The biggest drawback is accuracy in technical meetings. During engineering discussions filled with API names, code snippets, and product-specific terminology, I often need to review and correct parts of the transcript before sharing it with the team. Speaker identification isn't always accurate, especially when multiple people speak over one another. Transcription quality can drop in meetings with background noise, strong accents, or poor audio quality. Technical terms, product names, and abbreviations sometimes require manual correction.

I love how otter records the meeting summarizes it and also if you ask it to it will highlight the key points of the meeting. It also has a timestamp of what was said and by who. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

i would say in meetings with multiple people, Otter can struggle to distinguish between voices. It might mislabel speakers or treat one person as two, which makes reviewing the transcript confusing sometimes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When I was running meetings with multiple people, keeping track of everything discussed for the meeting minutes was becoming increasingly difficult. Using Otter.ai to record the meetings, distinguish between different speakers, and generate summaries with clear action items has streamlined my workflow. It’s now much easier to stay on top of what was said and what needs to happen next, and I can work more efficiently as a result. With Otter.ai's ability to manage vocabulary, I was able to insert various terms and nicknames that we use in house, and Otter was quickly able to learn these words, eliminating further transcript editing.

I’ve noticed that when I use Otter.ai during conference talks, it doesn’t always distinguish clearly between different speakers.

"While the transcription accuracy is generally high, I do occasionally find that Otter.ai struggles with complex technical terminology or when multiple people are speaking over each other simultaneously in a meeting. In those specific scenarios, the transcription can become slightly muddled, requiring me to go back and manually edit the text for complete clarity. Additionally, it would be a significant improvement if the tool could more consistently distinguish between speakers when the audio quality is not optimal. These small hurdles in the transcription process mean that I still need to perform a quick review of the generated notes to ensure total accuracy." Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
