I found the software to be really fun to use. Sonix makes the painful editing part of transcription enjoyable.
I tried a few transcription services and I found yours to be clearly superior. The results were more complete and accurate.
Easy to use and saved me mega amounts of time!
The best thing ever, nothing more to say.
Sonix is the best transcription program I've ever used. It was almost error-free. I wish I could have used it longer!
I really enjoyed how quickly and accurate the transcription system was. Will definitely use again in the future. I have recommended you to a friend.
Researched and did trials of at least 12 other services. Chose Sonix because of accuracy and simplicity.
No joke, this is the best service out there for qualitative research that involves a lot of audio primary data, and I’ve tried a lot of alternatives.
