    Best suited for large organizations, availability of usage of more than one language in a specific API call. Moderately suited for small and mid sized organizations as the pricing is on a higher end

    This service is well suited for scenarios where you need to integrate text-to-speech and/or speech-to-text into applications. Within our organisation, it is primarily used by students for development purposes to enable said functionality but is also used to provide accessibility to students who have hearing-related issues. Its multi-language support is also beneficial for our international students who have English as a second language and are therefore able to rapidly translate any text or speech that they do not understand.

    • Availability of customizations in order to adjust some specific requirements
    • Availability of Language studio so that one can avoid coding

    We haven't used other products. Our experience with Azure, whilst not meeting our needs this time around, was positive, educational and insightful. This was the first time that we had considered using an AI tool to manage and manipulate our data and we were unsure of the capabilities.

    Azure Cognitive Speech Services is simple and the interface is not complicated even for those getting started with these customer services tools and the best voice recognition. Setting the platform dashboard preferences is also an easy process and with the ability to manage workflow and document management the system functions are stable and effective.
