@james, those points you have raised can happen whether in-house or SAAS.

Just because a server is seated right there in your server room doesn't mean its any more secure than a virtual one seated across the world. In fact, it might be less secure.

Confidential data can be easily breached, all it takes is one rogue employee.

Skunks,
In my view, this is just selling pitch for Xero. What I always wonder is who answers the hard questions. What about data confidentiality when you put it in a cloud environment? What if all details of your clients are disclosed to a competitor? There are many questions that need answers especially before big corporations embrace SAAS. Its not just a question of convenience and price. In some cases someone needs to develop anĀ  in-house CRM.

regards,
