Can your Electronic Data Capture system handle a large amount of data?

17 September, 2019, by clincapture-client

If you have ever ran a data-heavy study, especially a Late Phase study that relies greatly on capturing a high volume of subject data usually spread throughout a long period of time and large geographical area, you know that having the right Electronic Data Capture system is vital. As an industry professional, you may be aware of the negative effects that can result from picking an unreliable system for these types of studies: massive slowdowns, system lags, and limited control over updates (just to name a few).

Historically, only a handful of Electronic Data Capture system providers were able to offer solutions that could handle this amount of data. Unfortunately, these systems usually come with a hefty price tag only few can afford. Cheaper, cloud-based Electronic Data Capture systems, tend to offer Public Cloud solutions. Public Cloud is when an Electronic Data Capture system is hosted on the cloud and you share a software “instance” with other customers. This type of software is generally lower cost (with some exceptions); however, you may need to revalidate and retrain your sites with every release and deal with system lags and slowdowns due to the multi-tenant database infrastructure.

The good news is that there is another alternative for Late Phase studies that is built to handle this type of study: the Private Clinical Cloud®.

ClinCapture offers a Private Clinical Cloud®, which allows customers to maintain their own personal bandwidth. This increases software speed, avoids lags, and gives customers full control over updates. ClinCapture also offers customer support in the European Union and worldwide server options.

Here are a few benefits of using a Private Clinical Cloud®:
Increased security
Optimal performance
Upgrade control
Affordability
Control of server access
State of art IT
Data privacy
Scalable as study grows
No “neighbors” using high CPU/memory/IO bandwidth
Individually tuned
International study deployment
Flexible study freezing or upgrades
No unnecessary changes to disrupt a study
