Online apps have some advantages in terms of being accessable from
almost any internet-connected computer (e.g., at a client location or
an out of town library,) or when you are collaborating with others.
There are other methods for sure (USB Flash drive, webmail, etc.) but
online apps supply another avenue when IT security measures limit some
options. It never hurts to have several ways to accomplish a task.
