On-premise enterprise dictation
Enterprise dictation without giving up control.
Some organisations need more than locally installed dictation software. Hospitals, courts, government agencies and larger law firms often need to manage where audio is stored, how users are configured, how work is routed and how transcription teams access sensitive recordings.
SpeechExec Enterprise by Philips gives those organisations an on-premise dictation and transcription platform with central administration, concurrent licensing, managed author and typist modules, optional mobile dictation, enterprise reporting and Dragon speech recognition options.
It is the SpeechExec option for sites that want to own the workflow. Your IT team manages the environment, your organisation controls the storage, and users continue working with familiar dictation and transcription tools.
Built for sites that need to own the workflow
Control the platform, the users and the data.
SpeechExec Enterprise is designed for organisations that want their dictation and transcription environment managed inside their own infrastructure, with the control expected by IT, records, governance and clinical or legal operations teams.
On-premise deployment
Deploy SpeechExec Enterprise within your own Windows server environment, with the system design and access model managed by your organisation.
Controlled, on-premise storage
Keep dictations, documents, archives and configuration repositories aligned with your organisation’s storage and access-control requirements.
Concurrent licensing
Manage SpeechExec Dictate and Transcribe access through the Enterprise License Server, supporting larger author and typist groups.
Central administration
Manage users, licences, client settings, worklists, device configuration and optional advanced modules from the enterprise management tools.
Enterprise Basic or Enterprise Plus
Start with the core platform. Add the additional functionality when you need it.
SpeechExec Enterprise is available in two main paths. SpeechExec Enterprise Basic gives you the foundation modules for managed dictation and transcription. SpeechExec Enterprise Plus adds the tools larger sites usually need for routing, reporting and remote hardware management.

Enterprise Manager and License Server
Central control for users, licences and configuration.
SpeechExec Enterprise uses a central License Server to deliver licences to Enterprise Dictate and Enterprise Transcribe clients. This supports larger author and typist groups without treating every workstation as a separate standalone setup.
Enterprise Manager gives administrators a central point for system settings, users, licensing and configuration. For larger sites, this is where SpeechExec moves from local dictation software into a managed enterprise platform.
Concurrent licences
Licence access is centrally delivered when users launch the client applications.
Shared configuration
Manage shared system settings and workflow configuration from one place.
User management
Support controlled access for authors, transcriptionists and administrators.
Author-to-typist workflow
A familiar dictation process, managed properly.
SpeechExec Enterprise keeps the author-to-typist model that many professional teams already understand, then adds the central management required for larger legal, medical and government environments.
Dictate
Authors can dictate using compatible Philips SpeechMike dictation microphones, headsets, PocketMemo recorders or supported enterprise recording setups.
Transcribe
Typists work from managed worklists with playback controls, job information, priority handling and compatible Philips foot control support.
Web Access
Web Access can support browser-based access where configured, giving selected users another way to work inside the enterprise environment.
Workflow visibility
Job details, priorities and status information help transcription teams manage urgent work without losing sight of the wider queue.
Enterprise Plus
Add routing, reporting and remote device control.
SpeechExec Enterprise Plus is the stronger path for sites that need more than the foundation modules. It adds the tools usually required when dictation volume, hardware management and reporting become part of day-to-day operations.
Workflow Manager
Route dictations using defined rules, criteria and workflow logic instead of relying only on manual file movement.
Statistics Module
Report on author activity, typist activity, dictation details and workflow performance across the environment.
Remote device management
Centrally configure supported Philips dictation hardware, including selected device settings, recording profiles and firmware management.
Self-hosted mobile dictation
Add mobile dictation without moving to a public cloud.
SpeechExec Enterprise can be extended with SpeechExec Mobile licences. This allows users to record on a supported mobile device and send dictation directly into the organisation’s SpeechExec Enterprise environment.
For teams that want mobile dictation while keeping infrastructure control, it provides a private pathway for capturing, sending and managing dictations inside the enterprise workflow.
Mobile capture
Authors can record, edit and manage dictations from supported iOS and Android devices.
Private routing
Dictations are sent, stored and managed via your own SpeechExec Enterprise infrastructure.
IIS configuration
Mobile Service deployment requires an appropriate server and IIS configuration.
Dragon speech recognition
Add Dragon speech recognition without losing workflow control.
SpeechExec Enterprise can support Dragon speech recognition options where the licensing, modules and environment are correctly matched to the site.
Dragon Professional v16
Dragon Professional v16 can be added to suitable SpeechExec Enterprise Basic or Plus workflows where the correct Dragon software, SpeechExec licensing and workstation setup are in place.
Dragon Medical One
Dragon Medical One can be connected to suitable SpeechExec Enterprise Plus deployments through SpeechKit module licensing, subject to technical design and licensing requirements.
Review and correction
Speech recognition can support dictated text, review and correction processes where authors, assistants or transcription teams complete the final document.
Infrastructure fit
Designed for the environments IT teams actually manage.
SpeechExec Enterprise suits managed Windows server and virtual desktop environments where deployment, storage, access and hardware behaviour need to be planned before rollout.
Windows Server
Designed for supported Windows Server environments and enterprise deployment planning.
Virtual desktop
Supports virtual and remote desktop environments, including Microsoft Remote Desktop Services, Citrix and VMware environments where correctly scoped.
Philips hardware
Supports Philips DPM dictation recorders, SpeechMike microphones, headsets and foot controls. Third-party hardware support may also be available depending on the deployment.
Healthcare and legal fit
Suited to professional environments where sensitive audio, documents, dictation routing and review processes need clear control.
SpeechExec Enterprise or SpeechLive?
Control or cloud flexibility — choose the right path.
SpeechExec Enterprise is the better fit when your organisation wants to own and manage the dictation environment. SpeechLive is often the better path when cloud access, mobile users, lower infrastructure overhead or faster deployment are the priority.
Philips SpeechExec Enterprise
When on-premise control, self-managed storage, central administration, virtual desktop support and enterprise governance are the priority.
Choose SpeechLive Enterprise
When your team needs cloud dictation, mobile access and central administration without managing an on-premise SpeechExec environment. SpeechLive Enterprise gives authors, typists and administrators a secure hosted workflow that is easier to roll out across multiple locations.
Enhance SpeechLive with AI
SpeechLive can extend beyond cloud dictation with AI Speech Recognition and the SpeechLive Legal AI Assistant. Dictations, meetings and matter notes can be converted into text and structured legal documents ready for review.
