Legal Dictation and Transcription are ingrained into the culture and function of modern legal practices, but does your practice maximise the capability and efficiencies of modern cloud-based speech technology solutions?

Most firms use Dictaphones and docking stations, sharing the dictations to their transcriptionists or transcription software only when they dock their device in the office. This solution “works” for most firms, but there are a few limitations to the way these environments work.

• You need to have a physical Dictaphone, and associated hardware (Eg, a docking station)
• You can only record dictations when you have the Dictaphone with you
• You need to be in the office with your Dictaphone to sync the dictation to the server
• You need an on-premise server to store and delegate dictations for transcription
• Your typists must be in the same office, or have direct connection to the server
• Requires client software to be installed and configured for transcriptionists
• They can be an expensive and inflexible solution
• Is generally inconvenient when compared with other technology solutions

To address the needs of modern law firms and legal practices, ServiceScaler’s Digital Dictation solutions allow you to record dictations via mobile app, any Dictaphone, or directly to the software in the cloud. This eliminates the requirement for on-premise servers, and trips to the office purely to upload dictations.

The secure, subscription-based cloud dictation software also has built in workflow capability to assign and send dictations to typists or transcription software that are authenticated to the system from any location, at any time, giving complete flexibility and scalability to the solution.

The solution can be used either directly over the internet, or by syncing to software installed on typists or transcriptionists computers and can be integrated to use Nuance Dragon Professional for Legal to transcribe dictations.
