Prelude EDC Pros and Cons

Extremely easy to use and intuitive interface whether for Sponsor or Site side. Remarkable ability to control the presentation of DCFs. Easy to code on back end Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Anything I ever disliked, has generally been modified on a future update in short order, or the project managers at Prelude were able to provide a workaround Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have used many EDC systems, for veterinary clinical studies, for 11 years and have no problem saying Prelude is my absolute favorite one to use! The company is wonderful, Prelude's team is amazing, and the system is incredibly user friendly, visually appealing, and so easy to navigate through. Running reports is a BREEZE! From study build to database lock and study archiving... when you are in complete chaos... you can count on this NOT being on your list of frustrations. Prelude's team is so knowledgeable and they stay with you from the very beginning, right to the very end. Worth every cent, and in this field, cutting corners will never bode well. If you want data... GOOD data... USABLE data, if you want the submission process to go as smoothly as possible, go with Prelude. ALWAYS go with Prelude! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This truly seems impossible, but there is NOTHING negative to say about the company, the team behind it all, or the EDC system itself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Our customer success manager Samantha and engineer Penny were very helpful throughout the whole process of building something the EDC was not made for. They were constantly helping us troubleshoot and ensuring what we built worked for all stakeholders. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I can't think of many, but calculations can seem a little complex sometimes. However, Prelude hosts monthly webinars to help you become more comfortable with the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the flexibility in building forms to fit the protocol requirements and to be arranged so that they mimick the format of paper forms. Some EDC systems are inflexible causing us to make work-arounds to get the data the way we need it, causing more work and training for the end users. Prelude allows you the freedom to make both simple and complicated forms and calculations that reduce the work for the end user in the clinics, reduce monitor review time and give statisticians cleaner data to work with.

Documenting the testing of role permissions within the system during User Acceptance Testing, Currently the system looks at the forms and fields for all roles but the testing is done more from the role perspective. A solution would be to allow the the tester to select a role and then verify the permissions for all forms and fields were acceptable for that role before moving to the next role.

The Prelude EDC customer support staff are very helpful, knowledgeable, and friendly. As the Data Manager for clinical trial studies, I am able to collaborate with support staff to solve EDC-related problems and make improvements within the study EDCs. The EDC is very easy to use for both study clinical staff and study data staff. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike that sometimes EDC revisions have not been tested thoroughly before being passed to the study team for review. Additionally, there are some forms that cannot be edited. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Prelude EDC is very user-friendly, both for the builders creating the forms, and the users completing the forms. Staff using the forms in our study have been very positive about the experience. Highly customizable forms can be made with the building tool, and the on-form calculations, conditional fields and error checks are very helpful to prevent data entry errors. Being able to export the data immediately after collection, without having to wait for data transcription and verification, is a big advantage that is saving us a lot of time.

The software is supported by a large and detailed Knowledgebase for both builders and users, and Prelude has excellent customer support. We’re assigned a Customer Success Manager who is very responsive and very knowledgeable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is nothing I really dislike about the software. A few issues we ran into were either fixed immediately, or a workaround was provided with a fix planned for the next update. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Prelude makes collecting data easy for study sites and easy to review and anyalize for the Sponsor. The Prelude team (Kate) has been helpful every step of the way answering all of my questions and concerns and walking me through things that were out of my scope of knowledge.

I do not have any dislikes. EDC is superior to paper data collection. It makes data collection and monitoring so much easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Very intuative and easy to use. Drag and drop WYSIWYG works great unlike a lot of other systems I have used. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish there was a universal user admin UI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have enjoyed using Prelude's EDC software for our clinical trials, and I wholeheartedly recommend this company! The customer service and project manager helping us with the build has been professional and a pleasure to work with every step of the way. Their exceptional customer service shows the company's dedication to user experience. They are prompt and responsive in answer any questions, and they clearly understand the needs of their customers.

Can be a learning curve in the beginning but the project managers are fantastic at making it user friendly, as well as the weekly office hours available to the customers to help answer any questions they may have. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
