Speed, accuracy. It makes the job simpler. Speed was great. All the documentation was there. The instruction was really helpful. There is no other tool like kaldi to implement the speech-to-text conversion.

The neural network part of kaldi is out-of-dated, the pipe style command line makes it hard to run on Windows system.
