I would recommend eScribe Digital Transcription Services to other professional service firms.

CoreData / Brand Management is a research and strategy consultancy who require, at times, a high volume of lengthy focus groups and interviews to be transcribed.
We have been working with eScribe Digital Transcription Services for the last four years and they have never let us down. They are our preferred transcribers for our transcription requirements as they have a flexible approach, are accurate, fast and reliable. Even when given short deadlines to work with, they have always adjusted to our timings.
eScribe's secured online document management system is very secure and user friendly and our Account Manager (Vicki McLean) is always approachable and easy to work with. She will always try to find solutions tailored to the requirements of our project. Being able to always count on eScribe and knowing that within days (generally well before deadline) we will receive accurate transcripts and are able to start analysis, is such a valuable tool for us. For that reason alone, we would never need to go elsewhere whilst being able to work with eScribe Digital Transcription Services.
"Forensicare has been using eScribe's service to type our extremely long and complex psychiatric and psychological reports for 18 months now. With over 20 clinicians using eScribe's customised secured system, we can't fault eScribe's service. The turnaround times and the accuracy of the reports is excellent. The initial set-up was easy and the ongoing support and customer service from Vicki McLean is great, not to mention extremely professional!
This is an excellent transcription service that we will continue to use on an ongoing basis and one which we would have no hesitation recommending to others.
"Working with Vicki and the eScribe team is a real pleasure. Vicki provides a great service that is quick and professional, but more than that she has personally advised and helped to develop products specific for our needs which has been invaluable. It has been great to find a business that genuinely cares for its clients, and this shows in what eScribe do for us.

"We have been using the eScribe Digital Transcription Service for just over one year now and would highly recommend it. We need eScribe for the transcribing of interviews and meetings for use in our magazine. eScribe's secured online system is easy to use - uploading the audio files is secure, quick and hassle free. The transcripts are always delivered in good time. The support we all get from Vicki is also excellent. I know if ever I have an issue (not there has been any) I can call her and it would be sorted immediately. We have never used a transcription service before but now find it invaluable to our production process and in eScribe's transcription service, we have a truly reliable partner."

"I completed a number of lengthy interviews for a qualitative research project I was undertaking as part of a PhD. All interviews for the project were transcribed by eScribe Digital Transcription Services, managed by Vicki McLean, who had been recommended to me by a recent PhD graduate. The service provided by Vicki was first rate and far superior to other transcribing services I had used some years before. Transcriptions were accurate and turned around very quickly. I particularly appreciated the advice and instructions provided by Vicki to ensure good quality recordings and transcription of interviews.
Overall, Vicki McLean provided an excellent service and I would have no hesitation in recommending eScribe Digital Transcription Services to others."
"We were referred to Vicki McLean and the eScribe transcription service's team to transcribe our Records of Interviews over four years ago after a period of trial and error with other transcription companies. We're more than happy with the professional and personalised service we currently receive. Part of this service includes attention to detail, presentation, accuracy and fitting in to our sometimes very demanding turnaround requirements, without fail.
We recommend Vicki McLean and eScribe Digital Transcription Services without reservation and look forward to continuing our successful relationship.
"Vicki McLean of eScribe Digital Transcription Services, has just supported me with my first research project and she has been wonderful. Vicki did more than type up transcripts!
The first thing that blew me away was that she loaned me a high quality digital recorder. This saved me an enormous amount of time and running around. She then taught me how to do good audio recordings. It sounds like something that should be easy but there are so many ways to do it badly which, in turn, adds to the cost of transcription. Armed with some instructions, I was able to improve the quality of my recordings which saved my precious grant money. Vicki also advised me on how to format the documents for analysis with NVivo. I had no idea that it made any difference.
I can highly recommend eScribe for transcribing your research interviews - no matter how small or large your project is. Vicki helped me in so many ways and gave me a real sense of confidence. Vicki and the team at eScribe are very reliable, and best of all, understanding and will help you too!"
"I've been dealing with Vicki McLean and the eScribe team for quite some time now. I was more than pleased to find out that all my interviews have been transcribed very fast and accurate.
But what I find more pleasing is the fact that Vicki has a personal touch which makes you feel comfortable and a very valuable client ."

"As a PhD student, making the decision to use the eScribe Digital Transcription Services was one of the best decisions I've ever made. The whole process of recording interviews and uploading them to my own account on eScribe's server via their very secure database, was easy and efficient. This, together with the fact that the transcripts were precise and completed in quick time, made it all seem effortless. Using eScribe saved me hours and hours of time and allowed me to focus on other important aspects of my research. I recommend the use of eScribe highly."

"eScribe was great! In a large project involving the transcription of many focus groups and individual one on one interviews, the eScribe team did an excellent job. The quality of the transcripts were excellent easy to read and for us to use for our workshops. What impressed us the most was Vicki's ability to efficiently manage our project to ensure our tight deadlines were met without issue, together with her open and willing approach to meet our needs."
"I have been very satisfied with the standard of Vicki McLean's work of eScribe Digital Transcription Services and more importantly, the service.

"eScribe added further value to the project by providing additional
practical support. The digital voice recorder that eScribe hired/loaned
me, along with suggestions and tips associated with some of the
practical issues involved in recording interviews, greatly improved
the quality of the audio files. This increased both the speed and
accuracy with which eScribe transcribed the interviews, while decreasing
the cost to me. eScribe has enabled me to forge ahead with my research
with much greater efficiency than if I had transcribed the interviews
myself. Furthermore, this collaboration has preserved my enthusiasm
for the project and enabled me to concentrate my energy and efforts
in areas in which there is a greater return. I enthusiastically
recommend eScribe's services to fellow researchers."

"As a part time doctoral student and full time worker the
choice to use eScribe Digital Transcription Services has saved me
at least a year off my study time. That means you can get on and
do the analysis without having to spend endless weekends transcribing
data.
The team at eScribe, not only ensure the transcribing of interviews
is carried out quickly, but the quality is exceptional and the service
is outstanding.
My thesis relied on the voices of the respondents to understand
the phenomena, so capturing the idiosyncratic speech patterns of
participants was crucial. Vicki's skills have ensured accuracy and
validity of data.
I have, and will continue to highly recommend eScribe Digital Transcription
Services."

"I first began using the services
of eScribe Digital Transcription in August 2004.
Since that time, my practice has benefited significantly from the
cost and time savings brought about through the efficient and punctual
services provided by Vicki McLean.
In a busy practice, the ability to be able to turn out large volumes
of work in short periods of time, often under urgent circumstances,
means I can concentrate more on dollar productive work rather than
time spent at the keyboard.
I have found Vicki McLean of eScribe to be of significant benefit
to my practice and would highly recommend the use of eScribe's services."
