Covidence and Rayyan
Covidence is an online systematic review program developed by, and for, systematic reviewers. It can import citations from reference managers like EndNote, facilitate the screening of abstracts and full-text, populate risk of bias tables, assist with data extraction, and export to all common formats.
Covidence is a core component of Cochrane’s review production toolkit and has recently also been endorsed by the Joanna Briggs Institute.

Review Manager (RevMan) is the software used for preparing and maintaining Cochrane Reviews.
RevMan Web has been designed to integrate with other systematic review software and new features and updates are added regularly. Cochrane Review authors can log in to RevMan Web to view the dashboard (all reviews) and edit reviews online (intervention or flexible reviews).
RevMan 5 is the desktop version of the software used for editing reviews not currently editable in RevMan Web (diagnostic, methodology, overviews), for non-Cochrane reviews, and for offline working. You can use RevMan 5 alongside RevMan Web if needed.
PICO Portal is a systematic review platform that leverages artificial intelligence and assists with identifying relevant citations, de-duplication, screening, full-text review, and evidence mapping for systematic reviews.
The Systematic Review Toolbox is a community-driven, searchable, web-based catalogue of tools that support the systematic review process across multiple domains. The resource aims to help reviewers find appropriate tools based on how they provide support for the systematic review process.
