ModelSim Alternatives

ModelSim is described as '-Altera Software' and is an app. There are seven alternatives to ModelSim for Windows, Linux, Web-based and Mac. The best ModelSim alternative is gEDA Project, which is both free and Open Source. Other great apps like ModelSim are CircuitLab, Circuit Tree, Cadence Incisive and 5spice.

ModelSim alternatives are mainly Circuit Simulators but may also be Electronic Design Automation Tools. Filter by these if you want a narrower list of alternatives or looking for a specific functionality of ModelSim.
