Entrypoint Plus Clinical Trials Software: Features

Entrypoint Plus
The Easy Way to Manage Clinical Trials

Entrypoint Plus is a complete system for creating, deploying, and administering custom clinical trials applications.

Entrypoint 3.0 is built around an advanced, scalable, client-server architecture, and uses ODBC to interface with SQL databases for data storage. Reliability, ease of use and cost-effectiveness make it the obvious choice for clinical trials data management.

Entrypoint Plus consists of several modules: the Application Developer, Data Entry Workstation and the Administrator—as well as the Entrypoint Server.

Tailored to Clinical Trials

While many clinical trials software packages consist of one fixed system for all trials, all environments, and all types of data, Entrypoint is highly flexible.

Entrypoint Plus comes with a set of electronic case report form templates for a typical clinical trials application, with fields for demographics, medical history, examination data, adverse reactions, and lab information. You can use these templates out of the box, or you can modify them. Or, you can develop an application from scratch.

In addition to the CRF templates, Entrypoint Plus includes the following features critical for clinical trials:

Rapid Application Development

The Entrypoint Plus Application Developer is easy to use, which means less time spent developing clinical trials applications and case report forms, as well as lower development costs (see Entrypoint Plus demo). Developers can quickly create a wide variety of custom data entry applications with built-in validation, editing, and export options. Many Entrypoint Plus built-in attributes make adding advanced features such as range checks, table lookups, duplication, and check-digit validation criteria a simple point-and-click operation. As you develop your Entrypoint application, you can test it by simply clicking a button.

Entrypoint comes with Logic, its own programming language, which allows for nearly limitless customizability.

A Mature Product

Entrypoint is a seasoned product with a 25-year history. DATALEX developed the first version of a DOS-based Entrypoint in the early 1980s. Six years later, the company rewrote the product in the C programming language and named it Entrypoint 90, which was released in 1991. The company developed a version for Windows in 1994.

In 1996, DATALEX was acquired by Phoenix Software. Three years later Phoenix released a 32-bit Windows version of Entrypoint. Entrypoint was enhanced to support SQL in 2004 and remote data entry in 2006. The 2007 release implemented a client-server design that communicates over TCP/IP and stores data in a relational database.

Complete Product Support

Phoenix Software International backs Entrypoint Plus with a full range of support services, including:

"[the technician] was very helpful and available whenever we had to call during the course of diagnosing the problem… I am very impressed by the level of customer service."
