Case Study: AstraZeneca achieves easier access to medical information with Soutron

Pharmaceutical Company Choose Soutron For Information Management Solution

AstraZeneca, a global pharmaceutical company with over 54,000 employees, needed a simpler way for its medical information team to manage and retrieve data from its MEDLEY database. With hundreds of enquiries coming from researchers, doctors, and hospitals, the company wanted a user-friendly information management solution that would make the database easier to use and also support CD output.

Soutron provided an off-the-shelf database and text retrieval solution with a graphical interface and Windows point-and-click functionality. The system gave AstraZeneca the ability to manage more than 120,000 references and produce free copies of complete databases on CD-ROM, improving accessibility and reducing the complexity of searches for staff.
