Overall Satisfaction with Nuance Dragon Speech Recognition
Nuance Dragon Speech Recognition is used as a single license. Not campus-wide.
Pros
- 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
- It crashes constantly. Many times you would lose your work.
- Nuance stopped supporting macOS a few eyes ago. That was an important minus. The last macOS supported version is now useless; it does not even start under the new macOS versions.
- The delay between listening and writing is applications like Word is way too big. I always have to dictate into a simple text editor and then copy the content into Word. Very bothersome.
- Apple dictation works much faster.
- It facilitates writing down first drafts of long documents.
- Once they stopped supporting macOS, many colleagues stopped using it, so it turned out to be a poor financial investment for the department.
Apple dictation is free and already integrated into the OS. It works very fast, and accuracy can be improved over time, depending on what OS version you have.
