VERY inaccurate dictation
March 7, 2015
Pros
It puts you through "practice" to let the computer get used to your voice.
Cons
The practice takes FOREVER. Then, on my first try, the printed words were so far from what I said that there was NO way to even come close to understanding what I said unless you heard it yourself. COMPLETELY USELESS for dictation.
Summary
I could not get it to work

Pros
Software saves time and writes accurately. It has very simple commands which are easy to remember. If you have used once or twice, then very soon you will be habitual of this tool.
Cons
Does'nt work on Windows 8
Summary
DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS PROGRAM
Dave_on_CnetApril 16, 2013
Pros
NONE Does not work on XP.
Cons
Sadly I'm to blame for not noticing that you need Vista for this program. I have no idea if the program is any good. But the two programs that hitched a ride on it are malicious, at least on an XP system. Along without learning that my system was not compatible until after the installation was (incomplete), GetSavin and InfoAtoms also downloaded. CNET did not warn me this was happening during the install. Those two (some may think Virus) snoopers caused repeated crashes until 'Advanced System Care' from IObit got rid of them. I'm not endorsing IObit, but I'm at about 99%. If you have these critters on your computer get ASC directly from IOBit, not through CNET. CNET most likely is an unwitting partner, but there download helper needs major work. ... continue in Summery below...
Summary
Had the load helper checked my system and there database up front they could have warned me that the program was incompatible and strongly warned against continuing. Oh Boo Hoo, but consider how many times you forgot something and regret it. Malware after all counts on it. The (CNET) program once written never forgets. I'll be writing a lot more about this in the general discussion form. In Summery Look for and delete GetSavin and InfoAtoms if you find them. They don't show up in Windows list of programs. You'll need to up your game to locate them. Both have been flagged as Malware on the Net. CNET should have known this and warned down-loaders when they were trying to hitch a ride.
Download wouldn't "download"
Christopher715January 16, 2013
Pros
I can't give an accurate review, as the product failed to download from the CNET site.
Cons
I can't give an accurate review, as the product failed to download from the CNET site.
Summary
Would like to see this in "action", but NONE of the "voice recognition software" that I downloaded would download. Kept getting error messages......<br /><br /><span class='notifyMsg'> Updated </span>on Jan 16, 2013<p/>Won't download on my computer. I keep getting "download errors".<br /><br /><span class='notifyMsg'> Updated </span>on Jan 16, 2013<p/>Won't download to my computer, so I can't rate it. I keep getting LUA Errors when attempting to download it.......
Just ok - can't teach it some words
cm_duranDecember 13, 2012
Pros
recognizes most common words.
Cons
Does not recognize proper names or unusual words. Has a training routine that doesn't work. No matter how many times you add a word, it still translates it as wrong.
Summary
If you need a clean document it's pretty much useless - you can write it by hand quicker than you can go back and correct all the mistakes - but if you are just making notes, the text is mostly decipherable.
