What are the disadvantages of shared repository

[j_madhuri]

1.complexity increases when scripts are more.

2.it is mandatory to select Shared OR in qtp before
record/scripting.

3.while using Quality center it really becomes a trouble
because if any changes occur in qc then we also have to
made changes in file system.

4.if size of shared OR is too large then it is also a
problem in this case we have to go for descriptive only

5.when we working with shared OR if someone modified or
deleted the object information it ll effect another script.
