Voice Xpress Professional review

Verdict

Combining supreme ease of use with a flexible desktop navigation system, this speech recognition suite is a match for anything on the market. Unfortunately it's flaky until patched, particularly with NT 4.

Overall Rating
5 stars out of 6

Voice Xpress Professional is a refreshingly useful program that benefits from some common-sense features. Once upgraded to a working version, it's a great performer and capable of excellent levels of accuracy after an hour's enrolment. Its dictation system is seriously useful, and desktop navigation is both intuitive and practical. Dragon's high-end offering is a lot more expensive but doesn't show any real practical benefits for the cost, so I know where I'd look for a usable speech recognition suite.
