Other than playing with n-in-one electronics kits as a kid I haven&apos;t ever touched it much. I recently needed to build a &quot;sensor pod&quot; (my name) for my ongoing 6-camera high altitude balloon project. I got everything working on a breadboard and needed to move it to a more permanent PCB. Enter Fritzing[0].&lt;p&gt;I fell in love with Fritzing pretty quickly. It has 3 mode. Breadboard, schematic, PCB. I was able to copy my physical breadboard layout over to the virtual one. From that, it basically gave me a schematic (what I wanted) and a PCB layout (not entirely useful for me). I had to touch up the routing and fix some lines that wanted to connect VCC straight to GND. I was able to figure it out pretty readily and fix it all and now have a working PCB[1].&lt;p&gt;All this is to say, if you&apos;re a noob, Fritzing is great. This (circuits.io) is probably geared at non-noobs, and I&apos;m sure it&apos;s fine for them. I am not quite able to jump right into drawing a schematic, though. As such, I can&apos;t provide much of an opinion on it. :)&lt;p&gt;[0] &lt;a href=&quot;http://fritzing.org/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://fritzing.org/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;[1] &lt;a href=&quot;http://goo.gl/iWuZF&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://goo.gl/iWuZF&lt;/a&gt;</text></comment>

Eagle is awesome, but as a hobbyist I don&apos;t use 70% of its features. From a quick look at circuits.io here&apos;s what I would want in order to make the switch:&lt;p&gt;1) Let me import my Eagle components
2) Give me more control over grid sizing
3) Autorouter!&lt;p&gt;I&apos;m also interested in seeing the fabrication prices. Right now I use batchpcb.com (a Sparkfun service). There really aren&apos;t any other good options for printing a single PCB.</text></comment>
