Overview

Let's make one thing perfectly clear.It would be an injustice if this review was not entirely done with Dragon Naturally Speaking 10.That said let's continue with the review. I am going to assume you have no prior knowledge of Dragon 10 therefore I will review it as such.

Dragon Naturally Speaking 10 is a revolutionary speech recognition software created by a company called Nuance. They have several awesome products,but Dragon 10 is by far the best.Dragon 10 comes in many different formats for different professions,such as their legal edition for legal professions and their medical edition for medical professionals.Dragon also comes in many different languages.However,we will be discussing Dragon Naturally Speaking 10 Preferred Edition. This edition has more than enough features that will help any business or entrepreneur increase productivity as well as improve the structure of the articles and documents you create.

If you have a newer version of Windows on your computer then you may have their Speech recognition software installed on your computer.If you are a Mac user then you may be familair with iListen. Whatever the case if you have used speech recognition before and have a negative impression, then clear your mind and take a second look!

When opening your package you will get 1 cd that you have to install on your computer.It can take up to 2 GB of space so make sure you have the room.Installation is generally smooth and takes about 10 minutes total.Once installed you get a cool little dragon desktop icon.Initially youj may go through a "trust phase",meaning you may talk kind of robotic because you may be worried the software won't understand you if you talk normal.Well this is what's great,their name is the truth,you can speak naturally,and still get the accuracy out of the speech recognition software.In actuality I noticed the more naturally you speak the better the software seems to understand you!

In my opinion if you can afford it,then Dragon Naturally Speaking 10 is a must have tool. Consider it a "part of doing business". Seriously.Undoubtedly if you are doing business on the internet,you know how important fresh content is to have on your web site,and also throughout the internet on other important sites to market your business.

This being the case,along with a million other things as a business owner you have to do,you have to find ways to free up time for yourself.Like they say,"time is money".That is why I believe in this product so much.

Dragon 10 allows you to literally do two things at once.I will let you in on something.I am a video gamer still to this day,and I purchased Dragon 10 with the thought in the back of my head of being able to write articles,and play video games at the same time. Well I was able to accomplish this,the only downside is that I have to keep the volume lower than I like on my tv,because Dragon10 is very sensitive to sound.

If you haven't noticed,I emphasize the fact that you can increase business productivity.Just for an example,previous to using Dragon 10 I could do two maybe three articles a day promoting several business products.After purchasing Dragon 10 I can easily do five to six a day now!

To sum it up,if you're thinking about purchasing Dragon Naturally Speaking 10 Preferred Edition,then don't hesitate.If you can purchase it now go ahead,you will always be asking yourself,why didn't I get this earlier? If productivity is the key for your business like it is for most businesses, then this software will definitely take your business to the next level!

Features

Up to 99% Speech recognition accuracy-3x faster than typing- I have had a few articles with zero errors,but generally it's words that have very similar pronunciation.Since most people average 40 words per minute typing,by using Dragon you can triple that to 120 words per minute.Dragon doesn't make spelling errors,and will "learn" your typing habits-imagine the increased productivity.

Compatible with any Microsoft Windows program-Yes that is correct.You can open all of your favorite programs with speech recognition-Microsoft Publisher,Word,Power point,Excel,and Internet Explorer,to name a few.Yes you can go on the internet without having to touch your computer.Dragon gives you total hands free voice control.

Administrative tools for large Networks-If you are a larger business or orginization then you will need more complex administrative tools.Dragon Naturally 10 accomplishes this in a couple of ways-You can centrally manage Dragon voice files,customized vocabulary files,as well as multpiple Dragon installations within your network.

Automate complex documents or repetitve article creation tasks- Dragon 10 allows you to utilize macros for large documents,signatures,repeat paragraphs,repeat phrases,and boiler plates,and not only that create any of these documents with a single voice command!

Mobile Entrepreneur friendly-If you happen to be a mobile entrepreneur who has a desire to be productive on the road as well as in the office,then Dragon 10 has a feature designed just for you! You can dictate into any Nuance certified handheld device your creative ideas,or business dealing that needs immediate attention.Once at your computer Dragon automatically transcribes your speech to text.

Dragon Naturally Speaking 10 Professional is Section 508 Certified-If you are a business entity that has a need for disability management then Dragon 10 Professional edition may be best suited for your needs.Dragon 10 Professional allows your disabled workers to continue to work,and also help with rehabilitation if it is a injury related with the use of their arms or hands such as carpal tunnel syndrome.

Perfect fit for frequent Internet Business Users-Dragon 10 has built in function called Dragon Voice Shortcuts that allow you to search the internet faster than ever! Anytime you perform a Internet web search Dragon uses your default web browser and search engine to display your results. All the major search engines such as Google,Yahoo,as well as popular sites such as Ebay,Wikipedia,and Youtube support Dragon Voice Shortcuts to name a few.

Sending Emails and scheduling appointments have never been easier-As a business owner or Entrepreneur you know how important it is to keep up with your email contacts.With Dragon it's as simple as one single voice command.For example if you are online and run into a business contact by the name of John Smith and need to send them some information,all you say is "Send email to John Smith" and Dragon 10 will open up your email program and in the send to fill will add John Smith automatically!The same applies to scheduling appointments. Simply say "schedule meeting with John Smith" and Dragon 10 will open up a new calender entry in Microsoft Outlook for you.

Handsfree Desktop Navigation-Using your Desktop for common functions such as file search,email search,web browsing history. Say "search computer for business plans" then Dragon 10 will use Google desktop or Vista desktop and perform a search for that inquiry.Email searches are performed similary,say "find a email about marketing courses" Dragon will open up the most recen email containing those keywords!
