Advantages: None that I can think of Disadvantages: Takes ages to build up accuracy and then not that accurate
software packages as a solution to this problem, since this combines the speed of speech and the ability to see exactly what has been said to avoid duplication and ensure that everything is covered. I thought that it would stop me formatting the document as I was drafting it. Once the document was finished it could then be given to the secretaries to put it in to the report format, review it and check it makes sense and is grammatically correct.
There are not many speech to text software packages available on the market, and after bit of research, the best one appeared to be that of the Dragonnaturallyspeaking range. Whilst there are many previous versions of this software the current one was version 9.
DragonNaturallySpeaking 9 (?DNS9?) is speech to text software produced by Nuance (formerly ScanSoft). Basically it does what it says ...
Advantages: Time and effort samed Disadvantages: Cost and learning curve
I have been using DragonNaturallySpeaking 9 preferred edition for about a week now. And after initially being quite sceptical and put off by the simple mistakes the program and I made. I am now coming round to it! Before using DragonNaturallySpeaking 9 I used to type everything, as am sure all of you do, however unlike most of you I'm guessing I'm not a very good or fast hyper(typer). Despite using various touch typing programs in the past to try and improve my speed. I am also going to write this review using DragonNaturallySpeaking, and depending on how frequent the errors are when I write this review using DragonNaturallySpeaking 9 I may leave them in with what I meant to write in brackets.

Advantages: Quicker typing, Lots of features, More accurate than before, High quality wireless headset Disadvantages: Takes getting used to, headset poor standby battery life, All sound output through headset
You have a report due soon and it needs to be typed up quick or you won't meet the deadline. You've been at the computer slaving yourself for hours so you decide to take a break but while in the kitchen making a snack, you cut yourself! Your hand hurts and you're left with one hand to type up the rest of the long report. You can only type half as quickly now and cannot finish on time, so what do you do? Use your feet of course! Err?no wait?I mean, your voice!
Yes! Type using your voice and Nuance's DragonNaturallySpeaking 9 (I'll call it DNS for short) will let you do just that! Now before you all start shouting at your keyboards and waiting for the words to appear on screen, the idea is you speak into a microphone and the software will recognise what you're saying and type what you say. This is called 'Voice Recognition' and is ...
