"A hosted solution within thier control"
Having the customer host a complex web application is likely going to be less secure then a hosted solution.
Consider the customer has to manage the code, applications that support the code (mysql, apache), manage the web server, and manage the physical security of the web server.

Absolutely, and corporations will never in a million years understand that, and they're willing to pay ten to twenty times as much for a "secure" internally-installed app (when you include the price of hardware, consultants, etc.)

Your data is safer hosted.
