•Less control of data. •Users need an Internet connection to access most applications (although some offline viewing is possible). •Support may not be at the level an organization requires. •Applications can be discontinued without notice. •Security and privacy concerns associated with data stored on someone else’s servers. •Training curve may add costs (on both pros and cons). •Culture – working on the Web vs. working with desktop applications. •Google’s terms and service. •Unknown ROI.
