well as already said dragon naturally speakin does a commmendable job,
one thing we all need to remember is that the software provides better accuracy over a period of time.so make sure u do all the training properly.

well office's inbuilt dictation sw doesnt have accuracy as dragon does for indian accent.
trust me i have tried both and no way can they be compared.
dragon is far too superior and got other additional features too.
