Crimp connectors seem to be much quicker and easier to install. I still use a file comb to dress the braid and a good quality Santron or Amphenol solder and dress connector in equipment room installations.
It is much easier to make a mess out of a solder and dress connector, and for consistency a crimp on connector will be better and quicker, particularly on a mobile installation. I remember the ladies at Wacom had work tables just for installing connectors on modified RG214 jumpers with file combs and hand tools. They could really put together a work of art.
