Nuance is speaker dependent. You have to train the system to understand the speaker's voice. This is speaker independent which is much harder.

Nuance has speaker-independent systems as well. If you have an iPhone, try an app like Dragon Dictation or Siri. Neither one requires any training, and will start off with high-quality recognition right out of the box.
