I am looking into software for a business and I've been given a few options from the software company. I can either (a.) purchase a web version that will allow me to access the software from a number of computer and will back-up the data constantly, or (b.) run a stand-alone version on my desktop which will NOT back-up automatically and will only be accessible to on that particular computer. The price on the standalone software is $1000. The price on the web version is $150/month.
I was speaking with somebody and they mentioned that I could purchase server space on Amazon or Rackspace for $30/month and then run the software off the server. This would essentially be akin to running the web version only much cheaper.
Does anybody have any thoughts on this?
