User Testimonials
	Amazon Transcribe	Picovoice Voice AI Platform
Likelihood to Recommend	Amazon AWS Amazon Transcribe can be an excellent tool for businesses where being able to convert speech or audio to text, in a searchable and reportable form, would be useful. For a call center (inbound or outbound), the ability to have a rich transcription of each call (and being able to search it for keywords) is an incredibly valuable benefit. For business meetings, being able to turn a 60 or 90-minute call into a readable transcript to search or refresh yourself or others is a very large time saver which will help you work more efficiently. The software does offer many deeper integrations, such as being able to track script usage (for call centers) or interruptions, deviations, etc.. which would be very valuable to a management team and for training purposes.

Pros	Amazon AWS It converts live recordings to text with few errors. It has powerful speech recognition models- it transcribes well even low quality audios. Incentivized Verified User Read full review	Picovoice No answers on this topic
Cons	Amazon AWS It was not easy to bring Amazon Transcribe to life, but kudos to the vendor for the free support they offered. Incentivized Josphine Hammond Senior Database Administrator Read full review	Picovoice No answers on this topic
Alternatives Considered	Amazon AWS I use Google Cloud Speech to Text and Amazon Transcribe. What makes Amazon Transcribe better for me is the accuracy of the audio-to-text conversion. I have found out that Amazone Transcribe is better at handling homophones, contractions, abbreviations, and acronyms. Another feature that makes Amazon Transcribe my No. 1 choice is its use of punctuation marks. I can also feed my own list of vocabulary into Amazon Transcribe to help me acquire better results.
