• The presence of an audit trail 
• Possibility to create validations and dependencies 
• You can easily export your data in different formats

Castor CDMS/CDMS is used by researchers in over 35 countries. The flexibility that comes from being able to build your own forms means that Castor can be used for cross-sectional studies, cohort/registry studies, case-control studies, randomized controlled trials, literature reviews and various other study types. The advanced rights system allows you to determine the roles and associated access given to researchers building the study, principal investigators overseeing the study or research nurses entering data into Castor.

Make sure that when you start building your study you take into account the study, reporting data, and survey structure Castor uses to build your research forms. 

Once your study structure is complete, you can invite your users to your study and set your study to live. If your research is initiated from one of the institutes that has signed an institute contract with Castor you can use the institute’s billing code to go live, otherwise you can fill in the field in the invoice details (Settings tab).
