The following is the review it received when still available.

 

This excellent language-teaching tool is packed with features, is masterful at teaching the fundamentals of the Russian language and comes with plenty of help and support.

Say it in Russian includes the 'Before You Know It' system for learning key words and phrases to get you jump started into learning Russian fast. Although this is a useful and effective product, we felt the speech recognition tool was not as good as some of the other products so it didn't win our #1 spot.
