Dragon NaturallySpeaking 8 Professional will save you and your organization money because it enables everyone to create documents up to four times faster than typing and protects against repetitive stress injuries like carpal tunnel syndrome that increase insurance premiums and temporary labor costs.

It's simple: you and your employees can use Dragon NaturallySpeaking 8 Professional to create documents and e-mails, write reports and fill out forms, without having to type at all. Dragon NaturallySpeaking 8 Professional is fully integrated in the Microsoft Office applications you use: Word, Excel, Outlook and PowerPoint. In fact, it works with just about any Windows application.

You can dictate directly into a PC, or be productive on-the-go with dictation into a ScanSoft certified handheld device such as a digital recorder, Pocket PC or Palm Tungsten. It's easy to have Dragon NaturallySpeaking automatically transcribe recorded dictations when you synch with your PC. If your organization is ready to dramatically improve efficiency and lower costs, contact ScanSoft or any certified Dragon NaturallySpeaking reseller today!

Key Benefits:

Dragon NaturallySpeaking® 8 Professional enables professional PC users to create and edit documents and e-mails, fill out forms, and streamline workflow tasks-all by speaking! Talk to your computer and your words instantly and accurately appear in the full Microsoft® Office® Suite, plus Corel® WordPerfect®, Lotus® Notes®, and virtually all other Windows®-based applications.

  • More Accurate Than Ever Before
    With a 25% increase in accuracy, Dragon NaturallySpeaking® 8 is up to 99% accurate and frequently more accurate than typing.
     
  • Faster Than Typing
    Most people speak over 160 words per minute, but type less than 40 words a minute. That means you can create documents and e-mails about three times faster with Dragon NaturallySpeaking 8 Professional. The results are higher productivity, less reliance on support staff, and lower costs.
     
  • Safer Than Typing
    Dragon NaturallySpeaking 8 Professional will help protect people in your organization from repetitive stress injuries like carpal tunnel syndrome - injuries that can cost tens of thousands of dollars in insurance premiums and temporary labor costs. Dragon NaturallySpeaking 8 Professional is Section 508 certified, and designed to meet all your disability management needs.
     
  • Easy To Use
    Simply install the Dragon NaturallySpeaking CD, and in just a few minutes, you'll be creating documents, e-mails and filling out forms by voice! We even include a free noise-canceling microphone.
     
  • Network Ready
    Install and manage Dragon NaturallySpeaking 8 Professional from a central network location. You can even access your unique Dragon NaturallySpeaking 8 Professional "profile" from any PC on your organization's local area network.
