 Rating:  - Repent!I am the disappointed one who equated iListen with my ex-wife. MacSpeech helped me arrange a second marriage with their new produce, DICTATE. In brief, I am wowed and amazed. It gets complex technical psychiatric terms and phrases. I find myself challenging it as though I am a host on a game show and it is going after a million bucks. Aside from a few forgivable limitations, such as spelling numbers, I am in love. I have been a dictat-or for 30 years, and have gone ... Read More Rating:  - A very frustrating experience, but useful nonethelessI think this program gets a bad rap. If you speak clearly in a quiet room, you can achieve very good accuracy. The trick - in addition to having the microphone properly positioned - is to not speak with much inflection in your voice. If you speak to the computer in the same way you speak to your friends, it will not work. However, if you speak like Mr. Spock from Star Trek -- calmly and logically -- it works fairly well. :-) That said, the program is, on the whole, a frustrating experience. ...

No documentation came in the box, one must also download a PDF from their website. Documentation for the latest version was NOT available from their website. After exhaustive hours of training the software with no results, I emailed the company asking for more specific instructions for recognizing WAV files. Over a month later, I still haven't received a response. I found this product to be completely useless. Rating: - Should be updated to 3 stars --- see updated review commentsUpdate: After my first 9.5 days of waiting for support, I finally broke down and called the paid support telephone. I did get to speak to a really good support contact who waived paying for the support call as I couldn't get the app to open and it had been 9.5 days of no support for the issue. This tech contact was great-- very knowledgeable, friendly and smart... he walked me thru all the potential problems using this speech recognition program and he lead me step by step to resolving ... Read More Rating: - Don't waste your moneyThe negative reviews on this site, and other sites, strike me as accurate. This product is a waste of money. It is so difficult to learn how to use it that the makers have had to create a long DVD to train users. Even after watching that DVD (which they make you pay for) and spending long frustrating hours reading stories and correcting my texts (using their clunky verbal correction system) I have still only been able to achieve an accuracy rate of about 50%. I think you would have to spend days training ... Read More |
