Hello everybody: Just wondering if anyone out there is using Emdat? If so, what can you tell me about it? Are you happy? Was it a good move?

Yes. I am using Emdat and I like it. Then again it is the only platform I have worked on so I have nothing to compare it to. I had no experience before working on Emdat and I picked it up easy enough.

Thanks for your reply! Can you tell me more? Like, are you using it for a business from home, are you using the other features they offer, like billing and web design, and whether the 2.5 cents/line feels ok... anything you can tell me would be great!
that is high if you are a single MT working from home - EmdatQA

I have worked on a lot of platforms and Emdat is a good one. Almost everything can be done on the keyboard w/o removing the hand to reach for the mouse. I explored using it for a private account and found it was too expensive for my client's needs (very small account). I work for more than one MTSO that uses it, but I have no experience with the billing/web design side of it.
I'm currently searching for a new job, but I'm trying to stay with companies that use EMDAT, as this is my most recent experience and what I'm most comfortable with. In just doing internet searches, I've managed to find a few, but none of them are hiring right now. Does anyone out there know of any other companies using EMDAT that I can check and see if they're hiring? ...
put -year-old into autotext so that I can just type yo after the number and have it work out? I've been trying to figure this out and I can't get it to work. TIA :-) ...
Would somebody be willing to tell me a little bit about EMDAT? I have never used the software and from what I've heard, it is very simple and productive. I find it to be just the opposite.
Is dictation completed using a foot pedal or is it geared for keyboard controls only? Is word-expander software utilizable with EMDAT.
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Lynette

For those that use Vista and EMDAT/Inscribe, have you had problems downloading and using the platform? If so, what issues did you encounter? Thanks!! ...
I am currently using EMDAT as my platform. My company recently upgraded from 4.95 to 4.96. I keep getting a Microsoft error every time I try to upgrade. I called EMDAT, and they told me it was because I use a broadband Satellite internet connection??? They can't help me. Now what? Is it possible to take my PC to my friend's place where she has a different internet connection (cable) and upgrade from there? I need this done ASAP for work. Thanks for your help! ...
With the newest version of EMDAT, can you type in Word and paste into Emdat, as long as there are no generated fields and it is just straight type? ...
I have a question. I currenlty work on EMDAT and I am thinking about taking a parttime job with another company that uses EMDAT. Can I use the EMDAT on the system I am currently working on as long as I put in another user name, password, and company code or do I need to load it and work on a different system?
Thanks. ...
I just started a job using Emdat Inscribe, and my footpedal I ordered hasn't come in yet, so I have been using the function keys to play audio. I have been doing this for about a week now with no problem, but today I log in to work though and the keys are no longer working. The only way I can get the audio to play is by using the mouse. Anyone know why this may be? I haven't changed any of the settings, so I am not sure why they won't work now.
TIA. ...
I'm confused. I interviewed for an IC position for what they said is an Emdat company. But looking online, Emdat is a platform, not an MT company. Can someone please clarify? The rates are really low for an IC and they don't pay for characters that are in normals. Plus she said you work for all different accounts--just log on and grab work off the system when you're scheduled. Is that on the up and up? How can you have a schedule and ...
I accidentally marked a transcription complete in Emdat Inscribe. I haven't uploaded it yet and it is still on my screen. I am not even close to being done with it! How do I get back to being able to continue typing??? ...
I have worked on many. many platforms, but never heard of that one. Can anyone compare it to one. Feel free to talk about a particular companies own software. I've pretty much worked for them all .... lol.
Thanks! ...
I just started work with another company that uses EMDAT. I updated to the version they uses, which I think is higher than the one I currently use. When I sign in under my old company ID everything works. Is there a big problem using a different version? Is it possible to load another EMDAT screen onto my desktop if there is? ...
I may have a job offer from a company that utilizes EMDAT software. I am not familiar with it at all. It seems that it does not use a foot pedal, which seems odd to me. Any input on EMDAT would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance! ...
My work PC crashed last week. I am trying to find a PC to with Windows 7 since that is what I am currently using (well, was using) and I know it is compatible. All I am finding locally is Windows 8. They don't have anything running Windows 7 in stock. I don't have a lot of time to wait around to have one shipped to me. I have tried asking IT, but I still have not heard from them.
Is Windows 8 compatible? ...
Anyone else having trouble with Emdat transmission? I have had several reports checked & double checked by me and sent to docs with incorrect demographics. I have covered myself with writing down patient names & TID #s, and they have still gone forward with crazy demogrphics for the past month. It's about to make me lose my good job & I don't know what to do.

Hopefully leaving Nuance this week! Going to a company with Emdat as an IC. I have to pretty much train myself on this (as I expected, being an IC) and so far it seems very similar to the older BeyondTXT. A lot of the keyboard commands are the same as BeyondTXT before we were switched to the newer (worse) eBeyondTXT. Can anyone tell me how user friendly it ends up being? ...
