Security: Web applications were generally considered more vulnerable

Scalability: Scalability of web applications was limited before technologies like AJAX, Web Services, compression, server side caching, database sharding

Performance: Most web applications especially PHP generally involved each user action submitting a form (or on Iframe) over the wire to the server and then waiting for server to parse response and send back a reply before proceeding.

Compliance: Due to lack of inbuilt tools that are commonplace in desktop development environments, web applications generally took more effort to obtain regulatory compliance

Licensing: Web applications involved installation of raw scripts, making licensing quite a handful for innovative companies.

Application State: Business applications generally require a stateful environment, which PHP and other scripting languages do not naturally possess.
