Microsoft 365 Copilot vs. Nuance Dragon Speech Recognition

I highly recommend its usage in Teams meetings to prepare a session transcript, meeting minutes,
next steps and recognize speech by person. Also within the meeting recording, there is separation between the people talking at the time. The Copilot image creation is very accurate and useful to
customize my PowerPoint presentations and other documents

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.

• The main advantage is that it calibrates itself around your tone and accent.

• The quality of image generation in Microsoft Copilot could be improved. Compared to other AI platforms, Copilot's images often fall short in quality and frequently contain typos.
• When generating agents and chatbots, Microsoft Copilot currently doesn't appear to support file download functionality.
• The email reply function is useful, but the responses can sometimes be overly elaborate. It would be helpful to have more options for adjusting the tone.

• 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.

it is nearly perfect and it’s usability one of the main factors and contributing to the score is how versatile this tool is. it is vastly usable in a multitude of circumstances, and has a few limitations, but overall this product works well for what it is intended. It is very helpful for some otherwise time consuming tasks.

Once you learn the product, it is quite easy to use.

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.

I think It lost the race for now. I don't think Microsoft will keep investing on it since we have better tools outside their environment. In my opinion, Microsoft Copilot is not even in the benchmark tools and in the race for AGI. I think Microsoft is way behind and Microsoft Copilot suffered the lack of investment like the one made by its competitors.

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.
