AnyModal is alive and well and quite easy to work

Posted By: Rockin 2 on 2009-08-01
In Reply to: It was an old platform that, I believe is long gone. - Hail Cornerstone.

with if you have an IT department on the ball enough to make it work with your regular platform.  The only thing it doesn't do very well is formats, it's not much for left justifying but otherwise it actually helps with the bad dictators.  Plus, it's good for a laugh now and then.  I don't mind it anymore.  I mind the low pay rate but if I can get 3200-3500 lines a day on it, I can pay bills.  The first 6 months we had it, it was a nightmare.  Now that it's been in operation a year, it's not so bad.

Never heard of AnyModal
I work for Spheris but have never heard of AnyModal. Spheris has their own system, Cornerstone, which a lot of people hate, but I don't mind at all. I have no serious problems with it; however, I don't advise anyone to get a job here, because there really isn't much to brag about with this company.
The actual program behind it is AnyModal Edit, sm
It is hard to make money on anything that uses AnyModal Edit. I went from one company with it, to Transcend who says they use BeyondTXT, but once I got started turned out it was the same program in the background for editing, AnyModal Edit. Don't be fooled, it is very hard to get a good line count with this program. I can straight type 250-300 words per hour easily, but in this program for VR struggle to get 150 lines per hour, you have to edit a lot, this program is awful and it's faster to type most of the reports.
QT is alive and well. I'm not in my office right now, sm
but I'll come back with the info you need.
Alive and well and not hiring.

It Appears Censorship is Alive and Well...
here on the MT boards , as my post in reply in this thread has disappeared.
This sounds like a Lee post. She's here alive and kicking.
And she won't go away. Unprofessional and not changing.
Yep. Guess racisim is alive and well. Sigh.
The misconceptions are overwhelming, aren't they? People really do need to open their minds and their eyes and educate themselves. This is why my relatives in New Zealand and England make fun of Americans, for being too afraid to travel and enjoy the rest of the world. Guess some folks just feel safer hiding under their little rocks at home waiting for the big, bad Muslims to come and get them. So sad.

Can you imagine if our ancestors had been too afraid to come to America? My family arrived in 1640, and raised tobacco in the original Jamestown settlement. Hardly a safe haven back then. Thank goodness I come from such stock. I've enjoyed visits to so many different places, met so many different cultures, it makes me sad for people who are scared into the corner by boogie-men.

Anyway, this is a fine opportunity for the right person. Racists and bigots need not apply.
Work is easy, very nice owner, pays weekly, work in Word.

very easy to work with - sm
I have not had any problems with this software (knock on wood).
They offshore. That's where all the easy work goes.
All that's left for U.S. MTs is ESL and difficult dictations.
Supposed to be easy work, but you won't ever get more than 8 cpl. How it was, anyway..nm
s
Old posts said easy to work for, but your pay would never go over 7 or 8 cpl depending on
s
I make that much $ too but i work very hard. Its possible, not easy.

Yes they can put them to work on easy stuff, such as clinic
NM
Can you say where you work where it's so easy to make your lines? All I come across is crap out
s
I work on Scribe...very easy to get lines in my opinion...
money is also decent...
Not so easy when you make top pay and work days and hours of
xx
Platform is easy to use, and the people are great to work with. sm
I only work there part-time, but I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone.  Good luck on whatever you decide. 
I love it. It is fast, easy to learn and easy to use.

TT has plenty of work. The platform is super easy to learn and
I'm not having any trouble at all making good line counts doing ESL discharge summaries. Super nice people as well.
Nice people, easy clinic work, leave you alone, but low pay. nm

They use Dictaphone EX Text platform. Very user friendly and easy to work on.
It is all strictly internet based. No extra phone lines required. They do reimburse your high speed internet up to I think $40 a month, too.
I love it here; easy platform, plenty of work, great communication
@@@
Because people only want specific work types, easy dictators and certain hours...
That is why some people find a shortage of work, while others find an abundance. I cannot believe these last few threads and the vitriole of some of your responses. Any time a company is mentioned, any company, there are always a bunch of negative responses.

Maybe you all should check within yourselves to find out why you do not have enough work.

I happen to work for a company that is being negatively mentioned in these posts, and I am extremely happy. They may offshore, but they treat me very well, are communicative and I have never missed a paycheck. I also will do any work types, ESL, and will help out extra when asked. This is one of my first times on this board and I probably will not be back.
Easy platform, assigned accounts, always plenty of work. Great OM and boss. nm

Platform very easy and quick - easy to get used to. :)
.
how do we work it? Easy answer - work for another company. That happened with the company
I was working for. I would wake up at 4 a.m. AND ON THE WEEKENDS TOO because they needed "coverage" supposedly and I would sit until 9:30 or noon without any work. Sorry, but my rent of $1450/month could not be paid with only $57/day. So I got another job and when I got the equipment and everything, then I quit for the other employer.
Easy platform, PTO if you are employee, production incentive, direct deposit, work flow varies on
different accounts, but usually have enough to keep busy, lots of QA feedback.
I'm with them. Good work environment, easy accounts and I'm making really good money. nm

It's just not easy to do for most of us. nm
,
Does anyone else think it is just as easy to go to a different
company as it is to learn new account at the same time you are learning a new platform that has a lot of problems? 
easy to put an end to it all
Doesn't matter if QT says they are not closing or not selling, it is all in what the account decides what will force the hand.  You have one big account, lose one big account, you do the math. 
It's VERY easy
All that you do is hit F6 and it brings up all of the old report. As far as I can tell, they go back about a year.
easy as pie
Super easy and I find it super fast.  Check out www.escription.com
I cannot tell you how easy it is to get someone's SS#
and have a grand time with it! Try explaining it to the hospitals that want to outsource to certain national companies that don't do a background check on employees or that the threat to take SS# just by when doctors dictate them is easy - can you imagine how easy it is for the offshore companies to do it. If I can do it in the states working for a national company, imagine what the offshore companies can do!
EASY
I was wondering the same thing. The ad said It is easier to edit than type, and they pay hourly. I don't like their choice of words though. Neither is EASY. It all takes skill. I, too, am curious--Who is TMMG?
Its not easy being a
You're right the girl probably didn't have a clue of how poorly she was doing and thats not playing fair. However, training is not easy. Companies don't want to lose people, especially if they're not paying them much, soooo you're stuck being positive positive positive even when the work is horrible, and people tend to get offended at the least little bit of feedback. Its a bit of a squishy position and at times the person training has to go to great lengths to justify their own position. Not easy I assure you. I for one was told I was sending too much feedback, apparently learning how to do things right was not at the top of these MTs list. You cannot completely blame the trainer, but management who lets the MT call the shots.
Easy. NM

Not the OP, ...is it easy to set up?
Do you have to buy anything other than the router? I have comcast cable and already have a router...just don't know what to do with it.
Easy.
You need to go in and put in the BKSP command where the number goes and back the hyphen right up to the command you then you eliminate the 105 painful times you need to enter!! A snap!

It's not as easy to do that now as it used to be sm
If you're SE or IC, you can do that, but with most companies going to employee, MT can only work 40 hours and if one can't count on working extra, which goes into overtime and not always offered, it makes having just one job not feasible if MT wants to make X amount of dollars in as much time as it takes her/him.

I wish I could just do one job with OT when offered, but I really need the security of having the PT to get what I need to make ends meet.
I'm sorry. I must have it easy there, which SM
is reason I, unfortunately, can't leave.

I really feel badly for you. Sadly, that's why company has the reputatation it does. They are more concerned about happiness of offshore MTs.
Easy. Take a job anywhere. It will be prn because
there will be no work. They will want you to type prn but demand you live up to a line count and schedule they will not promise work to fill, thus it ends up prn for you, and great for them. Sorry, just the facts. Imagine a company that was honest and actually hired for prn. There's never be anything comparing what it is like for full time or part time these days. JIMHO
Very easy---
go into program files, find ShortHand file, click on that, that is where all the things are. Go to the SPF files, find which one you have your abbreviations in, you had to have named it something (you can check the opened shorthand and look at the tab on the bottom that shows what you use for your abbeviations), copy that file (I use a fast whatchamacall it that you plug in) or you can copy in a separate file until you can copy it to a removeable file, just paste it somewhere, then when you want to copy it to another computer with the Shorthand program on it, just paste it in the shorthand file (like where you copied it from on the other computer). When you open up the Shorthand file, you will have to click on the new shorthand files and add it so it will put a tab at the bottom.
So easy to say that when not you
The poster said she made good money and needed the job. It is the lady's job and she calls the shots. Sure the person can quit and cut off her nose to spite her face. That is just business.
Thats easy for you to say
Thats easy for you to say when you are getting offered 8 and 9 cpl. I am just testing and testing and testing and testing and not even getting offered anything.  I need work and if I am offered 7 cpl typing for 1 or 2 dictators I will take it because you can still make money at that.  I don't mind working 2 jobs because that way you always have something to type. 
It is easy once you are used to it. I love it! xx

Test Was Easy

BUT if you don't have years of experience you won't be hired by them.
