Any suggestion on DFM tools?

[Zoe Li]

We are a PCBA manufacturer based in Shenzhen. To ensure smooth assembly, we always conduct DFM checks prior to PCB production and component procurement.
Currently our engineers can only run automatic verification on SMD pads with the existing DFM tool. Through-hole dimensions have to be measured manually.
Could you recommend cost-effective DFM software that supports full automatic inspection for all components?
Thanks in advance!:)

After my review, HQDFM and NextDFM appear to be the best options for our small business.
Has anyone here used FAB 3000? Among other tools besides the two above, it seems to be the most professional and cost-effective?

I have used it as a viewer and as tool to create a centroid file when the customer has only supplied Gerbers it was fairly effective at that, easier to use than GC-Prevue version. Plus you can trial it for free and even rent it for a fairly low sum to give yourself enough time to see if it works for your use case. I can tell you that at least twice per year they will have the option to buy the lifetime licence at significant discount.
