Yes, this is the case. But I do not believe that the cloud version can install custom made modules. Cloud should have access to all commercially released modules, but it is lacking the ability to upload and install a custom module. Additionally you do not have FTP access to the server, so you cannot setup your own customizations to the code.

As I understand the OP is asking about installing some custom module. If the module is in the marketplace it can be used on cloud, but if not you are out of luck. Downloadable versions do not have this limitation. Like I said, this is acceptable and normal for a cloud solution. Customers choose the cloud because they do not want to deal with their own server and customizing code.

With cloud, if it cannot be accomplished through CSS changes or a marketplace module, then it cannot be done.
