REDCap

REDCap, which stands for Research Electronic Data Capture, is a secure web application for building and managing online surveys and databases for research and data collection. REDCap is widely used in academic and clinical research, as well as in other research areas where data collection and management are critical. It simplifies the process of data collection and provides tools for maintaining the integrity of research data, which is essential for the validity and reliability of research findings.
