> 
> **Pros**: It is an accurate and reliable EDC program for designing clinical trials, creating data bases, managing patients visitations and monitoring the feedback. &#10;Training courses were great.&#10;Interface is focused and i can customize the layout of pages.&#10;I can easily export data for statistical analysis in many formats.&#10;Support team is very cooperative.
> 
> **Cons**: Pricing could be a limitation for low budget companies.&#10;Hosted service sometimes stop, may be due to internet issues.&#10;I had trouble using Macro on tablets.

### "Reviewing macro" — 5.0/5

> **Sivasubramaniyan** | *22 September 2022* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ease of use on this which helps in automating almost all of my day to day testing and reporting
> 
> **Cons**: Not upto the various other automation tools available in the market but still would prefer for the ease of use and the cost

-----

### "Feature Remarks" — 3.0/5

> **Babatunde** | *27 February 2019* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Familiar online data capture interface
> 
> **Cons**: There is need for a lot of dynamism with the interface, possibly with the introduction of features for hiding objects/or controls and collapsing dead space rather than just deactivating them and keeping them in view of the users.&#10;&#10;It is vital for users to be able to deactivate and unneeded eForm or visits, at the moment this is not the case. Any eForm or Visit activated in error cannot be returned to its inactive state, littering the study with irrelevant form(s)/ visit(s).
> 
> A very complex patient management is being developed and the have been some good feature implementations but there are instances where much more is desired in terms of identifiable limitations when compared to other mainstream online applications.
