Deb P.: Hi, I am Deb. I'm a life and business coach, and I give Happy Scribe a rating of five out of five. I've been using Otter for the past couple of years, and for the most part I've been satisfied with it, but it is limited in its output formats and I needed something for VTT files and Otter couldn't do it. Otter also recently completely changed their offering, their program for what I got from my level of service, and it didn't work for me anymore. So I was looking for something else. I saw a deal for Happy Scribe and I chose it. Mainly, what I love about it is the possibility to do the VTT files. I chose Happy Scribe for a couple of reasons. The main one for what I'm using it now is the possibility to export files as VTT files for subtitles. I know a lot of people use the SRTs that I need in VTT files and Happy Scribe was one of the few that I could find that did it, and it does it fairly well. And the other reason that I chose Happy Scribe is the option of having a human proofread afterwards. To be honest, I usually do the proofreading myself, but I love having the option of using my credits to have a human make sure that all the typos and the mistakes are corrected. It was very easy to use Happy Scribe. Once I created my account, the user experience is pretty intuitive. I didn't have a learning curve. You just upload your file, let it process, choose your export, choose whether you want it to be machine transcribed, or do you want to add the human proofreading. So yes, very, very easy, intuitive. I highly recommend Happy Scribe to anyone who needs transcriptions done for their business. The particular advantages are having the option to have a human proofread so you don't have to add... cuts off a whole 'nother step to your workflow process of having to proofread it yourself. And also it's really flexible because it has so many different formats you can export to. And like I said, it was the only one I could find that actually did the VTT files for the higher quality subtitles. I find that file to be much better than SRT. So that's my recommendation.
