Works Perfectly For Me

By D. Savaya
The only reason I’m reviewing this upgraded version of Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 is because of all the negative reviews I have read. To be perfectly honest, I was hesitant to install Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 because of all the problems I was reading about in the past days. I received the Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 CD almost a week ago and have not installed it for fear I would mess up my computer, LOL. Finally, after reading all the negative comments and doing a lot of research on installing the program, I crossed my fingers and took the chance.

I can say in all honesty that it installed without a hitch. I receive no error messages, no constant reboot requests, no lost user files, nothing. Everything went smoothly. I have been using Dragon NaturallySpeaking 9 preferred for the past two years and decided to upgrade because of the faster recognition and updated features. After inserting the Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 CD in the drive, the software loaded and proceeded to install. It recognized that I had a previous version installed and asked if I wanted to keep my user files for the new version. I clicked yes and the software did the rest.

I am using Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 to dictate this review right now. It is very fast and accurate as you can tell. The words appear on the page much faster than version 9. When they say it’s 20% faster, I think that is accurate. I am also noticing many less errors in recognizing my words. I’m not sure if that’s because of my extensive user file or simply because the software is better.

If you are on the fence about purchasing Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10, you can wait for an updated version or do what I did and upgrade now. I’m glad I did even though there were so many discouraging reviews on Amazon and other websites. My experience was trouble-free and I hope yours will be also if you purchase and eventually install Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10.

changed my life!

I have never written a review before but I have to say that Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 is one of the best things that I’ve ever bought. I am a terrible typer and this allows me to write reports about twice as fast and without all the headache of correction. I almost didn’t buy Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 because of all of the terrible reviews on Amazon.com.

It seems that if you are using Vista, or are an English as a 2nd language student, or have a very old computer then you might have problems using Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10. I have 2 GB of RAM on 2005 HP Pavilion laptop running XP

I understand that people are not happy with tech support but I have yet to use it. Also when loading Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 I also faced a C++ error message that was a headache but I was able to fix it with a simple Google search.

Last year I had my Mac stolen, but now I couldn’t be happier because now I can use Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 on my new XP, that I couldn’t have used if I still had a Mac.

I’m using Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 to type this review and I would say that it has made perhaps 2 errors, but that is understandable given that sometimes I speak quickly and there is some ambiguity in what I’m writing.

I can honestly say that Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 has changed my life. I love my job now!

A great piece of software

I’ve been a (very happy) user of Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 Preferred in the last days.
I have an average PC (Dell with 1MB RAM, 2.8GHZ Pentium) with XP Pro and I did not have any problem installing as others reported.
Since the beginning, when I created my user voice profile, I did 4/5 minutes of training right away. I don’t know if that’s the main reason but already at the end of the training I had great results. Not sure I’d get the same without the training. Anyway, next money I’ll spend will be for a better microphone…
I also tried some of the search commands (new in version 10) just to have some fun.
For example you can say “search Amazon for italian wine” and few seconds later Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 shows you the results.
But it’s dictation where Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 shows the muscles…
Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 is fast, accurate, smart… sometimes it really surprises you when at the first attempt he manages to get correctly words that you would think difficult.

My roommate is a Harvard student and he comes back from his lessons with a lot of notes that, eventually, he needs to put in a “better shape”.
When he saw me using Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 he wanted to try it. Now he is hooked.
He says that to transcribe his notes, even if he consider himself a decent typewriter, he can save at least 50-60% of his time dictating with Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10. He says that just because of that, he would pay the software 2 or 3 times more and it would be still a bargain.
