| Costs are typically a tiny fraction of maintaining your own in-house IT personnel. | IT personnel | Often the biggest single line cost item. And it has to be factored in the labor costs maintenance of real estate, servers, databases and other technology. |
| Updates, fixes, and patches are released on a continuous upgrade cycle, allowing for immediate deployment. | Maintenance | Costs for loading of fixes, patches, updates, and upgrades and to test them. |
| No additional software or upgrade costs. | Upgrades | Additional IT personnel costs to test and deploy upgrades. |
