Hi,

These are few options when it comes to Speech to Text softwares available in the market.
1: Dragon Professional.
2: Voice Finger.
3: ViaTalk.
4: Tazti.
5: e-Speaking.

NOTE: The accuracy may differ based on many factors, so it would be advisable to first test a couple of them before finalizing any of them. I belive they do have an option of trial version.

Regards,
Edwin.
