This software actually works… BUT… There are a few things you need to be aware of.
First, you need a good headset. It doesnt necessarily need to be an expensive one, but a good one. I like Plantronics, myself. This does NOT work well with a built-in microphone.
Second, you need to speak CLEARLY. If you mumble a lot. .. . if you say um a lot… . if you have a thick accent… . its going to be much more challenging to use this software.
Third, you have to give it time. Yes, it works out-of-the-box, but it takes a bit of time for it to learn your voice. If you throw-in the towel, after only using it for a day, then you’re really not giving it a chance.
Ive used Dragon for Window with success. This is the first time Ive tried the Mac version. I know that some have had issues with past versions, but so far, I like this one just fine. I still like the Windows version better, but thats really more of a personal preference.
Is this software perfect? No. I don’t think the Windows version is perfect either. But overall, it works for my needs.
