Software Dragon NaturallySpeaking 9 Standard [OLD VERSION]

Domain Name Com's - Software : Dragon NaturallySpeaking 9 Standard [OLD VERSION]


  

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - highly recommended
highly recommended and I am using it now to to fill out this response form.
As I have problems with my hands,typing is slow and tedious so this gives me a certain amount of freedom that I've never had before


Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Not what I needed - do your research
I bought a used copy of Standard to try it out because I could not tell from all of the documentation on the Nuance site whether or not it would do what I really need - read MP3 files. It doesn't and none of the versions does. Preferred does process files from digital audio recorders (this should be standard, IMO) but you have to process MP3s into another format first to get Preferred to read them - and from what I have read it appears this is a losing proposition anyway.

Standard understands my voice just fine and its probably great for people who want to talk to their computers, which I do not. I need to process lecture materials (any level of accuracy would help). Can't really do that with Dragon.

My bad for getting Standard, but two stars off because I couldn't find out from the Nuance Website whether or not they sold what I really needed. I'm not the only person in the world who wants to process audio formats from various formats.


Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Get Preferred Edition
Pros: Fast, accurate, intuitive, inexpensive
Cons: Missing vital feaures
Nuance has deliberately ommitted some basic functionality from the Standard edition. I found this out the hard way. When dictating for a half hour or more, the program locks up and displays an error about reaching the limit of its data capacity. According to the Nuance online knowledgebase, this is rectified by changing a simple setting in the program options of Dragon NaturallySpeaking 9. What they did not indicate however, is that in the Standard edition THERE IS NO WAY TO DO THIS! Something as simple as being able to allocate more than a half hour's worth of hard drive space is not possible in this program. You will have to stop dictating, exit the program, and restart the program to get another run. Nuance customer service's solution was for me to buy the Preferred edition to gain the freedom to determine my own max data size.


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Extra! Extra! Read all about it!
I've owned Dragon NaturallySpeaking 9 Standard for about a year now. If you are interested in trying out voice recognition software, I highly suggest you spend the money and invest in this tool. My motivation to buy the product was simply curiosity and to increase the functionality of my Tecra M7 tablet PC. In addition, I added funds from a gift to help offset the cost even further when coupled with the $40 rebate being offered by nuance (the company who makes Dragon NaturallySpeaking) at the time.

You as the perspective or potential buyer should be warned that this software is not a magic bullet. An investment of time is also required to make this tool useful. My investment of time has yielded results which I am pleased with and reflected within the four-star rating.

A brief 20 minute training session is required to set up the initial user profile, and the software does an impressive job of voice-recognition once the profile is created. Additional short stories, speeches and other reading materials are available within the software to help improve your recognition accuracy. My experience showed an increase in accuracy after reading several of these provided stories.

I did not give the product a full five-star rating because I was not happy with the heads-set provided with the software. I had trouble properly adjusting the microphone and could not comfortably wear the headset. The side of the headset opposite the microphone applied uncomfortable amounts of pressure on my head. The problem was easily fixed by buying another $20 headset which rests behind my ears.

In closing, you as a prospective buyer should also know that dictating in my experience did not feel "natural." I did not have previous dictation experience, and it took me several months to get comfortable with this method of communication. The software does perform much better when translating phrases versus individual words. it has gotten better over time and adjusted to my method of dictation. As a result, I recommend any prospective or curious buyer to spend a few bucks and see what the software can do for them.

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Poor
I've had generally poor experience with it. It's slow, doesn't recognize a lot of my words, despite my having it mine my email files and Word files to "learn" which words I use. It helps a little but needs time as I'm constantly correctly it. I'm surprised others have been so satisfied.
