Rating:  - Mac Speech
I was using "Dragon Naturally Speaking" on my Windows programs and loved it. After a short training period I was dictating with at least 95% accuracy.
I recently switched to a Mac computer and choose Mac Speech because it was by "Nuance" which I thought was the same company that produced "Dragon". I have found out that this is not the same company and the program does not work nearly as well as Dragon. I have spent lots of time with training it and still get loads of errors. I would prefer ...

Rating:  - Pay No Attention to the Negative Reviews
Pay no attention to the negative reviews that have been posted regarding MacSpeech. While no voice recognition software will function perfectly, MacSpeech is the closest I have seen to voice recognition perfection in over ten years -- beginning with IBM's pioneering VIA Voice in the mid 90's. Regarding MacSpeech's customer support shortcomings, again, pay no attention to the negative comments regarding it. My call was answered immediately, and a solution to my problem (dragging the wrong icon during ... Read More
Rating: - Bad install disk problems persist
I read the caveats about bad install disks for this allegedly excellent rendition of Dragon Dictate Naturally Speaking. Because of the elapsed time since initial introduction in January, I assumed that the bad disks had been replaced or pulled.

Rating:  - The Best Mac Voice Recognition Yet
MacSpeech Dictate, while not perfect, is by far the best Mac voice recognition software that has ever been available. It is far superior to IBM's ViaVoice and MacSpeech's earlier software, iListen.
After a comparatively brief training session, and a review of the manual, MacSpeech Dictate gives me 99.9% accuracy speaking at a normal rate, without any requirements of exaggerated pronunciation, and without having to pause to wait for the software to catch up. It supports a wide variety of ... Read More
Rating: - A MUST HAVE PRODUCT!!
I got this software for my dad who is a psychologist and has lots of reports he needs typed. He has tried dictating with other software in the past, but they never worked well enough. My dad knows nothing about computer and he was able to use this device and has been very successful with it. He no longer has to hire a person to type his reports, be is able to dictate and have them typed up all in one step. He has called me many times and talked about how much he loves this product. This is the best product ... Read More
