With the web browser open it’s easy to get sidetracked and forget what you were supposed to be doing in the first place.

Greater privacy on desktop applications rather than online

All the data in desktop applications are stored on your computer therefore only you have the permission to access, read, write, and share them.

They can be unreliable. If your Internet connection is slow, you might have trouble accessing. Not everyone can afford the cost of a strong and reliable Internet connection.

Online versions are on the rise but still lag in available capabilities.
