The advantages are (1) no cost, (2) security updates are left to Google, (3) response time of the site is left to Google, but the speed is maintained, (4) own domain is supported, (5) SSL is supported, and so on. (5) SSL support.
Disadvantages include (1) limited (few) themes and other designs, and (2) little room for performance tuning (the flip side of advantage (3)).
