QuickBooks has gone that route. They still grudgingly sell desktop apps, but really push people towards their cloud version. Besides all the benefits you mention, it's a steady monthly income. Hence why Microsoft and Adobe are also going that route. Apple too. But, we're a small company, and it would involve hosting other people's vital data. Risk of outages, security breaches, compliance and privacy issues. It would require much more skill to maintain. In a way we are gambling on a huge breach happening to Intuit some day. Then suddenly we look really, really good.
