Come To The Dark (Mode) Side

Many of the decisions made by our Trial Interactive product team start as suggestions from our user community of clinical professionals. While planning the development of our recently launched Clinical Trial Management System (CTMS), we led a focus group where clinical professionals weighed in on potential improvements for the new CTMS.

Generally speaking, users felt dissatisfied with interface options from available systems. We found that, more often than not, users over 40 years old wanted options to control font size for readability on their desktop or laptop. For users under 30, most reported wanting to have all information pertaining to the clinical trial available on their personal device (iPhone, Android phone, tablet, etc.) through an app. A common interface request that somewhat defied age brackets was an option for “dark mode.”
