| Customisation | High degree of customisation to match specific needs | Some limits to customisation |
| Scalability | Limited scalability requires additional investment for growth | Highly scalable, can easily accommodate growth without significant upfront cost |
| Accessibility | Accessible only from the office or designated premises | Accessible from anywhere, at any time, allowing for collaboration and flexibility |
| Cost | Significant upfront investment for hardware, infrastructure and maintenance | Low upfront costs and predictable budgeting |
| Data Security | Relies on internal security measures | Advanced security measures, encryption, back-up systems and strict access controls |
| Maintenance | In-house responsibility for update, maintenance and upgrades | Maintenance, updates and system upgrades owned by provider |
| Compliance | In-house responsibility for compliance | Cloud provider often exceeds compliance requirements and offers built-in compliance features |
