Hi All,
During current events, as we all undertake to do our bit in flattening the curve of the Coronavirus outbreak, I am aware that many people who heretofore were office based workers, are now making the move to work remotely from home for the first time.
Here at Virtual Office Solutions we are incredibly lucky that this is how myself and all my typists have always worked, and so I wish to re-assure everyone that we are open for business as usual and here to help everyone in whatever way we can.
Several clients have been asking me to suggest good mobile phone Apps that they could use for remote home working, and to this end, I am pleased to list below a few choices that my clients use that work very well, have a very good quality sound output and we have been happily working with for many months, if not years in the case of the Olympus App.
VOICE RECORDER APPS FOR YOUR PHONE
1. Otter Voice Meeting Notes (Free)
Apple Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/otter-voice-meeting-notes/id1276437113
Google Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aisense.otter&hl=en_IE
2. ASR Voice Recorder (Free)
Google Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nll.asr
I am currently not sure if this app is available on iPhone/Apple store.
3. Olympus Digital Voice Recorder App (Paid)
(Used to be free, has now moved to a fee-based service)
Apple Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/olympus-dictation-for-iphone/id695465151
Google Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.olympus.dmmobile&hl=en_IE
Perhaps some of your colleagues/fellow business professionals in the same industry are struggling at home and would like to consider the possibility of using our service to help them through the next couple of months. If you think this might be the case, we would be delighted if you would recommend our transcription services here at Virtual Office Solutions (VOS). Even forward them this post perhaps? If they get in touch, we will happily forward them more detailed information about the service and our rates.
DON’T HAVE A DIGITAL VOICE RECORDER?
1. No problem, we can provide you with that also.
2. We can order your new voice recorder today and have it couriered to your door within 1-3 working days (but would just need to verify delivery date at time of order, which will be based on our supplier’s stock levels).
Please contact us for pricing if you are interested in purchasing the Olympus Digital Voice Recorder DS-2500, or the AS2400 Transcription Kit (software, headphones).
If you have any queries at all in relation to any of the above, or would like to discuss anything further please do not hesitate to contact me.
We are acutely aware that some of our clients will be experiencing huge stress, drops in workloads and challenges that have never been faced before. I hope everyone is keeping safe and well and that in helping each other as best we can, we will all come out the other side of this with our families healthy and businesses still intact.
Stay safe everyone, let’s stay home where we can, wash our hands regularly, practice social distancing, and get through this together!
Kind regards,
Bernie
