Installed voices are already on your computer. They speak the moment an alarm goes off, and cost your computer nothing.

Neural voices sound more like a real person. Your computer has to build each announcement itself, so it does a few seconds of work in the background and uses a little more battery. Alarms still go off exactly on time - the work is done in advance.

On a laptop, or if you would rather the app sat quietly, pick an installed voice.
