REDCap is especially useful for collecting and managing sensitive and personal information. It was created in 2004 at Vanderbilt University and it is constantly developed by the members of the consortium.
REDCap is installed on the University of Helsinki's own servers and the data collected when using the application is also stored on the University's own servers. REDCap provides automated export procedures for data downloads to Excel and common statistical packages (SPSS, SAS, Stata, R).
