Q: The subscription fee for Dragon Professional Anywhere seems expensive. Where can I see the return on investment with this solution?

A: Users can either purchase an annual or monthly subscription to Dragon Professional Anywhere. The software can be used on any Windows PC or tablet (within three minutes) and little strain on the machine's CPU (more about this later). This essentially means you can use speech recognition on any device, anywhere with the highest levels of accuracy as your voice profile is stored in the 'cloud'. 

For those with reservations regarding cost here is some context: for the same price as a monthly subscription to Dragon Pro Anywhere (UNLIMITED USAGE), a transcription service will provide text documents transcribed from only 18 minutes worth of dictation with a 24-hour turnaround period. For those outsourcing their transcription, this is an ideal cost and time-saving alternative. 

 

Dragon Professional Anywhere provides massive ROI compared to outsourcing transcription

 

Q: What am I able to do with Nuance Dragon Professional Anywhere?

A: Dragon Pro Anywhere allows you to create documents via front-end speech recognition. Users are able to dictate directly into their PC and receive an instant transcription of their speech.

Users are able to create custom commands and import specialist vocabulary to streamline documentation and improve overall accuracy. The bottom line: if your work requires you to create large amounts of documentation, this solution will save you a lot of time. 

 

Q: Speech Recognition in 'The Cloud' - is Dragon Professional Anywhere secure and is my data safe?

Q: What are the minimum system requirements?

Q: Who is Dragon Professional Anywhere NOT for?

For users who want to make use of background recognition (where the software transcribes a pre-recorded audio file into a text document) users should opt for the locally installed product Dragon Professional Individual.
