Dragon NaturallySpeaking Premium 11 Student Edition [Old Version]

The product arrived quickly and in very good packaging. Dragon loaded quickly. This version works much better/fewer errors in voice recognition than older versions. Id recommend buying.

I am a happy customer of Dragon 10. I bought the student edition of 11 for a student friend. I was shocked and embarassed by the process of trying to register the product. You know how much you hate those refund processes which seem like a scam designed to cause you to fail? Well, that is what this feels like. You need to provide a complete description of yourself, your school, scanned copies of your student ID, scanned copy of paperwork from the college showing your studentship to be current. And the icing on the cake? You are going to send all this stuff to a third party who appear to be outside the USA and tell you it may take up to 30 days. The instructions are tedious and strict, and the follow up emails if they do not like what you send are abrupt and unfriendly. Yeah, really nice. I like Dragon 10. I am totally shocked that Dragon have such a nasty process for the Student Edition. Especially as this was a gift for another person, it has been an embarrassing and unpleasant experience. And, the product still is not usable, you do not get a code to activate the product until this third party is finished grilling you. Nuance should be ashamed to go to a third party and allow their customers to be introduced to Nuance in such a way. A Student Edition only exists because Nuance wants to make a good relationship with a new customer. What were they thinking? Such a shame that their technical nous is not matched by a friendly approach to customers.

I purchased a product from them that I know is good, but I have been having lots of difficulty with their support department trying to verify information for us in order for a proper serial number to be sent to us. This is absolutely ridiculous how many days and nights we are waiting for our product to be handled by them. They dont give us alternatives on what to do and how they will kindly take care of us and resolve this issue. I will never purchase any of their future products again. Very poor service!!! Every company that ever handled anything for us purchased online has always been very successful in helping us resolve the issue.

Ordered on the 12th of Feb. Here it is the night of the 25th of Feb. Still no product. Must be on a real slow boat from China!! I would love to review the product....but I cant do it when I dont have it!!!!!

Okay, I have to admit I was a little bit miffed when I first got the product and realized I had to go through a bunch of hoops to verify my student identity. However, I made one quick call to the company and they took care of this problem immediately by e-mailing me a unlock code. After this it was a simple matter of installing the program, dictating a few sample paragraphs, and then going to work. I was amazed at the accuracy of the program after only a few minutes of use. It had no problem picking out and spelling words such as cardiomyopathy, left atrial myxoma, and other very specific medical terms. As part of the installation process, it does review your documents on your computer and this may explain its ability to recognize all the specific medical terms that I use frequently. However, I have found that it even recognizes medical terms that I know I have not used previously. I have never used prior versions of Dragon so I cannot comment on the difference between prior versions. All I can say is that this program has worked excellent for me so far.

Despite having an accent, I was able to use this product very well. It is a good learner and was able to pick up my professional lingo simply by analyzing my e-mail and documents folder. Was able to use right out of the box...

As other reviewers have said, it is impossible to verify the software for the student edition. Had to return it to amazon after many failed emails and calls to try get it verified. Worthless if I cant use it!

i have a question about this, my son is a student at highschool in nj, and i am a principal at a school in nj. my question is can we get the student teacher discounted price.

I never write reveiws. After reading the strong negatives regarding the registration process, I had to write to about my experience. VERY FAST AND EASY WITH AN EDU EMAIL ACCOUNT. The serial number was IMMEDIATELY emailed. It took me less than 5 mins. to register and recieve my serial number. It took another 5 mins. to download it and I am off an running. I plan on using it for my dissertation. Will post an update.

works very good, quality product, and fast service, thank you
