dragon naturally speaking

I am very happy with this product. It takes some time to train it to one's voice, but it performs very well once the learning curve is over.

NaturallySpeaking does more than expected

Alison, my wife, purchased this product for me from Amazon. Since I'm the person using it she asked me to write the review. She purchased the standard edition version 9.5 because we were not sure how well it would work. We were simply looking for something that would do voice to print, while my hands were recovering from injury. After the initial tutorial and voice check, which took about 15 minutes, I was able to fill in an e-mail, plus work in Word. After gaining confidence with that, I started studying the other lessons and realized that the software was very handy for working the desktop, filling out forms online, and even navigating webpages.
The only downside, if you want to call it that, is that you do need to pay attention to the fact that you are using it. It helps to think out your sentences before you speak them, and watch for words that begin or end with s. I have also found my answers to somebody in the room & a call-out to 1 of our cats, in the body of an e-mail that I was dictating. The software works almost flawlessly with Word and Web-Mail, formerly known as Outlook Express, but will sometimes not allow selections and corrections in certain website response boxes. If I know in advance that what I intend to write will be fairly long, and do not know if the box will allow me to use all of the features of the NaturallySpeaking, then I will do the work in Word then cut and paste it to the web. This is a minor inconvenience compared to typing out the entire response or comment using the eraser end of pencils held in my hands; which had previously been my only option.
After my wife saw how well the software worked, she purchased a copy of the NaturallySpeaking preferred edition version 9.5 for herself. Because she sometimes has trouble with her left hand, plus knowing how well the standard version worked she wanted to make use of some of the other options, as she does a lot of work on her computer. She ordered hers with the stereo headphones, as I had upgraded to stereo headphones due to enjoying music while I'm on the PC. If you don't listen to music while working on your computer then the standard single side headset will probably be fine for you.
In case you are wondering, yes, I did write this opinion using my NaturallySpeaking. I did have to make some corrections, as in a few instances I did not think my sentences through, then failed to properly enunciate what I did want to say. Another reason that you want to speak in complete sentences is that by following what you are saying, the software can decide which spelling of a particular word is needed, for example, it can choose, in the context of a sentence, whether you need thier, there or they're. While it may not be foolproof nor 100% perfect, it is one of the best pieces of software I've ever worked with and has been a tremendous help to me, even only having used it for about three weeks. By the way, you do not need to speak loudly for the software to work, a normal speaking voice or even lower, works just fine.

Its like cheating at work

Don't think twice about purchasing this item. Just do it! I use it at work. It is like cheating, it is so easy. I am totally addicted. Even for writing this review I am using it. Setting it up is a no-brainer and using it is as natural as speaking. Now I'm driving everybody crazy with all my long e-mails :-). You can even command it to make a smiley face. Enjoy!

What a great product

I am so impressed with the dragon software. Right out of the box, after a short time of going thru some examples I was able to use your product. I have had two throat operations and my voice is very deep and hoarse. Not an easy task to recognize my voice. Thank you for making such a wonderful product. I can write my book alot quicker now, The bonus is being able to dictate replies to my e-mail friends. It does not get any easier then this.

Addition Improved

This is an improvement over the previous edition. Its speech recognition is much improved.
However I did use it to type this opinion and it first typed addition rather than edition. But maybe I just need another cup of morning coffee.
