Online Scanning Services Vrs. Stand Alone Applications

Hey all,

I have a question, which is two fold. First can anyone point me to
comparison articles of online scanners (such as Foundstone) vrs.
standalone applications such as ISS? I am looking for technical
comparisons not a treatise on the benefits of someone managing your
scanning for you or not.

The second part of the question is, are their any technical advantages
between the two setups? I understand this overlaps with the first question
but I ask this after having searched for good writeups and came out with
very little.
