Tasks done only with the voice, amaizing

Pros

Other activities can be done while it is possible to create a written text only with the use of the voice

Cons

It is necessary to review and edit the written texts because of some misinterpreted terms. The cost is a little bit expensive

Use Your Braina

It had a learning curve that was difficult for me, and though all the features I needed Braina had and all performed quite well, it was too pricey for me. Overall performance, however, A+ from me.

Pros

User-friendly from the outset, great accuracy and very elastic - meaning it works just as well no matter where the text is being placed; emails, blogs, social media posts, most word platforms compatible with Windows. Ambient noise seems not to interfere with Braina's transcription, another plus.

Cons

The trial version does not provide what Braina says the Pro version does, and without any proper tutorials buying Braina up front is the best way to get the service quality expected. It's a Windows-only platform right now, which means I cannot use it on my Chromebook.

Alternatives Considered

LilySpeech, SpeechTexter and Otter

Reasons for Switching to Braina

Ultimately, I chose Lily Speech for its simplicity and economy. The others I maintain as back-up platforms.

Inaccurate and clunky

The money-back guarantee is very difficult to find on the website--I actually never saw the details of it until I emailed customer support to ask. It's on me for not reading the fine print, but be warned: This is NOT a true money-back guarantee. You only get 88 percent of your investment back. That means it cost me $23.99 to try out a clunky, outdated, and functionally useless software for half a day. Yuck! The customer service was also terrible, with slow response times to email and blunt, unfriendly replies.

Pros

The software was compatible with MS Word's comment feature (I could dictate into comment bubbles).

Cons

The dashboard interface looked outdated--like something from the late nineties--and was complicated to learn. Voice commands were not intuitive. But the deal breaker to me was the quality of dictation. I tried with three different microphones: my laptop's built-in mic (which would have been most convenient), a relatively cheap headset (which is the most comfortable one I have), and a high-end gaming headset (which I would have expected to work the best). None of the mic options allowed me to dictate with any measure of precision. I do not have a strong accent, and I speak clearly and distinctly due to years of competitive speech and debate, with multiple speaker awards, including first place speaker at a national collegiate tournament. I say that not to brag but to emphasize "It's not me, it's you." The free dictation tool built in to Microsoft Word worked better than this product.

I didn't try it OVER these products; I tried it ALONGSIDE these products.

I've found Braina very powerful once you climb the learning curve of understanding how it works and what it can do.

Pros

An affordable, highly reliable and versatile voice command and dictation package.

Cons

No real on boarding tutorial. Users must read web site documentation and explore the package through trial and error.

Saves time compared to typing.

Saves time compared to typing.

Pros

Very light software. Easy to install and use. I use it to dictate emails in gmail and word. Works decently even in noisy environment. I also like the artificial brain feature which remembers information.

Cons

It opens up a speech recognition window. What you speak appears in this window and also in the software in which you are dictating. I can minimize this window and continue to dictate but i can't understand the need of providing this extra speech recognition window .
