Another issue worth considering is availability. Public cloud services suffer outages just as in-house and outsourced services do - the difference is that you currently have less control and backup with the cloud. Cloud SLA's are written for the mass market. Your ERP is critical to your business and anything but a commoditised offering. These issues will be addressed as the cloud market matures but for now I wouldn't bet my organisation on the cloud. Some good points. Another issue worth considering is availability.
