Repetitive processing - e.g. Processing the payroll run on a computer for a large organisation or mailmerge, Data storage capacity - e.g. all the information about students in a large college will fit on one small hard drive., Accuracy - e.g. in a spreadsheet if formula and data are correct then calculations will be correct, Speed of data communications - e.g. an email can be sent from the UK to the USA within seconds., The ability to produce different output formats - e.g. a scientist producing a report will include data in a table and to make some of them easier to understand will produce some of them as graphs., Ease of updating data - e.g. if someone changes their address the details can be altered quickly without having to re-write the whole record, Allows predictive analysis  - e.g. analysis of sales patterns will influence choice of stock sent to supermarkets., Easier to back up data  - e.g. Suitable backups can be performed at set times and in one fixed location, e.g. customer orders can be backed up on RAID systems,
