Es muy cómoda la manera de filtrar por centros y por pacientes. También es muy reseñable que el cuaderno te facilite gráficos de completación de datos. Cons Me resulta un poco complicado la resolución de queries Switched from [Researchmanager – Clinical Research Suite](https://www.capterra.com/p/192454/Research-Manager/) Lo indicó el sponsor debido a problemas con este CRF Review Source ZI Zoe I. Senior Research Nurse Study Coordinator Research Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Ease of Use" February 18, 2025 4.0 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. Pros Ease of use. The tabs are clearly identified. Cons 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. Review Source RA Rachael A. Research Nurse Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "An excellent platform to manage clinical trial data." February 18, 2025 5.0 I have used Castor for 3 Research studies now. I enjoy using it, and find it's an easy system to access and learn. Pros Castor is an easy to access system and is clear and concise. The questions are clear and unambiguous. Cons 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. Review Source LD Lanre D.

Pros Castor is very easy to use for any study design. You can add and remove based on your Case Reporting Form or questionnaires Cons I did not take note but I would go for the data download process. Review Source NK Najia K. Clinical research coordinator Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Quite good " February 4, 2025 4.0 Quite good but some improvements needed. Authenticating process is cumbersome specially when it gets auto logged out within a few minutes 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. Review Source Response from Castor February 21, 2025 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. SA Sana A.

Practicing physician. Director of clinical cancer research Medical Practice Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Castor EDC is a good product" February 4, 2025 5.0 It was intuitive to make use of, and well-designed. It was helpful that a good amount of time was allowed to enter multiple case reports. I would recommend it and make use of it again myself if given the opportunity. Pros The site worked well. In particular the survey was well designed to perform real-time quality assessment to promote completion of each section and provide feedback if answers were unclear. If there are any problems, human staff were readily available to resolve them. Cons No significant dislike. It might be helpful to have a comment box available for each of the cases reported, in case the person completing the survey has any question about what is being asked for or is not certain that their best response is exactly what is being asked for. Not essential, however. Review Source SK SAMANTHA K.
