With about eight hours of use, Voice Xpress worked well enough for me to prefer it to typing. Voice Xpress still requires more help from me than I'd like recognizing Windows and application commands. Even going to the Voice Xpress toolbar and clicking the button that tells the utility to expect a command doesn't guarantee it will recognize my command every time. In terms of desktop applications, Voice Xpress works best with Microsoft Word and PowerPoint, both text-intensive processes. Users who work extensively with spreadsheets may find the payback time quick enough.
Documentation is more than adequate.
Still, the set of tools used to take advantage of everything that Voice Xpress makes available is pretty big and it requires a lot of user choices. Documentation makes a good effort to bring it all together as one coherent process, but there's room for improvement here, too. There are three groups of users who will get the most value from this intelligent product. The first is executives or others who were too important to learn to type. Another group is people who suffer from repetitive-motion injuries or are at risk for them.
