Electronics Workbench AlternativesTop Circuit Simulators and other similar apps like Electronics Workbench

Electronics Workbench is described as 'In 1999 the companies merged, and renamed itself after its most well known product, Electronics Workbench. The then current product line consisted of schematic capture and a simulation product named MultiSIM and the printed circuit board software called Ultiboard' and is a circuit simulator in the education & reference category. There are more than 10 alternatives to Electronics Workbench for a variety of platforms, including Windows, Linux, Mac, Web-based and iPhone apps. The best Electronics Workbench alternative is Circuit JS, which is both free and Open Source. Other great apps like Electronics Workbench are QUCS, LTspice, Proteus PCB design and Ktechlab.
