They claim to perform much better on sparse data sets. "DSSTNE is much faster than any other DL package (2.1x compared to Tensorflow in 1 g2.8xlarge) for problems involving sparse data". It also has good support for distributing the computation over multiple GPUS. Theano for example can't do anything like that. On the other hand using JSON to design my models sound much worse than using a programming language.
