I mean, you could s/Altium/KiCAD. Altium is also free for University students/faculty/staff, FWIW.

Lots of profession electrical engineers that I’ve met pay for personal copies of Altium for their moonlighting work, however. One short contract per year more than pays for it.

Hobbyists stick with KiCAD though, which would suffice for this work. Altium is mainly used by contractors for compatibility with their corporate counterparts.
