A great time saver

A great time saver HappyScribe works incredibly fast. My file is transcribed in 10 minutes. The only thing is when I try to correct some things, it takes a long time for the program to show the changes. But overall a great time saver!

I am really happy for HappyScribe

I am really happy for HappyScribe. It's fast and mistakes done on transcription are nothing compared to other programs. It's great to add subtitles straight away to the movie or export if I want.
