"Perfectly Synced Audio and Video with Clickable Transcripts"
4/5
What do you like best about Rev?

I love that the audio is synced with the video, allowing ease of access to the video clips by selecting a word or sentence within the transcript. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Rev?

I wish there were an easier way to transcribe multiple audio tracks from one video. When multiple students are talking in pairs, it is difficult to split the transcript to allow me to follow one group, then the other. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Decent Transcription with Room for Improvement"

What do you dislike about Rev?

I find there's a lot of mistakes, and the ability to edit is very difficult. It often assigns the wrong name. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great Transcriptions, But Pricey"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Rev?

What I've liked most about Rev has been the ability to get both AI transcriptions and human transcriptions, and it provides them pretty quickly. The Rev Insights feature has also been really helpful. The setup was extremely easy and great, which I appreciate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Rev?

I would say the price has been a little bit more expensive compared to other platforms such as GoToTranscripts. The other piece has been the Spanish transcription; it hasn't done as great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Revolutionized Our Transcription Process"
5/5
What do you like best about Rev?

I most like about Rev is the AI assistant function where I can ask it questions about a transcription, and it can summarize things for me. I also like that it pulls out the punchiest quotes for me that I can drop straight into an article. It's really helpful because it does what used to take hours in the past to transcribe interviews by hand. The initial setup was really easy, and it has a very easy interface to use. I appreciate how clear it is to upload something and then it just goes ahead and transcribes something for you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Rev?

I think sometimes it doesn't pick up regional British accents as well. So it will be very good with, like, a London and Southeast British accent, but when I've been talking to people from Scotland or the Northeast, it struggles a bit more to understand what they're saying.

"Effortless Transcription for Academic Research"
5/5
What do you like best about Rev?

I like that Rev provides a platform for recording and transcribing directly from my phone or computer, which gives me easy access. I really appreciate the feature that allows me to go directly into the transcription and play the recording at the same time while cleaning it up. This is especially useful when I need to correct errors and protect identities during field research. The initial setup of Rev was fairly simple for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Rev?

I ended up doing one of my interviews on a phone call. Rev would not record at the same time that I was on the call. So, I had to use a different platform to record that interview. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Intuitive, Fast, and Cost-Effective Transcription Tool"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Rev?

I really like using Rev for transcribing my interviews. It's a great service because it quickly transcribes everything for me instantly, which solves a big time problem since doing it myself would take hours. It's dependable, and I know the quality of work is solid, providing a strong, accurate, and complete copy that matches what the person said. Also, it's easy to upload from my computer or phone and I get a readable transcript right away. I switched to Rev from another product because it's cheaper, more intuitive, quicker, more accurate, and easier to use. The functionality is very easy to figure out with barely any learning curve. Overall, I find the scenes work really well, making it a very intuitive service that I had no problems with. I learned it really quickly and think the initial setup was super easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Rev?

I guess, it was a little bit difficult to figure out at first. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Revolutionized Our Transcription Process"
5/5
What do you like best about Rev?

I use Rev for transcriptions of videos and conferences. We have a lot of audio and video content that is often hours-long, and having a person transcribe or take notes on it would take days. Rev does it for us in minutes. The best part about it is the summary it provides for every file. I do a lot of social media posting based on videos and panels, and watching/reading the transcript for a whole panel for a post can be taxing. Rev just summarizes all the important points for me so I can skim and draft a post. It can pick up accents seamlessly for the most part, which is really helpful because we work in tourism, so a lot of the videos feature people with accents. This feature makes my job easier, so I don't have to parse out what is said. The initial setup of Rev was really easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Rev?

The options for organization of the files could be improved, and the search function could be better too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simple, Predictable Transcription with Fast Turnaround"
5/5
What do you like best about Rev?

What I like best about Rev is how simple and predictable it is to use. You upload a file, pick the service you need, and you know exactly what it’s going to cost and roughly when you’ll get it back. The turnaround times are usually fast, and the transcripts are clean enough that you don’t spend forever fixing them afterward. It saves a lot of time compared to doing it yourself or chasing freelancers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Rev?

Sometimes the accuracy drops when the audio quality isn’t great or there are multiple people talking, so you still have to proofread more than you’d hope. The pricing can also add up quickly on longer recordings, and there aren’t a ton of customization options without editing the transcript yourself afterward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
