Info

The CRU operates on a cost-recovery model. An annual platform maintenance fee applies to help us recover overhead costs for maintaining the REDCap platform, such as system administration, backups, and supplementary license fees.

To provide cost-effective, high-quality support, and flexibility for different needs, the CRU offers service plans. Visit the CRU Website for a breakdown of the service plans available. All tiers will include a level of advanced support and discounts will be available for researchers with multiple projects.
