ClinPlus is described in public listings as an eClinical platform that combines EDC with trial management, eTMF and randomisation. This page sets out what those listings say, the questions to put to the vendor, and when a focused self-serve EDC is the better test.

What to know first
The vendor
ClinPlus appears in vendor press releases and software directories as the ClinPlus Clinical Platform, offered by DZS Software Solutions, with a parent company listed as Anju Software. The product is described as a single web platform in which data capture sits alongside clinical trial management, trial master file and randomisation and supply modules. A directory FAQ calls the EDC the data-capture component of that suite, and a vendor release describes replacing separate EDC and CTMS integrations with mapping inside one product.
None of that is a verdict. Listings are marketing, directories can merge or mislabel products, and some pages for this vendor appear under other product names. Confirm the product, owner and current version with the vendor before you compare anything. For the checks that apply whichever vendor you choose, see the EDC vendor audit checklist and the 21 CFR Part 11 compliance checklist. Part 11 is shared between the software and your own validated use of it, so a vendor statement is the start of qualification, not the end.
Decision matrix
The ClinPlus column is a question to put to the vendor, not an answer. Capture's column is from its published product and pricing pages.
| Question | Ask ClinPlus | Capture's answer |
|---|---|---|
| Can we try the real product before a sales call? | Ask whether a trial or sandbox exists and what is restricted in it. | Yes: free sandbox, every feature, no credit card, no time limit. |
| Which modules are in the quote? | List EDC, CTMS, eTMF, IWRS separately and ask which are licensed together. | EDC, ePRO and eConsent in Core; eTMF, CTMS, stratified/blinded randomisation and drug supply in Full Platform. |
| Who builds and amends the study? | Vendor team, partner, or your team? Get change turnaround in writing. | Your team, with an AI study builder that drafts visits and forms from a protocol for review. Setup by the Capture team is $0 on Core per the pricing page. |
| Published price? | Ask for a written quote including change orders. | Core $1,000/month incl. one live study + $50 per participant per month; Full Platform $5,000/month + $30; Enterprise custom. |
| Edit checks and queries | Ask for a demo using your own range rules. | Range high, range low and custom value checks raise an auto-query at entry. |
| Audit trail | Ask for a sample export. | Field-level: user, time, old value, new value, reason; exportable. |
| Data outputs | Ask about SDTM, Define-XML and interim exports. | CSV/Excel with data dictionary; SDTM as SAS XPT with Define-XML. |
| Languages | Listings mention English; confirm what you need. | No multilingual claim is made here; confirm your needs on a demo. |
| Hosting | Regions and residency. | EU (Frankfurt) or US (N. Virginia). |
| Exit | Export format and exit fee. | CSV/Excel and audit trail export; confirm contract terms. |
Upload the excerpt, let the AI draft visits and forms, edit them yourself and enter ten test participants. Every feature, no credit card, no sales call.
How to evaluate
The point is to compare experience on identical work, not to read feature lists.
Six forms is enough: demographics, vitals, one lab table, adverse events, concomitant medications and one scale. Include one repeating section and one dependent field.
For example a systolic blood pressure range, a visit-date window, a start date that must follow the consent date. Ask each vendor to build the same five.
Note who did the work (you or the vendor), how many round trips it took, and what you could change yourself afterwards.
Act as a site coordinator, then a monitor, then a data manager. See how queries are raised, answered and closed.
Pull the data and the trail. Check the codebook, units and change reasons. See audit trail software for clinical trials for what to expect.
Use the EDC quote request template so each reply lists setup, subscription, per-participant, module and change-order lines.
Fair view
Stay if your team already runs studies on ClinPlus, the build is validated, and operations staff rely on CTMS and eTMF in the same system. Switching a live study is a project with its own risk; see how to switch EDC vendors mid-study. Plan a change for the next study, not the current one.
Look at an alternative when the next study needs a quicker first build, when you want published prices to benchmark quotes, or when you want ePRO and eConsent inside the same audit trail as the EDC. Teams unsure whether they need operations modules at all should read EDC vs CTMS and EDC vs eTMF first; many small studies need less than a full suite. For the labour side of the decision, see self-serve vs full-service EDC.
Where Capture fits
Capture starts with the study data and the people entering it. When the study grows into trial master file and site management needs, Full Platform adds eTMF and CTMS without a second vendor.
| Core | Full Platform | |
|---|---|---|
| EDC and eCRF builder | ||
| ePRO and eConsent | ||
| eTMF and CTMS | ||
| Stratified, blinded randomisation | ||
| Drug supply |

It depends on what you need. For a focused cloud EDC, teams commonly compare Viedoc, Castor, TrialMaster and Capture. Run the same excerpt through each rather than relying on feature lists.
Vendor press material describes audit trails and electronic signatures built for Part 11. Ask for documentation and a validation package, as you would for any EDC; compliance is shared with your own validated use.
Capture is a self-serve platform with a free sandbox, published Core and Full Platform pricing, an AI study builder and EDC, ePRO and eConsent in one system. We make no claims about ClinPlus pricing or services.
Yes, on Full Platform. They are not in Core.
Usually not. Start the next study on the new system and read the guide on switching EDC vendors mid-study if you must move.
Yes. Capture is suitable for Phase 1 to 3.
