## Reviews

### "Maestra - Timesaver" — 5.0/5

> **Deborah** | *January 6, 2022* | Information Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Maestra has been a major timesaver; I have had to transcribe audio to replace what was in a web conference and doing this manually took hours\!  Now, I just grab the mp4, load it into Maestra, and it transcribes it\!
> 
> **Cons**: Not Maestra's "fault", but there are times that the translations are off.  This is NOT Maestra's "fault"; as long as people are speaking clearly and distinctly, it's not an issue.

### "Game changer and cost effective \!" — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *October 14, 2021* | Cosmetics | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Really easy to use ( on mac for me ) and really allow you to save a lot of money because you can transcript on your own without any additional cost, i like the fact that you pay for the amount that you need too
> 
> **Cons**: sometimes it is tricky to perfectly have the text with the video but this is normal considering the difference of speed reading for example

### "very bad interface with no customer experience" — 1.0/5

> **mohamed** | *February 9, 2023* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: subtitles and transcription is OK but voice over is a nightmare
> 
> **Cons**: avoid voice over by any means it is almost a scam, after a lot of editing it refused to synthesize the text to speech and CC does not respond to any ticket as if they do not exist\!
