### "Data Entry made Easy "

October 26, 2022

5.0

Sincerely, I enjoyed using EpiData for data entry, since the time I was introduced to this software, I have never used any other software for my data entry. EpiData makes data entry easier and more interesting for me.

Pros

EpiData is a software that minimizes error in data entry. What I like most in this software is that it helps one to detect error before entering the data because it allows one to preview your input, if it runs, then no error, if it doesn't run, then there is error and one can quickly correct it. The skip pattern is another fantastic feature that makes it possible pattern the data entry in line with the questionnaire. This allows one to skip some questions based on the response of the respondents. There might be some questions on the questionnaire that your response to it determines your eligibility to answer the questions that follows, one can programme EpiData in such a way that it would skip the questions the respondent should not answer once one enters the response that indicates such. One can also make some responses compulsory by defining it as must enter, failure to enter a response will result in inability to proceed. It also minimizes error by not accepting any response outside the range defined for such item or variable.The summary of it all is that EpiData makes data entry easy and error free.

Cons

The only limitation I see with EpiData is that it cannot be used for further analysis, you have to integrate it with other software to do the analysis.

Switched from

[IBM SPSS Statistics](https://www.capterra.com/p/250819/IBM-SPSS-Statistics/)

I switched because EpiData makes my date entry error free and faster. Although, I still use SPSS for further analysis.

### "Once I was able to completely learn this product is when I truly started seeing value/"

February 9, 2018

5.0

Very good program that takes a while to learn. Would recommend to computer savvy friends.

Pros

What I like the most about this system is it's ability to detect errors. You can customize any type of error you'd like the system to scan and it will scan accordingly. Really comes in handy for niche business. I also like the automated processes this system offers, real time saver.

Cons

This software has a giant learning curve. I still havent figured everything out. If you don't have a solid understanding of computers I wouldn't recommend this product.

### "Medium software for Data Entry"

February 19, 2021

4.0

I have already used an Epidata to enter data on Rabies Outbreaks in my country, the staff collected the data on forms in the health units and two colleagues typed the forms In Cyclone Idai, when there was no internet network, two colleagues typed the data that the heads of the health units sent Routine laboratory data test is entered into EpiData daily

Pros

The System is very simple to use, the programming is very intuitive, with the reading of the manual is it possible to make the data entry very Robust with high data quality, we adapt in own institution because of comparison resources that facilitates the data verification and timely correction, I also liked the report that it takes when he makes a comparison, it is easily and possible to perform a cleaning and correction, in the absence of mobile devices, network data in the situation of emergencies and cyclones to enter data collected on paper for online system, at the moment I recommend EpiData Entry

Cons

The layout of the software at the time of typing needs to be improved, as well as the options for deleting a form and creating a new one, should be placed more intuitively to make it easier for typists.

Reason for choosing EpiData Entry

I chose it because it is simpler to use so far and mainly due to the double entry comparison feature
