We know the advantages of decentralized however what are the disadvantages of the Decentralized system that we should take note of while using this technology?

The redundancy required to make Bitcoin decentralized also makes it quite inefficient when compared to centralized databases. Many distributed nodes need to propagate and store the same data. This entails large bandwidth and storage costs for each node, which wouldn't be necessary in a centralized system.
