Reviews of the IBM ViaVoice Pro USB Edition 10
-
CNET Review
The Good: ViaVoice 10 is affordable, works with Macs, and offers decent voice recognition and customizable macros.
The Bad: ViaVoice 10's setup is prone to glitches, its voice-command recognition is uneven, its technical support is pricey, and it is not entirely hands-free.
The Bottom Line: ViaVoice is an affordable, if buggy, program for basic speech-to-text dictation. To avoid using your hands, however, we recommend the Windows-only Dragon NaturallySpeaking 8.
Manufacturer: Nuance Communications, Inc.
Part number: G909A-G00-10.0
