My personal recommendation would be to avoid this product at all costs unless you absolutely have to have it. However given the instability of the product that I have incurred since V6 was released, combined with the abysmal tech support that I have been given (4 documented issues and questions that have not received closure since April when they were asked/reported) As far as I can tell no changes have been made for High Sierra but it does run under High Sierra. The current version is 6.07 and has not been updated in months. This from what I can make of it is NOT an upgrade or update from the current version. It works really well with my inexpensive Plantronics C435 USB headset. You quickly realize how much less expensive Dragon is.

The primary use for Dragon Dictate is for DICTATION.įor voice dictation, Dragon Dictate is simply miles ahead of the competition. I would recommend forgetting about using it to control your computer. Any complaints should be tempered with this recognition. Our major operating systems are not built for voice control. Voice control is not built into the major operating systems.

If you expect Dragon Dictate to do more than voice recognition, realize that any such attempt is a hack on the operating system - Windows or Mac.
