Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Most reviewers were let down by their experience overall. Many customers expressed significant dissatisfaction with the customer service, citing long wait times, unhelpful interactions, and a general lack of responsiveness. The cancellation process was a major point of frustration for many, with people reporting it as difficult and time-consuming, often requiring multiple calls and extended periods on hold. Reviewers also frequently mentioned issues with response times to support requests, finding them slow and often leading to unresolved problems. Some people were dissatisfied with the difficulty in contacting the company, particularly when trying to cancel services or resolve issues. Conversely, a few other people also felt that the system was easy to use and reliable, and some appreciated the ability for their accountant to access the platform.

The system is easy to use and reliable.

The system is easy to use and reliable.
The only thing I would like to make easier is to remove the “ Shipping Address” from the standard invoice.
Many invoices I issue don’t require a delivery of the items invoiced.

An employee changed his email address…

An employee changed his email address so to get his wage statement. I changed his email address in his information details and found the appropriate wage statements and pushed send. Did this twice and he did not receive them by email both times, yes I pushed save both times and the new email address stayed where it was. So then I had to find the statement's again which they seemed to not want to be found. Then download them into a PDF and then go into outlook and make an email to the employee with the wage statement's attached. All this over a 3 hour period texting each other to see if the emails went through, and all this after working on site all day. Not happy Jan!! Will this happen for the next pay, employee not getting emails after I have pushed send?

Direct Debit Bill Fail/issues

I have tried numerous times to link my bank account details in the accounts portal for the direct debit payment. I am frustrated that this keeps failing and then I get an overdue notice. Several attempts to have this rectified have failed. I should not have to keep taking to someone for something that should just work from the portal for a basic task.

Myob in the browser is great and the price is what made me switch from xero.
05/11/2025 - The invoice app on Android is like an afterthought, trying to do a new invoice it regularly won't fetch the contacts, with an "oops something went wrong". The only way to make it work is uninstall, then reinstall and login etc. which is a pain as I am on multiple clients/properties most days and want to invoice while I'm out working, not when I get home on the laptop. The 255 character limit in the description is a pain too.
The Capture app has started crashing this week too, it takes a photo of the receipt, then crashes and doesn't send.
I would love to use the invoice app on the go, but have given up on it due to the above.

lately I'm not happy

lately I'm not happy, I felt bullied into upgrading for invoicing when we don't even use MYOB for banking due to scammers!!we don't want our bank details in our account.
I kept ignoring it until I felt I felt I must get this or i won't be able to invoice customers anymore, we were thinking about not using myob anymore, but I wasted over an hour to phone MYOB to make sure they were not going to do anything if I didn't upgrade.

Thanks for your feedback Michelle. Secure invoicing is designed to enhance security and give customers more control over online payments, not less - this includes the option to opt out of online payments as well. Find out more on our website www.myob.com/au/support/myob-business/sales/receiving-payments/online-invoice-payments and if you need a hand with options, reach out to the team online myob.com/contactus.

Thankyou Shanika!!

Shanika is patient and kind, and she has guided me through all of my sticky situations. I am grateful to have her as a backup. She doesn't judge, she is an expert in the program and she follows up on anything she thinks I need extra help with. I can't thank her enough.

Higher Subscription but lower performance

Increasing issues from slow performance to always needing to close.
Back up prompt issues still appearing after 2 years MYOB doesn't seem to want to find a fix.
Subscription cost increase but useability is getting worse & worse

Hi Robert, if you have been using our software for a long time, perhaps you are on an older unsupported version? We have invested a lot into the stability and performance of our software and have seen great results over the last 12 months so we are surprised to hear this. If you have our desktop software, there are also some options available to try and speed up the file like clearing the AccountRight cache. Jump on to our community forum or get in touch with the support team to see how we can help. Thanks

You'll be paying for the bare minimum in functionality.

After 4 years of usage below my review:

0 - customer service
0 - functionality
0 - customization
0 - export functionality
and so much more...

It's just horrible to use... And god forbid you want to export your OWN data... for example bulk exporting of contacts, uploads or even invoices is literally not possible... I had to write scripts to export things.

DONT USE MYOB. Use Xero! You'll thank me later.
