I have WP 10 and I like it. User friendly. sm
I've used MS Word too, but there really isn't that much difference and its easy to learn.
Very user friendly
Although I was a newbie at the time, after finishing a MT course, they first had me on Dictaphone and then trained us on Escription/Edit Script. It was much, much easier than Dictaphone and any MT with experience would find it very easy to use. There really is not that much training needed---just to learn the commands, which is included in the tutorial. It really is a great platform.
How user friendly is it really?

It is very user friendly...
...I think you'll like it. Good luck!
Yep, VERY user friendly...
You'll be up and running into no time. :-)
I don't think it is very user friendly - sm
I used it for a day I think and then quit, hated it. Too many steps up to actually working and it was just a pain in the butt to use. There are many platforms that are much better than EMDAT.
very user friendly, productive ...
i was disappointed my lines didn't increase more dramatically over old system -- but there was an increase. I like it well enough i hope i never have to use another system. Maybe the 'decrease' in lines others report is due to messing around on the internet instead of working, as 2 minutes here and there really can add up...
software that is user friendly (sm)
I'm not sure of the difference between software and a platform, but I just want to work for a company whose program is easy to work on, not a lot of glitches, freezes, server problems, etc. etc. That defeats the whole purpose of what we were hired to do - TRANSCRIBE. Also when there is a problem, it would be nice to have someone be able to help you quickly.
Which platforms do you find to be the most user friendly . . . sm
and allow you to be more productive? Your input is greatly appreciated!
Invoice program - user friendly
I currently use Abacus for line counting. I need a separate program for line counting and hourly work that is very user friendly. Any advice?
The newest version is VERY user friendly. The one right before
it stunk. Make sure you're getting to work on one that has the very newest version that came out this fall.
I love BeyondText. User friendly
are pulled in with a simple search. I was making my minimum line counts by the end of the first week.
Is their platform user friendly, or does it depend on the account?

I have tried both. Smartype is user friendly, easy to learn. I'd use it again.

VR program. Very user-friendly and easy to learn.

One week of working on a new platform and I do not feel it is user-friendly
Editing itself is not bad. It is the documentation of the changes I made, I think for purposes of feedback to MT, which I have to do on Word (outside of the platform) that is driving me crazy and is eating up a lot of time. I do not think I am being productive. I am paid an hourly rate but I am almost embarrassed with my production. I think doing QA without going the through the MTing using the same platform presents a lot of difficulty. Is it too early to decide whether this is a good fit for me?
Is ExText user friendly? Can you make good lines?
I will be using a foot pedal - ? Transnet.
I'm using Meditech Magic now and I can't imagine anything being worse.
Has anyone used IntraScript or I-Scriptor as a platform? User-friendly, productive? Any comments?

ExSpeech
I am so glad to hear that. We were told that this system can be "trained". So far, I think that is wrong. How many reports must you type to "train". We are about 8 days behind and sinking fast. The rest of us have not trained on it yet, early fall. I am not sure what there intention is and what the benefit is of having this system. We were within 2 days TAT before all this started. Very frustrating!!!! Told to hang in there, it will get better. 
No, it is not at all ! TT uses ExSpeech. nm

ExSpeech question....sm
Is ExSpeech the VR software that has no footpedal and everything is done using specific keys on the keyboard?
Thanks
I use Dictaphone's ExSpeech which I think is...
their VR version of ExText. I am not familiar with eScription, but when I asked the question below, it seems as though people thought ExSpeech/ExText was a clunkier platform.
No MQ....on Dictaphone ExSpeech tho.
nm
In EXSpeech, I use magic punctation, does anyone know....
if I hit alt . it will place the period and capitalize the next letter. But if I use alt , it will take out the period but keep the next letter of the next word capitalized. Why doesn't it lower case it? Drives me bananers! Help if you can.
I use EXSpeech and it's the same for me. Just one of those little annoyances, I guess!

Rockin' ExSpeech is doing it. If you notice...
It will only do it on Speech jobs not Transcription jobs. Just a little quirk.
All Dictaphone EXSpeech users, do you have advice..
on how to increase line counts? Can we all list a few "tricks of the trade" here or things that have helped you? Been on EXText for years but fairly new on EXSpeech (now on EXEditor), but I know I am probably not using the system to its full potential. Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated!
EXSpeech Nuance correction keystrokes
Editing questions- which Keystrokes actually corrects the documents in the Correction Client, therefore, correcting the terms to the future to that dictator. Does Ctrl D and transcribing the correction cause Correction Client to sit up and take notice. Can you block the text with Ctrl K, Ctrl J, Ctrl-Shift K, and Ctrl-Shift J and start transcribing the correction (will Correction Client see that). Thank you. 
Whoops, probably should have mentioned, I work on Dictaphone ExSpeech. NM

To RockinMT...am curious..what version of ExSpeech are you working on?
I think they are up to 7.5 now. Just wondering if you are working on an older version. According to Nuance, the new version is supposed to be better. I have not tried it myself but am about to and need input on it. Thanks!
Okay, I use EXSpeech and I am noticing that the volume resets after I ctrl+n SM
each VR job. I'm having to go into my volume controls and manually turn back up the wave setting. So maybe it is a setting in the speech rec software that I need to adjust, but how do I do that?
Man, I'm so annoyed! I hate to call the geeks in the office because they act like they are just swamped and they treat me like I'm retarded!
Nothing wrong with your system -- EXSpeech all together horrible editing platform !!!!!!!!! nm

Is it kid friendly?
x
pet friendly
I for one can identify with you. Leaving my simon at home would be like leaving a kid at home! For the last eight years we have planned most of our vacations around our dog. I have found some of the greatest ones were groups of cabins on the lake (I am in Texas, so we have gone to tennessee, arkansas, etc) but I'm sure there are some close to you. They have group cookouts, hiking, casino nights, soft ball, lots of fun stuff. You might check something like that. 
Friendly HHS contact
I was wondering if anyone had the name and number or E-mail address of a friendly person at the Department of Health and Human Services? I have a couple quick short questions concerning the HIPAA regulations.
Thanks.
Just be sure it is transcription friendly and
it has everything at your fingertips, i.e. doctor roster, automatic demographic fill-in, line cout accessible, one key to send and hopefully automatic download, good spell check, and me personally "could live without my ShortHand abbreviation expander. It works in all windows programs, so therefore I can use it on most all software programs.
My supervisor is very friendly and
personable, however, we have never met in person. We have "known" each other for years since we have both worked out of the same office a long time, he used to be an office employee, recently promoted.
hometalkcafe.com might have one. Friendly bunch there.
o
EMDAT InScribe -- not friendly
Terrible platform.
The question you are asking is a very friendly way of calling on all CHERRYPICKERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! sm
doing work that other people either can't or won't do. You should learn just like the rest of us, how to do it all. Take it or leave it. Do them all or do none, so the rest of us won't get cheated out of "easy" reports too!
I know that at my co. you are asked what you can and cannot do. That's a joke! They move me around because I can do it all! Of course I get stuck doing crap because all the easy stuff is taken. Now, come on, is that fair? I don't think so!
so there! You heard a mouthful about one of my biggest pet peeves!
I've tried to be friendly and have a sense of humor,
so I just quit..and went about doing my job figuring they didn't have time to socialize. They seem all business... even my QA person, very cut and dry. I've tried joking with her with not much response. I wasn't sure what was expected of me in that respect.
Does anyone out there have any good pet friendly vacation ideas?? sm
Would love to go away for a small vacation with the kids but they dont want to leave their furry friends behind...and neither do I. I am looking for someplace that will take two dogs and is also kid friendly. I live in Ohio so I dont want something to far away. Dog friendly and kid friendly....too much to ask for????
google.com dog-friendly hotels then the state
VISTA Friendly Transcription Companies?
I saw a post here within the last month for Vista-friendly companies. Please email me if you know who they are. Thanks so much!
Strongly dislike Emdat. It is not transcriptionist friendly.
It gives a great report to the doctor and the companies like it....the only shortcomings directly involve the lowest on the pay scale, the transcriptionists.
If the company is using the program fully it is not too bad, but when they won't even instruct the docs to do their part then you might as well forget about maintaining your line count. It's sad.
A very friendly site. Have a nice day! to Love Cards you should be very Black: http://www.eonline.co
Your website is wonderfull. I'll come visit again. when Plane is Gnome it will Steal Opponents , Red Table is always Lazy Chair when Corner Make Slot Rape , Astonishing, Tremendous, Superb nothing comparative to Lazy Destroy Game is very good Soldier
Saugatuck, MI is great dog friendly place if you want to go N. Try Lake Shore Reality. Google em.

sorry - just used a new user name
didn't know it was taken by somebody else who everybody seems to think so little of. I am NOT whatever MTMommy you all are referring to. Sorry. Just looking for a little knowledge here about what I might be reasonably be able to charge when I am asked... would not want to shortchange myself.
USER too! NM
