    it is great so far. when I enter data it automatically saves. I can see the queries if there are pending. The survey status if patients have not yet completed their surveys. Even the ability to send surveys/questionnaires to patients is very convenient. I can see who last opened the patient's file. The ability to redacted documents that is helpful too. The authentication factor is easy to do, aside from security.

    None so far maybe because this is the first trial we have on this EDC and not a lot of participants and not a lot of information to enter.

    Hi Anna, Thank you for your feedback as not everyone takes the time to review. Your input helps us understand our areas of improvement and has an effect on our roadmap. I have passed along your note on the language selection. I'd love if you could expand on what was not intuitive so that I can pass it along to the appropriate team.

    The only issue I have is the time it takes to save a page before I can move onto the next. This may be more down to the hospital's IT systems.

    Pros:
    Easy to navigate, less auto queries, less system checks inhibiting data entry, given ts a web application with no requirement to download the soft ware on a desk top, it’s easier to work on from anywhere and anytime.
    Cons:
    Gets logged out too quickly, requiring authenticating code at each log in, one authenticating code should be enough for 7-10 days to prevent time wasted on authenticating app, the website should be faster with less time spent on loading pages.

    Hi Najia, Thank you for your feedback as not everyone takes the time to review. Your input helps us understand what we are doing well as well as areas of improvement I will pass along your comments on our authentication code to our Product team for review.
