Product Description
Amazon.com Review
Say goodbye to carpal tunnel syndrome and hello to L&H Voice Express Professional 5.0. This newly upgraded speech recognition software lets you dictate e-mail, create reports, and even surf the Web just by the sound of your voice.
Initially, the installation for Voice Express Professional 5.0 seemed a bit daunting--the package comes complete with a "read me first" pamphlet, headphones, and a detailed user's guide. However, it seems that an easier start-up process was on the developers' minds when they upgraded this product, so the installation itself was not so scary. After setting up our mike and creating our speaker profile, we were able to start dictating. Voice Express does offer the L&H Voice Express Café, an interactive learning center for new users. Take note, however, that you must have Shockwave installed on your computer to use this feature (the application will prompt you to install it if you haven't already).
It is important to keep in mind that Voice Express only works with Windows-based applications. Still, if you are a fan of Word, Excel, and the rest of the gang, you will be pleased to know that Voice Express is now fully integrated with Office 2000. The application even lets you send instant messages, all without typing a word.
Because the software is trained to recognize your voice, you have to pay special attention to the positioning of the mike, which may take some time for new users to feel comfortable with. It did get a little frustrating having to adjust the mike whenever our heads moved or we took the headset off. However, although it may take some adjustment time, this application is fairly straightforward and quite useful for busy professionals. --Gisele Toueg

4.0 out of 5 stars
I love it!,
By Kaye Powell (Sulphur, OK United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: L&H Voice Express Professional 5.0 [OLD VERSION] (CD-ROM)
I upgraded from the advanced to the professional edition because I wanted to use the voice recorded macros. I use it on both my home computer and my notebook. The supplied microphone (not USB)worked great with my Gateway Solo laptop.

Not For Laptops,
By "mattwdc" (Kansas City, MO United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: L&H Voice Express Professional 5.0 [OLD VERSION] (CD-ROM)
I wish I could say that I was not typing this review, but rather dictating it. I have no clue how this product really performs, because I just found out from L&H technical support that the mic they provide does not work with laptops PC's. I am told that I need to purchase a USB mic that will cost an other $50.00, which they do not mention in their documentation. I am sure that this will hold true on all Voice Recognition products and not just L&H, but they should have been upfront with as customers. So, If you are thinking of purchasing this product make sure you purchase a USB mic that will not get interference from you laptop. I will write a follow up if I decide to get the other mic.
