Apptec Voice Solutions Digital Dictation System (DDS) is the first dictation system in the industry to combine telephony, network, and web interfaces in a single platform server. DDS provides voice file storage, retrieval and archiving, workflow management and reporting, file import and export via network and web, and telephony-based user interfaces. Every user has a profile which allows the system to respond to unique requirements. Authors can enter one or more demographics that uniquely identify each dictation. Transcriptionists can select work by one of many available criteria, so they can work on the most important priority or find specific work in an instant.
Brooktrout's speech platform will connect DDS servers to the telephone network and process all voice and touch-tone responses for use by the application. The speech platform provides superior audio quality, especially when users use playback speed control, as well as a full range of analog and digital call controls. Call processing is enhanced through the use of monitoring tones and other call connection indications provided by the Brooktrout speech board.
Andrew Braverman, President of Apptec Corporation stated, "We selected the Brooktrout speech platform for our DDS server because of its advanced speech processing characteristics and reliable performance. Just as important, Brooktrout helps us provide a highly reliable and cost effective solution that we are able to offer our customers and that can save them more than 60% off the cost of competitive systems. For example, using our 24 port DDS, a hospital or large law firm could save as much as $50,000 in capital expenditures versus other similarly featured systems."
The Brooktrout speech products are standards-based, board-level speech processing platforms specifically designed to support a broad array of speech, IVR, messaging, and conferencing applications. Ranging from 2 to 240 channels per server, the performance and flexibility of this feature-rich media platform allows systems to scale in both density and functionality to help meet the current and evolving needs of advanced enterprise and service provider applications.
