Posted: Feb 26, 2012

plotting my escape from M*Modal. I was kind of surprised the practicum was all proofreading. Is that all they have? How is pay? Platform easy? Have 401K match? Lots of work on weekends? Any and all reviews appreciated, even bad. Thanks!

I have over 30 years experience and they did not give me 90 days to achieve anything, got terminated after two weeks. Go figure!

Info on Accentus - HappyAccentus

I love Accentus. Platform is a bit lackluster but easy to use and easy to make lines on. There is both VR and straight transcription work. Pay is about average, bonus program is good, and benefits are even better. No offshoring!

No offshoring? You are kidding right - LOLOLOLOL

Accentus - Another old MT

[ In Reply To ..]
About the same as any large company--very unorganized. It's been a couple years since I left (before the name change), but they used to have a nice feature where you could flex your shift in both directions without prior notice. Platform was very clunky but work was always available. Once you were done training they left you alone, which I liked. I would say Accentus was better than most overall, and way better than the Q in any form (been there too). I would say go for it.

accentus agree with old MT - anon

I am currently employed there and agree with Another old MT. I really hated the platform at first but learned to work around it. I stay because even with the drawbacks, it is FAR superior to Q or Nuance (been at both).

What platform do they use? - adkmt

I am also looking to escape MModal.

Accentus platforms - HappyAccentus

The main platform is Apex, with M*Modal for VR, but they have some accounts (a few) on other platforms. You could inquire about them. One is Escription and the other, I think, is Dictaphone, but I am not 100% positive. I work on Apex.

what platform do they use? - DK
