We actually switched from altium to kicad at work. For the stuff that we build, kicad does everything we need and it's honestly a bit smoother experience than altium imo. I am sure there is stuff where you absolutely need altium (RF stuff?), but I encourage people to look into it.

RF stuff is fine without Altium. You can use QUCS for synthesis and just tape out in Kicad. Basically this without the manual steps and better impedance control! https://youtu.be/drwGvATLNaw https://youtu.be/drwGvATLNaw

on github openscopeproject there is an interactive BOM for kicad. Opens up a graphical representation of your pcb in chrome and you can highlight all the components you can see how it works on the KiCad Interactive HTML BOM Plugin Demos Joe Bob says check it out (for anyone that remembers Joe Bob Briggs)
