More flexibility with IBM Clinical Development, less heavy to design and offer[s] strong feature[s]. Rave is a stronger EDC system with a very interesting reporting option and a very good reputation with the users, however very heavy to manipulate from the design side.

It was easier to understand the usability of the software [ICD]. For our engineers [it] was easier to migrate our data, and fully set up everything. We found out that comparing other software[s], this one is safe, easy to use, has more functionalities, [and it's] easier to work with team members everywhere making clinical trials more efficient.

IBM Clinical Trail offers an improvement on the above as it is considerably easier to navigate and has many more features. The side did seem faster however and could be used via an app which is useful in a busy environment. Both are around the same price bracket give or take.

IBM is as good or better than Rave. I believe that IBM has a more friendly user interface and is easier to navigate on the designer and Site side. CRF build and study build in general appears to be easier and IBM can be used for almost any kind of clinical study that Rave can be used for.

I have used Clindex, Oracle Clinical, MediData, and MS Access for clinical trials. The product I had the most success with was Clindex but ICD was a close second. I did not select ICD as it was being used when I joined the company. I became a developer within a few months so I was happy it was, for the most part, so user friendly.

IBM Clinical Development (ICD) supersedes the Medrio EDC at any given point of time and on all evaluation criteria. Also as compared to Medidata Rave EDC, database programming is easier due to its intuitive GUI; someone with little or absolutely no knowledge of any programming language can easily create the robust EDC along with necessary validations.

IBM CD is a fast database, doesn't cause waiting during the data entry or when saving the data. This is mostly appreciated by the site staff as they have limited time and any delay is crucial for them. IBM CD has an unlimited option for edit checks that helps collect accurate data. IBM CD is user friendly
