Pros

“It would be nice if there were savings on the pay-as-you-go plan as the number of hours purchased scales.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Brian R.

Principal Consultant

“I enjoyed the user friendly UI and the ability to export to software like Adobe and Atlas.ti.”
RS

Rolando S.

Head of Tutoring

“I used Sonix to transcribe roughly 24 hours of video, each with 2-6 speakers, with accents from Texas and New York, among others.”
MJ

Mason J.

Senior Administrative Assistant

Pros

“for a relatively low-cost point, it does so much with regards to transcribing calls and online meetings as well as uses AI to generate summaries, and inquiries can be made as well.”
BD

Benjamin D.

Owner CEO

“I can login to my Otter dashboard and see at a glance which calls are upcoming, past recordings and transcriptions, and available features.”
KM

Kaitlin M.

Content Strategist

“The transcriptions can run together or be a little messy, but that's true of every transcribing app.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Jakkie G.

Freelancer

Cons

“As I use transcription/subtitling only sporadically, it was too expensive to keep the subscription going "just in case".”
MA

Magnus A.

Director

“You pay a monthly fee whether you use it or not. And sometimes I just don´t have anything to transcribe for a month or two.”
PP

Paola P.

Owner

“The thing that I didn't love is that they have basic qualitative analysis for an extra fee.”
RS

Rolando S.

Head of Tutoring

Cons

“Limited Monthly Minutes – Having to track usage and stay within a set number of transcription minutes added unnecessary stress to our workflow.”
BP

Brad P.

CMO

“Shallow Context Understanding – It transcribed what was said, but lacked the ability to understand the why or how, which limited its usefulness for deeper meeting insights.”
BP

Brad P.

CMO

“Sometimes transcriptions are not accurate if there are too many people in the meeting.”
