Rev is the most accurate, user-friendly, innovative transcription/caption/subtitle software today!
My overall experience with Rev is great! I love working with this software and would recommend it to anyone looking for transcription/caption/subtitle software.
PROSI like how user-friendliness of this software. The timestamp, text-to-speech accuracy, and integration tools make completing transcription/caption projects a breeze
CONSThe only thing I do not like about this software are the sporadic errors created by the Speech Recognition feature when the speaker has an accent.
Reason for choosing Rev
I chose Rev software over competitors because it's the most innovative, and the most user-friendly.

No fuss intuitive interface - Rev an integral part of our workflow
Great. When we've occasionally had problems with transcription quality we've had great, super-fast responses from you!
PROSI love how easy Rev is to use which is a key selling point for us because we use it a lot (often a few times a day), and we love the no fuss, intuitive interface. The quality of the transcripts is really good. The AI option is appreciated when we don't need 100% accuracy, but do want to save money. And it's all become a really integral part of our workflow.
CONSDon't really have any cons about the software.
Reason for choosing Rev
We did look at others that I'm forgetting the names of. #1 reason for choosing Zoom - the accuracy and quality of the transcripts. #2 A price we could fit in our budget. #3 the speed!! #4love the self-serve aspect - rather than working with a transcription company as we did previously.

My #1 Media To Texts Converter
This tool is a BOMB, I was flabbergasted when it converted by 1 hour audio speech file into texts. For me, this tool is the best media to texts converter that I've ever came across.
PROSQuick in converting media files to texts, including very large files, and can convert media files which are even more than 60 minutes via duration.
CONSI've been using Rev for close to two years now, and since then I haven't seen anything to call my problem, at least for now.
Reasons for switching to Rev
Google Docs is good at voice capturing, but one has to read through the generated texts, in order to correct wrong spellings and grammas. Rev is far much better than Google Docs.

It's good, it does the job for maintaining compliance
The product itself is great, settling the accounts payable is more problematic.
PROSIf you need Section805 compliant video for accommodation requests, hands down this is your best option.
CONSRev.com requires you to pay Net30, but WITHIN the credit limit set by Rev.com for monthly charges. So you have to have the credit limit increased to get within the amount of monthly charges you may run up. So we have to have a really high credit limit to continue submitting requests as we get close to the end of the month.
Reason for choosing Rev
Cost less, and we could pay as we go, instead of dumping funds into an escrow account to draw from.
Reasons for switching to Rev
Cost for Panopto.com's provisioned captions was an escrow that was required up front $3,000 which you could lose at the end of a contract period if you didn't use it up. Keeping that escrow account filled and monitored was a hassle. Cost was $2/minute so ~ double what Rev.com was charging back in 2015. Since then Rev.com increased price to $1.25/minute. But it's fine, still a good product.

Great product
GREAT experience. I was using Dragon before and Rev is hands down the better product.
PROSEasy to use, little to no errors. Product is returned, ready to go in VERY little time.
CONSWish, after it was saved, that I could go back and continue dictating in the same file. Not sure I can do that...
Reasons for switching to Rev
Dragon made too many errors.

Best tech on the market
The team, from sales to support, has been exceptional. The product has been flawless. The SaaS service has never been unavailable.
PROSThis question should be, "What 'do' you like most about this software?" We currently use Rev to handle customer-uploaded video files. The accuracy of the transcription is almost perfect. In fact, there are often times we can't understand the speaker and Rev still gets the text correct.
CONSInitially, the lack of non-English languages was a draw back. However, we have beta-tested the new language support and it is proving to be just as good as English.
Reason for choosing Rev
Rev is the best product that we have ever tested in this category.
Reasons for switching to Rev

Rev is better than Trint and Descript, by far.
Very good.
PROS1) accuracy is high for automatic transcriptions2) it differentiates speakers much better than other services we tested (Trint and Descript)3) it puts breaks between paragraphs (unlike others)4) it's timecode is accurate5) the interface it good6) the post transcript global naming and fixes are easy to do (amalgamating or naming speakers, etc)7) the menus are easy8) it offers pay as you go or subscription options9) it's cheaper than other products that offer similar services10) it's faster than Trint and Descript11) it seems to learn the more you use it12) on projects we did with speakers who has thicker accents, it did better than expected
CONSI'm impressed overall, I'd love to see more accuracy with the automatic transcriptions. I want Rev to offer other languages, that was disappointing.
Reason for choosing Rev
It was way more accurate, easier to use, cheaper and had more options to test, including a two week free trial vs some others that are 48 hours.

Rev Review
Rev saves time and money as one does not have to hire a transcriptionist who may take a while and in some cases may miss or misrepresent vital information.
PROSThis is the magic software that turns voices into text. The software offers transcriptions services done accurately and in a short amount of time at a reasonable price.
CONSNothing about rev was amiss, tha transcription and caption is almost always perfect.

Always pleased with their work
Rev is an accurate, fast, sleek transcription software. And if I'm not pleased with a transcriptionists work, I just make that known and that transcriptionist no longer gets jobs from our organization. Their caption services are also great and make captioning videos so easy as I can edit the captions in Rev, export the file, and upload it right into the video platform that I'm using.
CONSI've been very happy with Rev's performance for the price that they charge.
Reason for choosing Rev
Their accuracy, speed, and price for services. They go above and beyond.

PROSRev.com provides prompt captioning services. In many cases, they have completed out captioning projects in less time than advertised.
CONSPanopto captions are not named as they are set up in the Panopto. A Panopto recording being captured is only identified by a very cryptic number.
