Users appreciate features like the clear data collection progress list and the ability to flag missing entries, which significantly enhances data management.
  • Users say that Castor's interface is intuitive and easy to navigate, making it simpler to add subject data. In contrast, while Clinical Research Suite is described as user-friendly, some users find it less efficient for their specific workflows, indicating potential configuration challenges.

Users feel that the platform acts as a good partner in their research efforts, whereas Clinical Research Suite's support has been described as adequate but not as highly rated, leading to some user frustration.
  • Users highlight Castor's strong compliance and security features, which are crucial for electronic data capture.
