You wanting my bank credentials is your problem, not mine, until you succeed.
Running your own servers isn't free, especially if the task is more specialist. SaaSS gets me a guarantee and support that what I need will work. If something burns down, it's not my fault. Mistakes happen, but hopefully if the company is dedicated to providing that service then hopefully they'll make less mistakes than my sysadmin through just being more heads.
