There are many benefits to staying on property if you are going to Disney World. There are extended hours that the park is open to you, transportation (door to door) between your resort and the parks, charging abilities to your room key, resort deliveries of purchases made on property, Magical Express option where you check bags at your home airport and never need to be bothered with them until you arrive at the resort, etc. It really is a great option if you are going to spend the majority of your time on Disney property. If you have alot of non-Disney plans, it may be a better option to stay off site and choose other amenities in place of all the Disney ones.
There are some amazing off-site properties in the Orlando area that offer so many different choices. If you want to save a little, staying off site may be the answer. While odds are you will have to have a car and probably pay for parking, sometimes the savings can still be worth it. I have rented a three bedroom house with private pool less than 5 minutes from Disney for less than the cost of the Disney value resorts.
Every trip is different, there is not right or wrong answer. Some situations I would say definitely a better value to stay on property and others not.
