I’m Terri Sampo, the principal consultant and founder of Clinical Trial Data Services. We are a CRO and are a niche provider. We do data management by statistical analysis. We’ve been using Medrio since 2011 and at the time we were looking for a very cost-effective, easy-to-use solution so we looked around we looked for many months there was a lot of buzz about Medrio at the time. We researched it, we looked at other different other companies and decided on Medrio. Well, we’ve had really great luck with it, it’s been a very nice product for us and our sponsors. A lot of our clients still were using paper-based, especially the early-phase clients they were very cumbersome, very labor intensive. Anytime we had to issue a query to the site we would send that or we would email, it was painful. Medrio has changed our processes by it’s much more efficient it’s a much much more efficient process. Sites now are used to entering data electronically so when we roll out the Metro EDC systems the sites, it’s very easy for the sites to use it’s very easy for them to get trained on the system if they haven’t used it previously so it’s just a much more efficient process. The buying process, using Medrio, is very easy. It’s very simple it’s very straightforward when we started with Medrio we were on a monthly package that worked well for us for a number of years but recently over the past couple years Medrio has come up with the enterprise package and so that has allowed us to pre-purchase monthly payment plans at a reduced rate and it allows us some more flexibility and how we allocate these studies into that prepaid package so that’s been a nice feature that we’ve been using a lot lately. I would tell people that are considering Medrio that is a great system it’s easy to use it’s very straightforward very intuitive it has everything you need to run a clinical trial everything from data entry to data cleaning to data reporting, it has everything you need.

We serve many different industries, generics, small to mid-sized biotech, large CROs, and large pharma sponsors. We’ve been a Medrio customer for going on 10 years. Was early on in Medrio’s evolution as a company and it was a nice partnership. Quartesian was evolving and looking to serve underserved areas in the life science industry. This included a lot of smaller companies, phase one studies, the generics industry, and it was a nice partnership and that Medrio understood the needs of those market segments and was willing to work with Quartesian to meet those needs. The reason we continue to work with Medrio, it’s a combination of the technology it’s evolved over time and Medrio has taken a lot of our feedback and incorporate it into the future product development. We need to move very quickly with a lot of our customers so we enjoy the speed to build and the ability to roll out studies very quickly with Medrio. It’s important for our customers to get their studies up and running as quickly as possible and EDC does not need to be a relearning step and that’s one of the reasons why we’ve continued to work with Medrio for certain market segments were able to build studies within days using Medrio. It’s a very easy tool to work with it’s easy to pull together forms and take advantage of libraries to get studies up and running very quickly. It’s not the norm but we can do it if customers ask us and one of the reasons why is because we use Medrio. The design environments are very intuitive for the study builders and it makes it very easy whether you’re an expert programmer or someone who’s starting out to be able to get technology and get studies up and running very quickly and that’s one of the unique things about Medrio. Not all systems are that intuitive to set up studies. Medrio’s been very flexible in working with us in providing different business models whether it’s study by study or enterprise deals and that flexibility helps us serve the variety of different customers we have.
