Scansoft is now nuance - new name new products

Previously known as Scansoft, Nuance is rapidly becoming known as the leader in voice recognition software, offering a variety of business office solutions to more efficiently handle daily duties. From fast voice recognition and optical character recognition, Nuance is making life in the office world simpler.


Dictaphone healthcare products are becoming essential to hospitals, doctor offices and clinics by providing the option of eliminating transcription services. Medical professionals can eliminate this high cost as well as the time for turn around with the manual transcription of patient records. Better voice recognition means more accurate voice to text translation and the new dragon naturally speaking software is proving to be more accurate.


When voice recognition software first hit the market it had to be trained to understand the user’s voice pattern. Mistakes were common and the person dictating sat in front of the computer screen trying to make corrections as they went. Since people typically speak at about 120 words per minute and type, on average, 40 words per minute, an accurate speech recognition software can enable you to be far more productive.


Accuracy is especially important in medical transcription as many words may sound alike but have completely different meanings. Nuance speech recognition software can receive speech from different sources such as you voice, digital recorder or handheld device with voice recording capability. You will be able to record your comments at any time and then play them into your dragon speech recognition software for transcription.


Additionally, many versions of speech recognition software would recognize only one person’s voice when being used. While using dragon naturally speaking software, different people can use the same software without the need to retrain the software each time a different voice is heard by the dragon.


Working with Dragon speech recognition software and dictation software, the need for optical character recognition has continued to expand and become more inclusive to enable any image to be scanned into the application of your choice. Scansoft imaging software allows the input of charts and spreadsheets for editing and updating.


In addition to optical character recognition and speech recognition software, file conversion for PDF files makes Nuance products the complete business solutions package available. Being able to scan PDF documents into your favorite application software free to be edited and integrated into your presentation or simply saved in your favorite format, makes Scansoft-Nuance products more valuable in reducing the time and effort normally associated with file exchange.


Other products are available to enable the scanning of PDF documents into other software applications, maintaining formatting of columns and rows while placing them into your documents. The advance technology of optical character reading provides a more accurate rendering of letters and numbers.
