Product Description
Manufacturer's Description
Millions of users turn to Dragon each day to make PC interaction easier, faster and more fun. Users can dictate and edit in virtually any Windows application, including Microsoft Word, Microsoft Outlook Express, Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox and AOL. This revolutionary and easy to use product gives users everything they need to get started, including a high-quality headset.
Most accurate version EVER: Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 is up to 15% more accurate than the previous version and delivers accuracy rates of up to 99 % right out of the box. Every time an individual uses Dragon and corrects their recognition errors, the software updates their user profile to enable better recognition accuracy over time.
Works With the Applications Users Already Have. Users can dictate directly into most Microsoft Windows XP, Windows 2000, and Windows-Vista-based applications. Dragon supports popular programs such as Microsoft Word, Corel WordPerfect, Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Outlook Express and AOL. Users can even control menus and dialog boxes in these applications. Navigate the desktop by voice: launch or switch applications, save or print documents, and more - all by voice.
NEW User Interface. Dragon 10 introduces new graphical icons to enhance the DragonBar user interface, making the product even easier to use.
Add Custom Words. Users can quickly add custom words, such as proper names, to the system's vocabulary.
NEW Quick Voice Formatting commands allow users to issue a single voice command, such as "Bold Quick Voice Formatting" to make editing and formatting text faster than ever. In addition, unique Natural Language Commands mean users don't have to memorize complex instructions. In Word, for example, a user can say, "make that bigger," and the font size increases instantly.
Punctuation. Users may select the "Nothing but Speech" natural punctuation feature so that punctuation is automatically entered into documents and messages.
Browse the Internet with Ease. Users can search the Web, access information and navigate Web pages, simply by speaking URLs and links.
Faster than Typing. Most people speak up to 160 words per minute but type less than 40 words a minute. That means users can create documents and email messages more than three times faster using Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 Standard. The software never makes a spelling mistake, and it actually gets smarter the more it's used.
Fun and Easy to Use - Get Started Right Away. Dragon NaturallySpeaking installs quickly and requires no special script reading. New on-screen help and tutorials help users become experts in no time. Users can dictate letters and emails instantly! A comfortable, high-quality headset is included.
Avoid Repetitive Strain Injuries. By using voice to control the PC and create documents, users reduce their risk of developing repetitive strain injuries, such as carpal tunnel syndrome.

I was a little sceptical about this product. I tried an earlier version of dragon's software about five years ago, and I wasn't impressed by the speed or accuracy of the particular package that I used.
However, I've been absolutely blown away by Dragon version 10. I installed the Standard version on my XP machine about one hour ago and, after running through some very simple training exercises, I have been able to dictate entire paragraphs of text with virtually no errors. In fact, I have just been able to dictate this entire review in significantly less time than it would have taken me to type it by hand (i'm a reasonably proficient typist, averaging around 40-50 wpm).
Overall, I am delighted with my purchase, and I wholeheartedly recommend Dragon version 10.
(edit: I should mention that I use a desktop USB microphone from Logitech, as I found the free headset to be a little uncomfortable).

I was using this effectively within 1 hour of installation by the second day I was creating 600 word documents quickly and with few errors which were easily corrected. Voice Recognition Software now works. I will never be without it now! I will buy a more comfortable headset with noise cancelling - the included set works fine but was too tight for my head.

I bought this version in helping me with certain issues I have as regards typing and other things as I have disabilities which is the main reason for my purchase, in fact I am writing this review with this software. I also found to my surprise that I can use it while I am playing world of Warcraft as it started a game for me and I was able to use in game chat while playing the game. So in retrospect this version actually does more than what it's capable of &what it specifications says it can do.
So all in all this has been a very good purchase so much it has given me more freedom and flexibility than the previous version did. So even buying the standard version you get more than what you think in what it controls as far as applications, games etc. I don't think, you'll find better software out there that can do as much as this software for the price.
I received this software 12:00 today and as you can see how easily and quickly it is adapted to my voice.

I had an earlier version of this years ago. To be honest then it was pretty much a gimmick and didn't really cope with what I was trying to do. Read more

Dragon Dictate
Very good. Works well with normal voice but if you slow down very slightly, (still doing 100+ words a minute), is nearly 100% accurate. Read more

Dragon Natually Speaking
This application takes quite a long time to install. The instructions are very poor on how to use this application after you have installed it. It is good value for what it can do.

Great for text, but not quite there on the other contols
This is very close to being a great bit of software.
It is certainly very useful for producing long blocks of text, if you are not a 50 words a minute touch typist. Read more
