Roles are one of the ways you can control access to records. They also impact reports (e.g. "My Teams" filter). Roles come into play if your security model (OWDs) are set to private. A little more on Roles and how they impact security:

1.profile is a set of authorization objects, but a role is a set of profiles.
2.In a profile we can add up to 150 authorization objects, but in role there is no limit.
3.Profile can not be manually editable, but role can be manually editable.
4.In a profile we can not create the user menu, but in role we can create the user menu.
5.profile is the subset of role, but role is not the subset of profile.
6.profile can be created only for the transaction codes, but in role we can add tcodes,web addresses,and reports etc.
