I'm very familiar with the various Video Relay Services (HOVRS, Sorenson, Viable, etc.), but I have not often had the pleasure of observing/hearing interpreters from those companies in action. I rather suspect there already has been some talk in the forums about which service is best, but I'm interested specifically in which one consistently has the best interpreters, not the best services overall. Several times I've seen an VRS interpreter at work, and not always does he/she seem to really interpret - he/she seems a little bored. That may or may not be understandable.
Consider times when you've used/observed a VRS interpreter at work. Does he/she seem like he/she is really interpreting - displaying all the intrinsic emotions necessary, transferring everything appropriately into the target language? This question is, admittedly, extremely subjective in nature, so I ask that you use your best judgment. Which company do you think consistently has the best VRS interpreters?
This question is open to all, regardless of hearing status (as I am Hearing myself).
