Love Ex-Text - easy to learn
nm
I love ExText. Why do you say run? It is fast, easy to use sm
and my line counts are right on the money (verified often).

General statements can be misleading. Just because YOU had a bad experience, why tell people to run from a platform that is used by literally thousands and hospitals????
It's easy to learn...

Not sure what kind of advice you're looking for... I don't think you should be freaking out.  It's the best platform I've ever used and it's very easy to learn.  I'm sure this isn't giving you anything helpful, but not sure what you want to know. 


 


I usually do it the hard way too, but I learn the easy
way in the process usually.    We have to remember that computers are only machines - LOL. 
Bayscribe is very easy to learn.
The training lasted about 1-1/2 hours, but most of that was installing it.  The trainer went over a few functions and the rest is in the manual, which is very easy.  I went from DocQScribe to Bayscribe without any problem.  Bayscribe doesn't have a lot of bells and whistles, but it works well.  Everything is on 1 screen (all the demographics).  I have no problem making my counts on it.
I found it very easy to learn and like V8 even more. sm
I felt comfortable within a half an hour. The demographics are even easier on the version 8 (newest upgrade) and most of them are filled in for you with very little need to make changes.  Once you learn the shortcuts the editing becomes second nature.  My suggestion is to practice them one or two at a time until your fingers do them automatically and then move on to adding to your shortcuts and eventually you'll be using them all as second nature as normal typing.  I do about 90% editing and 10% typing and I'm happy with that mixture, sometimes more, sometimes less. I make more than double my lines with editing so the decreased pay per line equals more than I do with straight typing.  Of course there are days that are the exception and I get a lot more edits than usual and it brings my counts down but on a majority of days I will do about 550-600 lines editing and typing about 220 lines per hour, on a comfortable working hour.
Their platform is easy to learn...
Softscript's work interface is three-fold: a proprietary report client which downloads, uploads, and retrieves ADT; an audio player in the background; and MS Word which automatically opens the report for you--all you do in Word is type and save. I don't see why Instant Text wouldn't work; MS Word itself has a similar auto-replace function as well.
The platform is Scribe. EASY to learn and use.
The line count is straight 65 characters with spaces and you can see your count which is important to me.

Today is supposed to be my day off. I needed to do a bunch of errands and catch up and do closets. So far, it's almost 10:30 and I have been on here all morning! I need to scoot!
very easy to learn - good platform
I have worked on a few different platforms and this one works well. Very explicit account specifics as well so it makes it much easier to do your job.
Platform is fairly easy to learn, pay is

low/average, trainers/supervisor are helpful (at least the ones I've dealt with have been), bennies 35+ weeks.


This is Dictaphone's ExText and very easy to learn. Have

Don't know, but similar to typical and very easy to learn. NM

Platform super easy to learn
I had heard horror stories about SoftScript before I accepted the job (realized you can't believe everything and took a chance). I gave them a shot and have been thrilled. The platform is super easy compared to some of the other Nationals I have worked for. Pay is a about 8 cpl, but that seems standard for Nationals. Tons of work.

I would recommend SoftScript to anyone and I have worked for the worst, MQ, Transcend, Medsribe, etc.
easy to learn, but not good for productivity

Medrite is very easy to learn, transcription friendly...nm

Just started it last month. It is nice and easy to learn
as long as you have experience with ExText or ExSpeech....All the things I thought were flukey with ExSpeech have now been corrected in EX Editor. You will enjoy it.
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.
ChartScript easy to learn/use/good line count?

Please post any experiences you have had with this platform. Also,does Diskriter provide good insurance and have plenty of work?


Is it easy to get required line counts?


I like Vianeta. Easy to use and fast.
Good support with my co
Chartscript is easy. Fast. VPN and Iplayer No big deal.
WAY better than Extext.
Anyone know of a company, easy clinic work, easy Word format, dependable pay? Help!

Great place - ExText is easy to learn and user friendly. Good pay. Nice, COMPETENT people.

It is easy once you are used to it. I love it! xx

Yes, I use it and love it. No problems, easy
a real breeze. Highly recommend it. They have a 30 day free trial - try it out and see how you like it. I wouldn't work as an IC without it.
Yeah, I love them too, except the real easy ones are being

I was down about the account last week but now love it. It was easy to get used to. The first sm
day was really rough, the second was a just as bad but 2 weeks into it and I really like it. My counts are good too, averaging right around 1400 lines a day, which is good for these old fingers. Docuscribe is great, but I have worked on it before for the big Q.
Platform very easy and quick - easy to get used to. :)

I love ExText, others don't. It'll eat a report once in a while, but otherwise it's easy to

Also love ExText even though the line counts can be low. Easy to use! nm

I agree. I am only part time so far, but I love it. The platform is easy, and sm

the people are great.  I feel very fortunate to have stumbled onto them.



WordPerfect vs. Word - similar? Is WordPerfect easy to learn? OK with both on one PC? Thanks. nm

I love it here; easy platform, plenty of work, great communication
@@@
I love it! Nothing like the old blue screen Meditech. User friendly and easy to use! sm
I also get paid gross line, which helps, but very easy to use!
agree, IMEs are great $$, easy reports, miss them, would love to find them

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.
