Version: Dragon Naturally Speaking 10
"No Download available, just full price offers"
Pros: Zilch available
Cons: This should not be shown as a "download available" product. Nuance is shutting down any downloads, let alone trials.
Summary: I have used several earlier versions. Although a native english speaker, it could not handle even slow speech. I have been told I have very good diction, so cannot understand why the product never seems to catch up. I would like to try a trial ver... read more

"Really like this program - Have some issues with it too"
Pros: I really like this program. It crapped out while trying to read my email to get a sense of how i talk/write, so i just skipped that part. I did the 10 minute training, and it has a 95%+ accuracy. My 11 year old can work it too but less accurate
Cons: having it do the punctuation is only about 20% accurate. you can have it insert punctuation, or you can dictate punctuation. it is a pain to have to always remember to tell it "period" , "comma", "question mark" etc.

Summary: David Pogue was wrong (in my experience with DNS). I have never been able to install. After countless attempts to run the installer and many hours on the telephone with the Nuance representative and absolutely nothing of value from them via my "escal... read more

"Excellent Program -- much improved over earlier version"
Pros: I'm surprised by the low reviews. I have this software to be great and much better than earlier versions. You have to have a good microphone and sound card though. This version works with minimal training. Very accurate.
Cons: Seems to take a lot of memory during use.
