Advantages

A: Removing Hardware & Servers

There is a per user monthly cost for hosting your email. This means you won't need to store this data in a local environment, removing the requirement for a server.

A: Accessibility

You can access your data any when, anywhere. As long as you have an internet connection, you may preview or download your documents.

A: Disaster Recovery

Is included in the price. Your suppliers are only obligated to maintain the service and facilitate where your data is stored. Keep in mind this does not extend to your data, that is your responsibility.

A: Smarter functionality

Instead of sending files through email, you can send a web link to the file. This removes the worry about making the file as small as possible and makes the sharing process smoother.

Disadvantages

D: Charges

Your company may require more storage, if you reach and exceed your limit you may be charged excessively, unless changing your cloud solution beforehand.

D: Where Is Your Data?

Knowing where your data is stored is very important. If you are based in the UK and your data is in the US, you may be fined if your data doesn't meet GDPR rules.

D: Data Backups

While part of the Cloud service is backing up your data. The ultimate responsibility to ensure both your email and data have copies, is your own. If the Cloud has an outage and they can't recover your important information, it is likely lost and you will have to start again.

D: Broadband & Internet

If you have a bad internet connection, you won't be able to use a Cloud solution. You have to remember that the Cloud works by uploading and downloading your data to your local device. If you have slow broadband this will take either a long time, or won't happen at all.
