### "A Pleasure to Work With the Flex Databases Team – Highly Recommended"

November 17, 2025

5.0

Over the past months I’ve been using Flex Databases, mainly the CRA Activity Management module, and it has made my daily work much more structured and transparent.

Pros

The system is intuitive, easy to navigate, and logically organized, so it doesn’t take long to feel comfortable working in it—even with more complex workflows. What I appreciate most is the combination of a user-friendly interface and very supportive, professional management and customer success team. The communication with the Flex team has always been friendly, timely, and solution-oriented. Whenever questions or technical issues came up, they were addressed quickly and with genuine willingness to help. Overall, Flex provides a clean, easy-to-orient environment that supports efficient monitoring, documentation, and oversight of clinical activities. I would definitely recommend it to teams looking for a structured yet intuitive system, backed by a helpful and engaged support/management team.

Cons

The overall structure and workflow logic of this system is somewhat different from other platforms I’ve worked with before, so it requires a brief period of adjustment.

### "Flex Database TMF Feedback"

December 10, 2025

3.0

Overall, the customer service is great and whenever I reached out for any assistance, the issues were resolved quickly.

Pros

The TMF has all the folders pre-populated and the uploading/downloading/deleting functions are very quick and efficient.

Cons

The documents cannot be copied from one site to another within the study. Also, the adding users part is not that user friendly.

Overall experience is not bad, but there are areas for improvement in the system. It would be great to consider implementation of new features.

Pros

1) Convenient navigation 2) Clear structure 3) Good technical support 4) Many options in CRAAM and Investigator Site modules which can be used

Cons

1) Some functions needed are unavailable in the system 2) Access rights in TMF are assigned in a non-compliant way 3) Some specific features are not completely convenient (like TMF workflow) 4) TMF Quality Review section is not easy to use

### "Recommanded "

February 12, 2026

5.0

Pros

The functions are complete, and they keep pushing to upgrade it. It's a good tool at a reasonable price.

Cons

You need to select the module first, then the project, e.g., TMF > XXXproject. Personally, I prefer XXXProject > TMF/CRAAM.

### "Great start with FDB!"

December 7, 2025

5.0

We’ve been using Flex Databases for the past couple of months, and the experience so far has been outstanding. The platform itself is intuitive & reliable What really stands out, though, is the quality of support we’ve received—especially from \[sensitive content hidden\], project manager at FDB. He has been consistently responsive, knowledgeable, and incredibly helpful in guiding us through any questions we’ve had. It’s rare to come across customer support that’s this dedicated and proactive. Overall, we’re very happy with Flex Databases and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a well-supported, efficient solution.

Pros

What I liked the most was the amazing support. The team has been always responsive, helpful, and made the whole experience with Flex Databases smooth and enjoyable

Cons

There’s not much to dislike, but if anything, I’d say there’s a small learning curve at the beginning. However, the great support team—especially \[sensitive content hidden\]—making it easy to overcome.

### "Flex Databases platform"

August 1, 2024

We are very satisfied with the system of Flex Databases.

Pros

Since we have been using the LMS module, it has been much easier for us to maintain an overview and thus ensure training compliance. The system offers a wide range of options and is fun to work with.

Cons

So far we have not had any negative experiences.

There is some room for improvement in the initial System training/exposure provided by Flex

### "FlexDatabases @ CMIC"

October 31, 2016

4.0

We've had great support from the FD team. Everyone is very understanding of CRO business and quick to take action in implementing out requirements. There was also great flexibility in meeting our QA requirements in system validation processes. PS I am filling this form out on behalf of Tameo and I

Pros

modular based setup allows for customized setup depending on project or organization. Quick and rather simple

Cons

There are still some things that we must rely on the helpdesk to do even though we are in different time zones. For example: 1. User account creation timing because of the LMS assigning training when accounts are created. 2. LMS administrator. I can set all other admins but this one is out of control of the Sys Admin.

I would say user testing, but its mandatory to conform with US FDA regs in my industry

Reason for choosing Flex Databases platform

Ease of use and cost

### "Why Flex Databases?"

November 2, 2016

5.0

NCGS has partnered with Flex to utilize nearly the entire suite of cloud-based modules Flex has to offer for the industry. Decisions such as these are not made without careful deliberation but we had very little trouble doing so when making this one. NCGS believes in Flex's vision for their platform as it so closely ties to our own ideals of uniformity and simplicity in operations and the delivery of true quality. The forward thinking and subsequent decision our company made in choosing Flex revolved around innovation and the productivity that innovation brings to the table, for all interests, when expertly implemented through true collaboration. These are only some of the elements that define success but remain the cornerstone's mortar of what differentiates greatness from a lesser. Through collaborative efforts from both Flex's amazing team and our own incredible teams, NCGS is eager to share the very promising effects of the aforementioned cause. We look forward to sharing this focused and productive future. Contracts are just that. Collaboration and innovation defy definition in the upmost productive way. NCGS serves this ideal up daily and I want to say that the team at Flex does the exact same thing. Respectfully, Douglas Snowden, Partner NCGS, Inc
