Nuance Dragon NaturallySpeaking 12.0 Premium (DVD-ROM)

Customer Review

The desire for a flawless conversion of the spoken word remains a dream with NaturallySpeaking version 12.

Supposedly to have increased by 18% compared to the previous 11.5, the recognition rate. The course I can not verify, but the fact is that too many words still be misunderstood. Even with 99% detection rate, which does not reach the program in version 12 with me, would be wrong of 100 words 1.
Anyone - like me - much dictated, knows that this is not practical.
And did we mention proper names, technical terms or foreign words added, the detection rate is reduced even further.

The recognition of the spoken word is obviously immr yet so challenging that even decades of development work can not provide 100% detection.

What else is new in version 12:

- She is "faster" with "faster CPUs" - which is no surprise really.

- GMail and Hotmail are now supported along with the IE or Google Chrome - who needs it, ok

- An interactive tutorial that takes an experienced user

- A Bluetooth broadband support, for which I have actually bought the upgrade to work with my Bluetooth headset to
BUT: Nope - you need a certified Bluetooth headset so need to invest again, if one has none (see before).

- Clever formatting function, beautiful message reader and quick correction option are marginal changes to the previous version

- Remote Support for Android I could not test. Unfortunately, the recognition rate is not increased under iOS.
Should they be similar poorly Android, it would be unsuitable for professional use.

Conclusion: Nuance remains true to itself. Every year, a paid upgrade. Unfortunately, often with little added value. So even with the version 12th
Who uses the version 11.5 to this upgrade ME can save.
Who still does not have a dictation program, NaturallySpeaking should take a chance and try it.
Dictation for private use is a relief when you have enough time to correct the dictation.

Secretaries need not get worried about their jobs even after the release of version 12.
