Chapter 1: Introducing the Nuance
Management Server
Dragon Group Overview
Dragon Group with Nuance Management Server in the Cloud introduces a client-server
architecture to Dragon Group. You install the Dragon Client on each user's machine, and then
administer the Dragon Group from a centralized server that Nuance hosts. The Nuance
Management Server in the Cloud allows you to administer all of your Dragon clients at once.
Network setup is straightforward and efficient when you use the NMS Server to apply consistent
settings to many workstations running Dragon Client throughout the facility, changing multiple
settings on the NMS Server with the click of a mouse on its Nuance Management Center.
You can take cross-network action on Dragon clients from a central NMS Server:
n Create multiple sites where Dragon Clients are installed and assign the same backup
location, roaming user profile storage location, and amount of archive storage/playback
space to all users on one site in a single stroke.
n Grant, revoke, and manage all dictating users and administrators (NMS Administrator)
licenses, including viewing the number/type of licenses used/still available.
n Create groups of users and then assign entire groups to one or more sites, all at one time.
n Search through groups of users for those associated with a particular site.
n View/access Dragon logs on every Dragon Client workstation.
n Audit session events across the entire network (who logged on when and other related
events) for a particular slice of time or particular user.
n Display a complete list of all downloaded updates and approve or not approve installation of
them—all from a single window.
n Create user accounts for users, then use simple software tools provided to quickly upgrade
old user profiles, then associate upgraded profiles with new user accounts
n Choose to upload speech data to Nuance's Research department for particular users or all
users in your organization.
These features help you to readily manage a network of Dragon Clients.
