I have been using Hal for years, and its the best program that has helped me as a quadriplegic. I do not have to interrupt my caretakers.

I’ve tried other products and found they were more complicated to use. The ease of setup, use and modification capabilities (on the fly) of Hal made my decision for me. Their support is excellent.
