Practice Assistant Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 5/7/2026 "User-Friendly Dictation Transcription with Accurate Voice Detection" 5/5 What do you like best about BigHand? I like the fact that it was so user friendly when my organization used it. I loved that when the attorney would upload their dictations bighand would automatically detect the voice and type all out for you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about BigHand? Nothing really. I don’t have much to complain about; we only used it for a few months. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is BigHand solving and how is that benefiting you? Dictation, because all we had to do was listen to the attorneys dictation and bighand would automatically detect all of it and we just have to go in and fix minor mistakes the mic didn’t pick up.

Account Manager Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 11/21/2024 "Administrator of Big Hand" 4.5/5 What do you like best about BigHand? The software is very easy to use. It did not take much time to train the staff on the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about BigHand? I am not a fan that there is a seperate application for the dictation and the review. Lawyers can only use the app and paralegals have to translate it through an application. When rolling out a new product, it is nice to have consistency amoung all users. It is also sometimes difficult to add licenses since you have to go through a sales rep but they don't notify you when your rep leaves the company and do not use out of office emails. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is BigHand solving and how is that benefiting you? It is very easy for lawyers to dictate. You can also assign your dictation to certain paralegals for them to translate it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
