About the Roaming feature

The Roaming feature allows users to dictate on different computers where Dragon is installed without having to create separate user profiles for each computer. Users can dictate on different computers in their office, or even computers in different geographical locations, like at work and at home. With Roaming enabled, each user has a single Roaming user profile stored in a central network location. Users use this profile on each computer where they dictate. Dragon saves acoustic data to the network location when users save changes to their Roaming user profile.

The Roaming feature:

• Allows users to use Dragon even when the network directory that stores Roaming user profiles is unavailable. Dragon simply opens the Local Roaming user profile.
• Warns users when they attempt to open the same Roaming user profile from more than one computer at a time.
• Minimizes network traffic. If a Local Roaming user profile exists on a specific computer, Dragon downloads only the updates when the user opens the profile. Dragon also uploads only the updates when the dictation session ends.
• Provides username and password protection on Roaming user profiles if HTTP Roaming is configured.

Yes.

You can enable the Roaming feature and use Roaming user profiles when Nuance Management Center/NMS mode is disabled and also when it is enabled. When Nuance Management Center/NMS mode is enabled, you can create and use only a single user profile per region. If you require multiple user profiles per region, you can enable the Roaming feature to create and use multiple Roaming user profiles.
