That's cloud computing. Also known as the Internet.  For your organization's database that tracks donors, volunteers, clients and other vital information, Cloud-based systems are fine - as long as you have an offline backup of all of the information physically in your office, ready to access in case of emergency. Daily backups would be best, but even just a monthly backup would protect against disaster.
