I like being able to go back to prior entries to verify entries and edit any errors we have made in keying . > > **Cons**: No real dislikes, the longer I use it the more I like it. It would be nice if there was a routine to highlight duplicate entries. > > It was a bit difficult to set up since I am not an accountant, but the sample company file helped a lot. Now that it’s set up I find it easy to use. There are still features that we aren’t using that would probably increase its value to our operations. ----- ### "old-school user loves this software" — 5.0/5 > **RENEE** | *28 February 2026* | Apparel & Fashion | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Intuitive and easy to use. I use it for both business and personal finances. You can attach a bar-code printer and a receipt printer. > > **Cons**: I wish they had not gone to monthly billing. I preferred paying a lump sum. The fonts are small and sometimes hard to read. > > I have been using AccountEdge since 1993 when it was MYOB. I used it for a women's apparel store, a coffee shop, and a non-profit business. ----- ### "Accountedge Review" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *4 August 2022* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: This software is great for people who are not accountants and are looking for a simple bookkeeping and accounting software solution. > > **Cons**: Whenever they release an update there are plenty of bugs and a lot of features will not work until the bug is fixed. Last upgrade my outlook connection stopped working so I had to manually send out invoices. Also support is no longer what it used to be. They will force you to upgrade to the current version and also charge for any support unless you can prove that you are calling about a software bug. > > Overall this software is really good for people who want a simple bookkeeping and accounting solution. ----- ### "Our romance with AccountEdgePro is rocky" — 4.0/5 > **Karen** | *27 May 2024* | Farming | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10 > > **Pros**: AccountEdge Pro was purchased with the ability of installing on multiple machines on our farm and we were able to select multiuser login which worked brilliantly albeit with a couple of quirks. Having individual desktop setups (x5) means that we can use mesh network on the farm to link the desktops to input inventory transfers as the plants we grow we upsized or propagated. We do not have internet coverage from our Starlink satellite to these outlying desktops so web based subscription is not for us. The price was a one off payment which is a big thing for us as seasonal farmers we have money in the account some months and none at other months depending on the time of year. The linkage to Shopify was the big key selling point as it meant that staff could update our inventory immediately online using the sync link between the two software platforms from the main computer. This was important as we have stock in USA and Australia and saved a heap of admin time inputting all the stock levels in after team meetings - usually conducted with time difference issues. The feature of Inventory Variations was a gamechanger as we manufacture plants so having the different stages of plant growth as a variation in our inventory was key to the sales teams as we could easily reflect as to how far along the supply chain a plant was, therefore getting some accurate data for the customers. Previously we would have to go physically look and count plants, then call the customer back. Extra sales could be achieved with this accurate data as we could suggest an alternate plant if the customer wished for an earlier delivery. Job Codes were brilliant in separating out the different projects we were building on farm, or the research component of our business, and we could view how much a project was costing. This component disappeared when MYOB went web based approximately 6 years ago Having used the Australian MYOB since 1996 ,AccountEdgePro was an immediate replica with extras which made the transition really smooth. Been using AccountEdgePro since 2019 > > **Cons**: There were no Cons........ until last year. We purchased upgraded licenses for all five computers only to discover after much ado with getting the support (paid for), that the multiuser function even though present - does not work any more. Computers can be setup, viewed, given permissions etc, but using the outlying computers inputting data simultaneously as before is now only able IF the other computers are logged out. So essentially we purchased licenses that are basically useless as the main computer is logged on at all times. Tried to reinstall the older version only to find that once the account backup comes from an upgraded versions ....there is no going back\! Support then advised that we had to go web based. So no internet with 3 computers and monthly subscriptions for all computers that are active means that we cannot afford, nor manage 12 months a year, the fees. The Shopify link non existent now and we have been promised with a new solution since May last year. No notice was given, our customers started complaining that we had not sent them the plants that they ordered which was first indication that anything was wrong. This is costing us time to enter the data separately from two locations USA and Australia. Now we cannot access our account through the MyAccount page, we are geofenced to Australia MYOB page. The same for Community support and Support Team, which we have paid for. Speaking of payments, AccountEdgePro has gone down the path of web based monthly subscriptions. We avoid subscriptions like the plague as managing a once off payment when required is very manageable. So after a wonderful romance we are now working on no more upgrades. We have hired someone with Python knowledge to give us sync capability with Shopify. Thankfully I personally have database diploma and can work with the reports as csv imports from the outlying desktop computers around the farm, but this has taken up a fair chunk of time working on this. > > We used to deal with USA support team who were incredibly helpful. Recent telephone support is difficult to understand the language of the person, if it answers at all, and in most cases they fob you off by promising to ring back in 10 minutes, only to never receive the call. Chasing Support when we upgraded in 2023 was a three month exercise of hair pulling as we tried to integrate the multiuser function like the previous upgrade. Disappointed with the service and now we cannot even raise a Support page, or the Knowledge Page, or the Community Support Page. ----- ### "Accountedge Pro" — 4.0/5 > **Jim** | *26 September 2019* | Printing | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Very easy to use. Performs all required tasks Automatically. It’s reliable. Easy to navigate. Works very well. > > **Cons**: Lacks mobile integration- being able to use application on mobile device when on the toad or at a clients office. There are some functions available like looking up old invoices and jobs. But that’s about it. In this day and age portable applications are almost necessary. > > Accountedge Pro is easy to use and has all the features needed. It’s a good program. I have enjoyed using it. ----- Page: 1 / 5\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/13876/accountedge-pro?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/13876/accountedge-pro) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
