Philips SpeechExec Enterprise 4.1 revolutionizes your dictation workflow
Philips, the number one in professional
dictation systems, announced the release of SpeechExec Enterprise 4.1, the
latest version of the company’s enterprise-wide dictation management software
solution. SpeechExec Enterprise 4.1 features advanced administration tools for
easy and convenient management of large groups of dictation users.
“SpeechExec Enterprise 4.1 brings a wealth of benefits to IT administrators and
was developed in close collaboration with IT specialists from large legal and
medical entities. It reduces the strain on human resources when implementing and
managing enterprise-wide, high-volume dictation workflows,” says Thomas Brauner,
category leader of Philips Speech Processing.
Putting IT administrators at the helm
Profitability-conscious businesses use digital dictation to create documents. It
is fast, convenient and inexpensive. Today, large groups of doctors and lawyers
work with SpeechExec Enterprise in their hospitals or at their law firms. They
are even able to connect from home or on the road via iPhone or Blackberry to
their SpeechExec Enterprise digital dictation solution.
SpeechExec Enterprise 4.1 facilitates user management with Active Directory
synchronization. Administrators can set up and maintain groups or manage user
rights at the click of a button. They can also allocate group management rights
to heads of department, making it easier to distribute workloads more equally
and flexibly.
The enhanced statistics module in SpeechExec Enterprise 4.1 generates data on
the dictation and transcription workflow, including work item throughput,
turnaround times and used workflow types. This supports decision making and
allows for the continual optimization of workflows despite changing user
patterns or preferences.
SpeechExec Enterprise also possesses heightened flexibility, including system
settings tailor-made to meet customer requirements – providing both options for
full installation, Terminal Server and Citrix environments, and scheduled
workflow options.
Seamless speech recognition integration
SpeechExec Enterprise 4.1 is aligned with Philips' philosophy of giving users
the freedom of choice regarding their working preferences: dictation authors can
decide whether to have their dictations transcribed by a secretary or a speech
recognition system; selective automatic routing even allows them to make that
choice directly on their Pocket Memo portable voice recorder. At the other end
of the chain, transcriptionists have the option to highlight every word of text
drafts generated via speech recognition while playing back the original
recording. This makes it easier to find and correct errors.
Philips recently announced an expansion of its partnership with Nuance
Communications in order to better integrate speech recognition with SpeechExec.
SpeechExec Enterprise connects seamlessly with Dragon NaturallySpeaking
Professional, Legal and Medical to control the entire document creation workflow
within one single application.
