Easy-to-use foot pedal

Transcription from a Phillips digital voice recorder works well once you become familiar with the complex process involved. The foot pedal is easy to use. What's missing is an easy way to dump keyboard playback into a separate Word document. It took me half a day to get this procedure working.

Pros
  • Receiving dictation files via email or FTP server
Cons
  • Some disadvantages

Good product for portable audio and video

After initial difficulties importing audio files I found this software and foot pedal to work well. I had to call their toll-free customer support line because the import process wasn't intuitive. Their customer service hours are limited but they have been very helpful. There are many options to customize how the product works and I just use them. I didn't like the earbuds under my chin but I only use an old pair.

Pros
  • Ergonomic foot pedal and stereo headphones for efficient transcription
Cons
  • Unbelievable price

It seems that the license will eventually expire no matter what!

Bought several of these programs for my business. You'll need to deactivate the license on the old computer before installing it on the new computer, which is understandable. However, if that old computer were to crash, there doesn't seem to be a way to speak to anyone at Philips to reset it. this in turn because the process is constant. Spent 20 minutes on the phone with Philips before speaking to someone who had no idea Philips sold this product. She stopped me and said she found the right…

Pros
  • PC transcription software for basic dictation and transcription work
Cons
  • Poor manual

Not yet usable for portable audio and video

I bought this through Olympus because the Olympus documentation wasn't clear if it works on Win 8.1 or not , he said yes. I had an Olympus a few years ago and loved it. I don't like the pedal layout as much as the old one. The middle one is too small, so it's too easy to accidentally step on the side pedals to turn it on or off. (My wife uses it 95% of the time and she doesn't complain about it). My biggest problem is that I installed the software on my laptop to try it out and then installed…

Pros
  • The main application window shows a clear overview of all files and dictation properties
Cons
  • Big and bulky
