Jott and reQall- An Unscientific Comparison

Jott and reQall are both powerful tools in their own right. While each offers slightly different functionality, the bread and butter of both is found in their transcription ability. Now that each offers a resident application the comparisons are inevitable so… I’m going to compare the two.

In anticipation of an upcoming full review of both I did a couple of quick, unscientific, tests. The main things I wanted to see were (a) transcription accuracy and (b) speed of turnaround time.

I used the following statement as the first test–

This is a first attempt at two of us doing a quick comparison of the transcription accuracy of JOTT and REQALL.

Actual transcriptions from the two–

reQall- This is a first attempt that two of us doing a quick comparison of the transcription accuracy of Jott and reQall.

Jott- This is the first attempt at two of us doing a quick comparison of the transcription accuracy of Jott and reCall.

For the second test I used the first paragraph of this post-

Jott and reQall are both powerful tools in their own right. While each offers slightly different functionality which I will go into in much more detail in full reviews over the next few days the bread and butter of both is found in their transcription ability.

Jott- Jott and recall about powerful(?) tools in their own right. _____ for slightly different functionality which I will go into in much more detail and full reviews over the next few days, the bread and butter of both is found in their transcription ability.

My unscientific results? reQall came out on top but both took far too long to return the text once the message was left.

Also- I find it nice that both times reQall accurately rendered Jott’s name. Jott, apparently, didn’t want to return the favor!
