3.0 out of 5 stars Loved it, but no longer supported, December 9, 2009

This review is from: Stedman's Smartype Single-User Version 1.0a CD: Speedtyping Software for Microsoft Word for Medical Transcription (CD-ROM)

I've been using Smartype for nearly 8 years. I was one of the very first to purchase this product! In hindsight, I wish I would have purchased another product. However, it has saved me many, many keystrokes over the years, and I truly have become addicted to this product. I cannot see myself ever changing to another expander program, although it is inevitable at this point. Those who are considering purchase of this product should know: It is not compatible with Vista, per Stedman's web site, nor compatible with anything beyond Word 2003. As well, I had been in contact with them multiple times asking them to support Vista and future applications. Instead of resolving the issue, they have decided to no longer carry/sell the product. Not enough users. Go with Instant Text.

This review is from: Stedman's Smartype Single-User Version 1.0a CD: Speedtyping Software for Microsoft Word for Medical Transcription (CD-ROM)

This is a great help for the medical transcriptionist person. One thing to know is that it won't mix very well with 64 bit systems which are available now. I had to buy Windows 7 upgrade to get this to work - not very easy to use now. Program is still great - the process to use it on a newer computer is not!

5.0 out of 5 stars Longtime Smartype user....Love the new 2012 version., January 17, 2012

This review is from: Stedman's Smartype Single-User Version 1.0a CD: Speedtyping Software for Microsoft Word for Medical Transcription (CD-ROM)

I loved this version of Smartype and the previous versions as well. I have clung to it all these years, still using Word 2003 so I could continue to use Smartype. It makes me faster, reduces the amount of errors spellcheck has to find, and even helps with researching words. I am so happy they have finally updated it in 2012 to work with Windows 7, platforms, and other word processors. I was afraid I would have to give it up like the previous reviewer.
