What customers say about Sonix's automated transcription 
Having tried numerous transcription services, this was undoubtedly the best. There were features (such as the synching up of the audio to the words for review) that I hadn’t ever hoped to find.
Sonix is simple and very easy to use and the results were very nearly perfect. I would definitely recommended the site to anyone who asks me.
The interface and editor experience were great. I also like the way you handle speaker identification and naming. Pretty slick. Nice timestamp frequency / formatting too.
This software is still the best one out there for the German language.
Your product is amazing, I love so many features including the video capture on the side, ability to change the transcript as you go, highlighting, downloading audio files... SEARCHING TRANSCRIPTS
