problems don't/can't happen; I'm saying that I've never experienced any with Pad2Pad!
Since 2005, the software has improved tremendously with lots of new features, and I can't think of another layout package that's more user-friendly! Support usually replies to questions within 48 hours, and the finished PCB's quality is outstanding! Considering the software is FREE, I can't imagine using anything else!
In my opinion, the only thing lacking is a true schematic capture package.
