- Unlimited installations on Windows PCs.
- Use anywhere you have internet and access to a Windows computer with one single user profile stored in the cloud.
Dragon Legal & Professional
Canadian lawyers and non-medical professionals are best served by employing the appropriate Dragon Professional edition. An individual, firm, or company’s requirements dictate the optimal edition. Briefly…
Dragon Legal
Speakeasy Solutions does not recommend the Dragon Legal products; instead, purchase Dragon® Professional (Individual or Group, accordingly). Why?
- The Legal editions of Dragon provide an American legal vocabulary, not Canadian.
Dragon Legal
- The Legal and General Vocabularies contain American spelling, and not Canadian.
- The Professional editions are fully capable of adapting to a Canadian lawyer’s vocabulary.
- The Legal edition is more costly than the Professional edition.
If the features indicated below under Dragon Professional Group are required, consider the purchase of Dragon Professional Group. Otherwise, Dragon Professional Individual satisfies.
Dragon Professional Group
