| Network system will not demaged if one node fails | If hub is demaged /corrupted then the entire network system will be failure |
| Complex design | Simple |
| Expensive | Cheaper |
| Difficult installation and reconfiguration | Easy installation and reconfiguration |
| High data security | less data security |
| Commonly used for WAN | Commonly used for LAN |
