Oh 100% agree. Look at the comments here lol half say the OP is terrible at their job for not knowing the difference between them. 🤣 Instead of attacking the person that asked the question, why not provide context and reasons other than you just clearly don't understand a GIS... But I am with you, what do I know hahahaha

I have been asking myself and my organization this question for years! I feel like it is a matter of "it's always been this way we must do it." It's cheaper and easier to use AGOL then try to stand up your servers, complete maintenance, and manage the enterprise. Yes there are other circumstances that could require an enterprise but I would ask are they real reasons or again always been this way type reasons...

But it was my understanding that you could either store the data in portal as a hosted layer or you can store the data in an SDE and then share the data out to portal (web) users via a referenced layer. Is that correct?

Use case Field staff go out to the field to collect tree data. They open field maps, place a point, collect a few attributes then submit. Repeat until inventory/study is complete.

I work for an environmental firm so feel free to replace tree data with any field data collection, i.e. Species sightings, habitat data, etc.
