This has its own benefits and drawbacks, the biggest of which is that you can never be exactly like the voice that was inserted into the software, which means that your accent may vary from what you actually speak. Nuance on the other hand requires you to first insert a clip of your own voice into the program in order to have it recognize your voice. With Dragon, you just have to speak the sentence that is being translated, and it will automatically recognizes your voice and play back the appropriate accent. The biggest difference between Dragon Naturally Speaking and Nuance lies in the voice recognition.

Dragon automatically adjusts its settings to match your current environment so that there is no need to tweak anything to make it work with your Windows environment. It is very similar to Nuance, but since both programs are designed for Windows, the compatibility should be almost 100%. Unlike speech to text translators, Dragon automatically recognizes the meaning of the words while reading them, thus eliminating the need for you to do so yourself. Dragon Naturally Speaking is a new dictation software that works by reading text out loud for you.
