    My job requires that I produce lengthy and detailed minutes of meetings and Nuance Dragon Speech Recognition is absolutely ideally suited for this purpose. Notably, meetings are recorded and it is extremely easy to playback the recording of meetings while dictating notes. This is a remarkable saving in time and effort in producing minutes that might otherwise take a few days. I cannot think of any scenario where it would be less appropriate to use Nuance Dragon Speech Recognition other than in a situation where it is not possible to dictate for whatever reason.

    memoQ
    I believe memoQ is the best CAT tool of all the ones I have tested. As a PM, it has a lot of file filters that are highly customizable. You can even use cascading filters to add extra filter settings to the default file filter. Also, the use of REGEX is almost available everywhere in memoQ. You can use regex for filenames, regex for tagging items in files, regex when importing items, regex when exporting translations, regex for QA checking, regex for filtering, etc. They also added a regex library so you can save your favorite regex and easily reuse them. From a translator's point of view, the LiveDocs functionality is something that no other CAT tool has (to my knowledge). With LiveDocs you can just add any type of document, and if it has selectable text, memoQ will search this text as if it were a TM while translating. Even for non-bilingual documents, this is really helpful as you can sometimes need to reference other materials while translating.

    Pros
    Microsoft
    • The main advantage is that it calibrates itself around your tone and accent.
    • Integration with many apps and operative system is good.
    • Integrating custom words and acronyms is very easy, so, over time, recognition becomes very precise and customized.

    Cons
    Microsoft
    • Word recognition can always improve.
    • Sometimes puts stray words or characters on the page if you forget to tell the microphone to go to sleep.
    • Adds non-spoken words for no reason if there is a delay in speaking.

    • Nuance Dragon Speech Recognition is not up to par with any of the other AI voice recognition technologies currently available
    • The software is also very buggy and crashes frequently
    • Punctuation also seems like an afterthought for Nuance Dragon Speech Recognition software--requiring the user to speak out each comma, period, etc.

    Usability
    Microsoft
    Overall, its gives the functionality that I need in my role and can support with automating tasks. I mainly use it for autotext, to add blocks of text and it works universally across all applications. It saves time and works well in Windows 11. It works very well navigating the web.

    One of the worst companies in terms of customer service getting the download file because of a laptop upgrade took me months of work. No jokes.

    Other than the more recent speech recognition tools from Microsoft, Google, etc., I have always used Nuance Dragon Speech Recognition. I was introduced to AI technology on an appraisal assignment. During the engagement, I had an opportunity to learn about the technology, and when I researched speech recognition software, the best reviews were of Nuance Dragon Speech Recognition. I purchased Nuance Dragon Speech Recognition and have stayed with the product.

    memoQ
    We are using memoQ for only certain projects and it’s not our main tool. It’s relatively slow and sometimes it can get too complicated. It does the job in the end but we prefer Memsource because of its easy-to-use interface as time is very important for us as project managers.

    • Able to handle projects with difficult files that we would otherwise need to edit before translating.
    • Locking/tagging segments and strings with regex to reduce translation volume/cost.
