Talk to Your Computer

Create/edit documents, send/receive emails, and surf the Internet -- HANDS FREE

Dragon allows you to dictate up to 160 words per minute! If you had to type a 900-word document, it could take nearly 20 minutes even for a fast typist. With Dragon Software, the same document can be created in just 6 minutes!

Access Technologies, Inc. has been a Premier, Authorized and Certified training Partner of Nuance for over 20 years.

Dragon makes it easy to control popular programs like Microsoft Word, Outlook, Excel and PowerPoint; move about your desktop, and work on the Web. . . all with your voice - Up to three times faster than typing.

Studies show individuals who receive hands-on training when starting with voice recognition software are more successful with the program and are more likely to continue using the program than those who don't.

Sure you can use Dragon right out of the box, as some of the features are simple and intuitive, but many incorporate numerous powerful features. Learning to use these features within your other software applications can often be overwhelming, intimidating, and frustrating. At that point, your voice recognition program itself becomes a barrier.
