## Reviews

### "EDGE - Easy to use, does what it says on the tin" — 5.0/5

> **Claire** | *10 March 2025* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy to use, easy to navigate around interface, tabs do what you think they will, icons are sensible, system does not respond in unexpected ways.  Operations are 'foolproof' - it is almost impossible to accidentally delete or overwrite something, which makes you confident to experiment.  Support materials are easily accessible and clear, support team are great and really helpful.  System can be optimised to have additional 'personalised' functions via Forms and Workflows so can be easily adapted to your own ways of working.
> 
> **Cons**: System logs you out if no keystrokes/mouse movements after a very short period of time (however this is required by security rules in NHS so not much they can do about this)
> 
> Great system - easy to use, easy to train others to use, now currently could not do my job without it.  I am evangelical about EDGE - it's a great design\!

### "Edge is No.1 for Research" — 5.0/5

> **Alice** | *7 March 2025* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I use Edge constantly throughout my working day, it is easy to navigate around and keeps track of all the studies that I currently have in set up. I use the reports regularly to keep up to date with the tasks I need to complete each week. Uploading documents has now become so much easier with Edge 3 and there are constant updates to make our work each day easier
> 
> **Cons**: Edge logs you out of your account after not using it for 20 mins or so so constantly logging back in.
> 
> Edge is user friendly for all users whether it is used for study set up like me or the logging of new participants to a study or a new researcher who needs to understand the process of submitting a new study. I enjoy training new staff on Edge and showing other members of the team features that we currently do not use within our Trust. If I had it my way we would be using Edge to its full advantage and Edge would be the first port of call for everyone within the department.

### "Manage all projects in one space" — 5.0/5

> **Annemie** | *3 March 2025* | Research | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: This software is designed from the site user's perspective and not from the 'top down' like most other software. As a research site, we have visibility of all our projects and participants in one space, regardless of who the study sponsor is or where the study is being conducted. We can easily see the status of all our projects.
> 
> **Cons**: There are many ways (almost too many) to navigate the system, which can make it hard for new users to learn/grasp. There is a navigation bar horizontally across the top of the page and another vertically down the left side of the page. This can be confusing for new users.
> 
> I love how Edge can be customized to fit what I need it to do. I can also leave out/ignore features/fields I don't want to use, without any issues.

### "Enhancing Research Management with EDGE: Strengths, Challenges, and Potential" — 4.0/5

> **Victoria** | *5 March 2025* | Research | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like the ability to streamline research processes, improve our data accuracy, and enhance collaboration across teams. EDGE reduces reliance on spreadsheets, making finance tracking and study management more transparent and efficient. EDGE provides valuable insights through KPIs, making it easier to monitor progress and drive continuous improvements.
> 
> **Cons**: The lack of interactive reporting, being able to click into reports and invoices and edit it them from a report, limits our ability to optimise record data quality and work more efficiently in real time. If this feature were available, we would use it extensively to enhance data management, streamline processes, and further improve accuracy.
> 
> My overall experience with EDGE has been positive, as it has significantly improved the way we manage research processes, track studies, and maintain data quality. The system streamlines governance, finance, and reporting, making it an essential tool for our team. While it has its limitations—such as the lack of interactive reporting—ongoing improvements and our ability to refine workflows within EDGE continue to enhance its functionality. With the right updates, it has the potential to become an even more powerful research management tool.

### "The Power of EDGE" — 5.0/5

> **Shazma** | *7 March 2025* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: EDGE provides great visibility and transparency of clinical research landscape in real-time through its exceptional user-friendly interface for capturing, tracking, reporting valuable information, and great team support that make things happen for everyone involved.
> 
> **Cons**: EDGE offers a unique collaborative environment that promotes active learning, sharing, and innovating together. This is not only empowering but also, rewarding due to its positive impact on global community. It would be extremely helpful to see more options (potentially in pipeline) around adding forms to bulk participants, view and report costs that are not yet added, breaking down the project recruitment by each financial year within single report, sharing of finance reports with relevant users, and dashboard for a quick snapshot on key performance indicators and for data quality management purposes.
> 
> It has been an absolutely amazing experience working with EDGE, and the passionate team who always go above and beyond to make a difference. Keep up the great work\!
