[Rdap] mendeley data

[Ali Krzton]

One of the concerns I saw expressed on Twitter was vendor lock-in (from trying to put together all the various parts of the ecosystem, like Scopus, Pure, etc. along with Mendeley Data).  I think it's a fine line to walk between leveraging buying power and being totally stuck with one vendor.

Back when I was first looking at ELNs and Purdue came out with PURR, I envisioned a campus solution similar to Mendeley Data, BUT built by my university. Never happened. We have HIPAA compliant BOX, MS 365, REDCap and also LabArchives free of charge to researchers. CHPC has secure storage servers for a fee. Maybe I can show IT what Elsevier did and will figure it out.

I saw the webinar. I think it's a good product (from what I saw, a trial would be better). Yes, it has more bells and whistles than OSF, but it will cost much, much more as well. Perhaps if you already subscribe to some of their related products like Pure, it may be a good choice. The question, to me, really is will OSF do what you want and need? I'm thinking OSF might be more useful and easier to use to the average researcher.

For those who attended the Elsevier webinar on Mendeley Data - What did you think of the product?
To me it seems more robust, has a more sustainable business model, has an actual data repository solution and provides more control than OSF
