Optimised for Windows 11

While fully Windows 10 compatible, Dragon Professional 16 has undergone a colossal, year-long rearchitecting and reengineering of its code to ensure optimization for the new Windows 11 operating system. A decided benefit to Nuance having been acquired by Microsoft in March of 2022 is the unprecedented access to Microsoft development assets it afforded the Dragon engineering team. The result is a Dragon that is ideally engineered for today and future-proofed for tomorrow by being supported on, certified, and optimized for Windows 11.
• Supports both Windows 11 and 10 operating systems
• Successfully leverages advancements made in Windows 11
• Aligns with the global migration of Windows PC infrastructure to Window 11
