Dragon 11 is now my new best friend! I began using Dragon 11 late April 2011. I first attempted using Dragon software last year when I installed version 10 on my desktop computer. Using Dragon 10 I encountered a great deal of difficulty, mainly related to training the system to recognize my voice pattern. Because I experienced a great deal of frustration and wasted a lot of time attempting to use Dragon 10, I discontinued using the program. When I heard Dragon 11 was available, I was hesitant to purchase the program given my previous experiences with Dragon 10. My full-time job requires a great deal of typing and given my slow typing skills I decided to give Dragon 11 a try (my job was willing to pay for Dragon 11).I have been using Dragon 11 now for approximately 4 weeks and absolutely love the program! The program has made my life much easier and I am now able to type memos, letters, proposals and other items fairly easily. I am still learning Dragon 11 shortcuts and other tips, but I am much more optimistic about the program. I am a rather slow typist, and never learned my way around the keyboard. As a result it takes me much longer than it probably should to type simple documents. I wish I had Dragon 11 when I was writing my doctoral dissertation eight years ago.
In addition to my work life, I also loaded Dragon 11 to my laptop. Having the software loaded on my laptop allows me work from home on personal projects. For example, my family and I are planning our Family Reunion for 2012. I wondered how I would be able to do all the typing needed for mailings, and other correspondence. Over the Memorial Day Holiday weekend I was able to create our first mailing using Dragon 11 and it took me a third of the time it would have if I had typed the information.
I would highly recommend Dragon 11 for anyone who needs to type documents of any kind, it will make your life so much easier and save you time! Even if you are a fast typist, Dragon will improve your productivity tenfold. I also use Dragon for iPhone and use it to write most of my Tweets.
Dragon 11 is my new best friend!
