"SpeechTEK can help organizations through the process of determining how speech technology can best be used to improve their performance and save money, " says Dr. Larson. "The question for most businesses today is not whether or not to implement speech, but how to do it in a way that produces the best results." write your comments about the article :: © 2008 Exhibition News :: home page |
