"IDBS E-Workbook"

3/5

What do you like best about IDBS E-WorkBook?

IDBS E-workbook is allows a Process Development user to ensure that they are compliant with their development work. It allows users to review one another's work. I like the file structure of the software, which allows users to only access project folders they need access to. As someone who has used this system as and administrator, I like the ease of use of using the permissions system with IDBS. There are a lot of features with E-workbook, including Request and Inventory module. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IDBS E-WorkBook?

As someone who has used spreadsheet designer, I find that it is learnt quite easily, at the basic level. However, there is a steep learning curve to ensure that administrators/spreadsheet designers understand the software fully. It is quite complex for big templates.

Whilst I do like the modular approach of E-workbook, it would be great to have inventory and request modules included in the E-workbook module. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is IDBS E-WorkBook solving and how is that benefiting you?

E-workbook has been implemented as an ELN and allows us to store all of our primary data in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
