Frequently Asked Questions

Must I contact the Datacapt team to add new Subject Personal Information fields to my Subject Database?

No. You are fully autonomous in designing and managing your workspace. However, the Datacapt team is available to provide advice and assist you during this process if needed.

Will I be 100% compliant with personal data regulations by default?

In a sense, yes. Datacapt provides a secure, GDPR-compliant platform built to manage contacts in a clinical environment. GDPR is one of the most stringent data protection regulations. However, you are responsible for defining roles, configuring access, establishing internal processes, and activating the compliance options available in the module.

Will I lose all the subjects data I’ve already collected in another solution?

No. We will assist you in migrating your subject information from your legacy system to Datacapt.

Can multiple users work in the system simultaneously?

Yes. Datacapt is built using modern web technologies, allowing multiple users to access the system simultaneously with fast query responses, regardless of the number of users or data points.

Can the solution manage subjects across multiple locations?

Yes. Datacapt supports multiple languages and centers within the same platform. Simply configure user access and translate any custom elements to get started.
