Up To Date

CRxDirect will keep you informed throughout the lifetime of your custom with Cegedim Rx. We will inform you about new products and services and how this will affect you in your pharmacy.

Any service desk notifications can be communicated instantly to all customers, meaning that we can make you instantly aware if there are any major problems. This will free up our service desk to remain available for the normal day to day calls.

Easy To Use

Downloading the software is very easy, and the application is very small and won't affect the performance of your computer. It should take no longer than five minutes to download on a 56k modem.

Once the application has been downloaded, you will be given simple instructions to continue setting up the program.

It won't invade your privacy, and we will not pester you all the time, only when there is something important to say.

There is a function which enables you to read any previous messages and view all of the files that have been downloaded, meaning you can easily refer back to information you've received.

Customisation

CRxDirect is a fully customisable program, designed with the user in mind. It can be configured to display what you want to see, when you want to see it. This means that you will only receive the relevant information for you, without being bombarded with potentially irrelevant notifications.

Not only this, but you can choose to have the sound on or off, drag the application to anywhere on the desktop to a more convenient place. There is also a 'snooze' function which allows you to view the messages at a more convenient time, meaning the application won't be popping up at your busiest times.
