"I'll name my first child tazti!!. Tazti is fun to use!"

October 9, 2009  |   By barneybyte

Version: Tazti Speech Recognition Software for Windows 7 and Vista (32-bit) 1.1.2

Pros

tazti is somehting I haven't see anywhere else. Cutting edge speech recognition features. Like spellsearch, logging into facebook and myspace, controlling itunes by speaking to the software. Very easy to indtall and run. Lots of fun. Cool stuff.

Cons

I did a couple of training sessions because I have an accent. But only took me about 30 minutes. How do i say enngllissh? No built in dictation... but heck, I don't use any dictation anyway.

Summary

This software kicks butt. I can only imagine what tazti programmers will come up with next!

"Have you tried Dragon (Naturally Speaking)?"

September 22, 2009  |   By Miep.Visser

Version: Tazti Speech Recognition Software for Windows 7 and Vista (32-bit) 1.1.2

Pros

Would love to hear why anyone thinks that this is better than others, e.g. Dragon.

Cons

Like my youngest child: doesn't want to listen .....

Summary

Dragon is not free, but it works well once used to your voice and accent.

"Far and away the most fun speech recognition out there"

April 26, 2009  |   By boneami

Version: Tazti Speech Recognition Software for Windows 7 and Vista (32-bit) 1.1.2

Pros

Many built in commands and the ability to create your own. No other freeware even comes close.

Cons

Same bugaboos you find with any speech recognition in that it doesn't understand you all the time. Still if there's anything out there better, paid or free, I'd like to see it.

"Excellent Speech Recognition Software and it's Free"

April 11, 2009  |   By andyswims

Version: Tazti Speech Recognition Software for Windows 7 and Vista (32-bit) 1.1.2

Pros

Easy to install and runs great! Best free software I've run across in years. See details of Pro's and Con's below....

Cons

Nothing bad. See details of Pro's and Con's below.....

Summary

Pros:
- I can very easily perform voice searches of all these search engines: Google, Yahoo, MSN, Ask, Amazon, eBay, Wikipedia, Youtube, Digg, Flicker, Technorati, Facebook and Myspace, AOL Video.

- Tazti also performs stock market voice searches through google finance. I check some of my stock portfolio daily using Tazti.

- I can also use 35 speech commands to control my iTunes music player on my PC.

- Another feature allows me to perform voice searches of Internet Explorer, Firefox and safari for a bookmark I've saved. I have hundreds of saved bookmarks and it's great to be able to search them all by voice.

- Tazti also lets me get into my Facebook and Myspace accounts by talking to my PC. Then I can use speech commands to go from area to area!

- I can turn on my AOL and Yahoo messanger and my camera by using speech commands.

- For me the best feature is the ability to create my own speech commands. I created one speech command " Yo baby I love my chevy" and associated it to my chevy news website. So I say the speech command into my mic and my PC opens my favorite chevy website automatically!! No more typing. I created another speech command "save some cash" that when spoken opens dealcatcher.com. I have other commands open opening programs, files and other websites.

- Also lets a person click, double click and use context menu by speaking to their PC.

Overall I've never seen a speech recognition application do any of this stuff. These guys are the first at what they are doing and it really works.

Check out their youtube video if you want to see it in action for yourself: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C1tt_aeIAM8


Cons: They are still working on a 64 bit version, but the 32 bit version works great on all my other PC's! They did not include a dictation capability, but I use another application that I paid $120 for, to do letter dication.(Tazti is free!) The XP version takes about 30 minutes to train, but it was worth it because the speech recognition quality was excellent! I also installed the Tazti Vista version on my Vista machine and it only took 15 minutes to train also providing fantastic speech recognition.

I use a pretty good $31 mic headset and I get great speech recognition on my XP and Vista machines. This application is clearly built to offer hot new features and also to reduce the amount of clicks and keyboard keystrokes a person needs to make when using these features. I guess that I'm eliminating 85% to 90% of normal keystrokes when I use tazti for the features it offers. But tazti is not for eliminating 100% of keystrokes. I could probably get rid of 97% if i was wanted. Either way it really helps with my tender fingers in the winter. I have intermittent pain from too much computer use and am not disabled.

So cheers to the guys at Tazti for breaking new ground with a fun speech recognition app that I can use daily!

Whoops I made a mistake in my original review. Tazti works great with 64 bit operating systems. Sorry about that. Got it confused with something else. Andy

Sorry I made a mistake. Tazti works fine on my 64 bit Vista operating system machine. I was thinking of another software that has problems...

""Tasty" program, tazti!"

October 1, 2008  |   By RebeccaRipple

Version: Tazti Speech Recognition Software for Windows 7 and Vista (32-bit) 1.1.1

Pros

Excellent program! Does exactly what it says and more.

Cons

I don't think it's a dictation program for word processing, but I can't be sure. I could be missing something, so don't turn away cause I said that. :)

Summary

Wonderful. I'm so glad I tried this out. I will be using it a lot in the future. :) Thanks, tazti!

"Vista & XP versions both work great"

September 6, 2008  |   By sara_thinks

Version: Tazti Speech Recognition Software for Windows 7 and Vista (32-bit) 1.1.1

Pros

I installed both the Vista and XP versions. Speech recognition for itunes, Facebook and lots of search engines (Google, Yahoo, Wikipedia, MSN, ASK, Amazon, eBay, Youtube) is absolutely fantastic. I've eliminated 1000,s of mouse clicks & keystrokes.

Cons

3 recommended training sessions takes 30 minutes.... but ultimately it's worth it cause this software works great.

Summary

Highly recommend tazti speech recognition. Lots of features I've never seen elsewhere. All features work great. And this software is free forever.I thank Voice tech Group and my fingers thank them also.

"Remarkable Speech Recognition Performance: tazti (Vista)"

June 25, 2008  |   By adamcomputes

Version: Tazti Speech Recognition Software for Windows 7 and Vista (32-bit) 1.1

Pros

East to install. Easy to use. Really works. Great speech recognition performance. Lets me navigate around Facebook & MySpace. Lets me control my iTunes software on my notebook PC when I'm at the cafe. Voice searches all of the important search engines and other web sites. Lets me create my own speech commands, even for my bookmarks. In the top 25% of best freeware/shareware I've used. Also they have a XP version that I tried. It works great too.

Cons

The only way it could be better is if they had full on dictation into Microsoft word. But that's not their bag. They are into web navigation and productivity. Those two reason are why they are a 4. But their product works like a 5. OK... I'll rate it a five because it's so much fun. I also tried their XP version and it requires a little more training and works fantastic also. The results were well worth my time.
