    Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Good
    I just purchased viavoice. I read what other users mentioned about usability. It is like any new program. It involves a learning curve. I had my program running on XP. I disabled security during installation and re- enabled after installation.. You just have to tweak it for your system. I called tech support and they told me I should have brought Dragon. I decided to stay with viavoice and after voice test the software recognizes your voice. It is a good program.



    Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Via Voice
    I prefer Via Voice to Naturally Speaking. It is easy to use, has features to scan docs that I did in the past, and dictate words that are new. I find it works well and is easy to dictate to. It writes to both word and its own program, which can then be pasted into a doc. Tech support was also great! I have 3 copies I like it so much.



    Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Viavoice
    I am a little disappointed in the product. When I reboot my computer then the program will not reload. In order to use it I have to reinstall the program and then I can use it. In other words it will not work if I shut down the computer for the night.



    Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Simply Amazing!
    I can't understand why everyone doesn't use it. It didn't make my keyboard obsolete but it was a close call!

    The delivery was quick and clean. The product comes with a headset which is the same price in my local store without the voice recognition system.

    Once I read an interesting story into the computer so it could get used to my voice, the recognition was extremely good. I will never type 90 words a minute. I don't need to now. I have been speaking that fast all my life ... Read More



    Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - not very good
    Takes forever to set up. About an hour to read a story so it gets use to your voice. Your suppose to be able to save the voice recognition. I had to do a complete system restore and it would not let me put the saved recognition back, so I had to read the story again.Terrible voice recognition,very frustrating to use.
