What’s New for Dragon Professional 16
Optimised for Windows 11

Dragon Professional 16 supports both Windows 11 and Windows 10 operating systems.

Best-in-class accessibility

Dragon software has been well-known for its adaptations for those with physical and cognitive disabilities, and this latest upgrade furthers this with new features such as the ability to use Mouse Grid on multiple monitors.

Built with accessibility requirements in mind, Dragon can be easily adapted to meet precise compliance requirements for accessibility or industry reporting. The new Dragon Professional 16 is perfect for helping organisations of all sizes take full advantage of their workforce and for building an inclusive workplace.

Mouse Grid on multiple monitors is critical in increasing the efficiency of those with physical disabilities working with a large amount of information
Still stocked with longstanding accessibilities like “Play That Back” proofreading of dictated text, Dragon Professional 16 sets a new standard for accessibility functionality
Faster and more accurate than ever

Dragon Professional 16 is a next-generation speech engine and brings continual, consistent accuracy to the PC with Deep Learning technology. The technology continuously adjusts to your voice or environmental variations, even while dictating.

Dragon Professional 16 provides:

  • Best locally running desktop recognition accuracy
  • Continuous learning – even during dictation – for individually adapted accuracy improvements that enhance the user experience
  • Optimal accuracy was achieved for speakers with accents or in slightly noisy environments, such as in a cubicle environment
  • Support for the latest applications

Another benefit of being a Microsoft company is access to the latest applications for integration and support purposes. Dragon’s effectiveness is tied to how well it integrates with other applications; therefore, Dragon must support the latest versions, just as you must have the most current version of Dragon.

Dragon Professional 16 provides:

  • New support for Office 2021 while still supporting Office 2016/2019
  • New support for Microsoft Teams commands
  • New support for ā€œModern Commentsā€ in Microsoft Word dictation

If, for any reason, Nuance does not accept your business details, and consequently we are unable to issue you with a VLA licence, you will be entitled to a full refund, or we can issue you with a Dragon Pro 16 Perpetual licence. Free mail addresses are not acceptable, e.g. Gmail, Hotmail.

Dragon Professional 16 no longer offers Dragon Professional Individual (DPI) and Dragon Professional Group (DPG) versions, but there is simply one product called Dragon Professional 16. However, there are different licensing models, including a perpetual licence (similar to DPI previously) and a subscription/enterprise model based on volume licensing (similar to DPG previously). You can still purchase the VLA licence for a single user, but you must supply a company email address and company details on the checkout form. See further info below. Both VLA and perpetual licenses are the same price.

Dragon Professional 16 is available in English, German, French, Spanish, Dutch & Italian. For further information on purchasing these European language versions, contact us at any time.

The main difference between the different licences is that with the single user (perpetual) licence, you cannot connect up to the NMS (Nuance Management Server) to have the NMC (Nuance Management Centre) admin manage a single user of Dragon version 16.Ā  It is also restricted to 1 or 2 activations with the single-user (perpetual) licence.

There is a Dragon Legal 16 version for the USA & Germany. For Legal users in the UK, we suggest Dragon Legal Anywhere(DLA).

There is an upgrade path from Dragon 15, but users of previous versions will need to purchase a new copy of Dragon 16. See here for the upgrade.
