My experience with synopsys has been mixed, and often brutal, lot of unfinished IP, errata to work around, the repurpose IP for a different application and there are hidden restrictions.
Otoh, it's generally cheap as hell, and the sim/emu platforms are great.
Mostly the IP seems half-thought out, even the stuff that's been around for years.
Brought up maybe 3 different generations of the pcie IP, never worked without a fight. DDR3/4/5 was the same.
They screwed up i2c, and UARTS! Not in high speed sync modes, just rs423. I don't even understand how that's possible.
Shouldn't rant, they had good moments too, it's just, their fae/tmes earn their pay.
