"Our business requires continuous frequent changes to study design. The OpenClinica design tools make it easy for non-technical resources to make, test, and then deploy changes while maintaining compatibility with previous iterations. In the event that the required form logic is really complex, OpenClinica professional resources are there to assist. The webservices allow us to enroll participants and schedule events in OpenClinica programmatically which is a significant time-saver. This also made integration with existing systems and business processes much smoother."

– Director of IT, Applications and Data

"Having worked with OpenClinica and other EDC systems for several years, OpenClinica puts all the others to shame when it comes to customer service; their team bends over backward to help train, explain, and fix. The software is continually improving based on user feedback. The forms are very powerful and have almost every feature you might need: conditional display, modern responsive interface, touch-friendly, lots of question types, conditional requirement, programmable notes to users."
