ArcGIS Server offers the following advantages:
- Lower cost of ownership through centrally managed, focused GIS applications that can scale to support many users.
- Browser-based access to GIS.
- Integration with other enterprise systems such as customer relationship management (CRM) or enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems using industry-standard software. ArcGIS Server provides the foundation for geospatially enabling a service-oriented architecture (SOA).
- Support for interoperability standards in both the GIS domain (Open Geospatial Consortium) as well as the broader information technology (IT) domain (W3C).
- Ability to create custom applications using .NET or Java.

ArcGIS Server complements ArcGIS Desktop by allowing GIS analysts to cost-effectively author maps, globes, and geoprocessing tasks on their desktop and publish them to ArcGIS Server using integrated tools. GIS functions can then be delivered as services throughout the enterprise.
