Summary: Excellent accouting solution for small businesses
Review: I notice that I'm the only user giving this software a favorable review. Here's why: 1) Powerful inventory management, 2) Easy, intuitive interface, and 3) cross platform compatible data file. I use the Mac version to manage ALL aspects of our small manufacturing business. We make sophisticated computer displays that contain many components. MYOB supports this with its Auto-Build feature - removing items from inventory automatically. And it's support for tracking the details and history of a particular inventory item is unmatched (unless you spend thousands on a customized solution). Creating and managing purchase orders and sales are effortless and MYOB keeps things organized. Unlike other reviewers, I found the software extremely easy to use - far more than Quickbooks. Some users may have think that MYOB is unforgiving with mistakes but that's how it keeps you in line - some transactions must be reversed and cannot be deleted. It's important to note that if you're used to using spreadsheets and Word files and your check book to manage your business, MYOB may seem overwhelming at first. But give it a try. I'm writing this review after using it for about a year and a half. It manages all aspects of our business, which is doing quite well I might add. Finally, as we've grown we've added more users. The MYOB data file is completely cross platform compatible between Mac and Windows versions.

I'm NOT an accountant, I have no accounting experience, and I feel strongly that MYOB has been invaluable to helping our business move forward. I highly recommend this software.

Summary: Slow, Slow, Slow
Review: I upgraded from v2 with great enthusiasm. All I got was the run around.
An invoice that took 15 seconds to process on v2 takes 1 1/2 minutes to
process on v3. Called tech support to inquire about the problem, They said it should run faster than v2, fax computer configuration. Did that twice. No answer. emailed my account file. One week latter, still were to busy to look at it. O yes, if you want to use multi-user platform you must buy another computer to act as the server only.

Summary: Truly disapointed with MYOB
Review: This company is blind to the need to produce quality products and give good customer service. Firstly, the software is not customizable to the degree we in the Mac community have come to expect. For example, you cannot even resize the windows. When asked why not, customer service tried to blame it on Apple saying that they had written my version, #2, before OS X was released. When asked if they had a fix for this bug the surly girl at "customer service" said that I would have to buy the upgrade for this "feature". This is just one example of poor customer service [another is a minimum $... charge for help]. I say enough... I'm swiching, at great cost, to quickbooks.

Summary: Not made for Mac
Review: When you purchase Macintosh applications you expect the applications to carry forward the ease of use that you have come to expect form Mac's. This product falls short of that goal. The user interface is very difficult to figure out on it's own, and referring to the users manuals is of no use. The manuals only give repetitive and very basic info that is useless when you have a specific problem or question. I have Managed My Own Business for years just using Excel, I had hoped switching would make things simpler. The auto import feature for importing bank and credit card statements is a joke. From what I have heard from users of QuickBooks 5 is that they are no better off. Hey Apple how about your new app being iAccountant!
