Both the Cloud and Installed versions of Insight allow you to access the information from virtually any web enabled device. The main differences between the two versions are price and how the solution is implemented.
Installed Insight
In order to allow any “non Windows PC” devices to connect to Insight, special software needs to be purchased and installed on the PC that Insight is running from. If you want multiple users to be able to connect and access Insight at the same time, there may be additional network licenses that will need to be purchased as well. While this typically costs more than the Cloud version to set up, it may be a better solution if you have very slow or unreliable internet connection.
Insight Cloud
The Cloud version of Insight already has all of the networking licenses as well as the software to support "non Windows" devices set up and running on our servers. As a result, there is no need to purchase additional software. You still own all of your information and you simply pay a low monthly subscription fee to access Insight. You can use Insight from as many devices as you want, however, if you require access from multiple computers at the same time, there is a slight increase in your monthly subscription fees for each additional concurrent user.
