August 19, 2023 5.0 They are no problems about it , in my experience with the application is a good way for respect your financial ways Pros By AccountEdge any one can learn the best way for accounting his business management, it’s a good thing for analyzing financial services Cons It’s good for his skills, the way for using is a better ways ..! Review Source JH Jason H. CFO/MCA Real Estate Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Good product if you have accounting background" February 24, 2022 4.0 I really want to like this software more but their lack of development in several areas make that difficult. In many ways it is much better and more secure than Quickbooks so if that is the target product you are researching then this might be a good alternative for you and your business. As you should with any software like this do your research and plan out what your needs are and how you plan to use it to make sure this is the right thing for you. Pros Overall AccountEdge is a pretty straightforward product with regards to accounting. Its major strengths are budgeting and the input of that data, financial reporting (monthly books) and accounts payable. Cons There are some bigger issues that I am not a fan of with AccountEdge and in my 26 plus years of doing accounting I can say there are some poorer products but there are a lot of much better ones as well. Accounts receivable and the vendor/customer input needs some serious updating. We recently did an import of our data from the old owners to the new owners and it took the developers some serious time to get that figured our and fixed even after we were told it was not that difficult of a process by support. There is not mass way to remove and customer/vendor profiles. The billing system, if you want to give your customers the ability to be sent their month invoices and make payments, actually resides in another product, Account Edge Connect not in the base Account Edge. With that being said they only talk to each other with a manual "sync" each time you want them to update the other. There is no way to export data to a banking website for things like Bank of America's positive pay. So ACH's are a very manual process. If it was 10 years ago I could see why this wouldn't be a feature but its 2021 folks and this should be able to be done at this point. Especially with how virtual we all have to be nowadays. Support is hit or miss. There are a few really awesome folks and then again not so much. They offer no after hours support so you better only have an issue between 9am-5pm eastern time, otherwise you are stuck. Review Source LJ Lonny J. Owner Alternative Medicine Used the software for: 2+ years ### "User for 30 years" April 3, 2024 3.0 2\. I paid $7K for a shopify site because Accountedge advertised they supported Shopify. For years I could open software, hit a button and my accounting was done. Now sometimes t takes HOURS a day to enter my shopify sales because shopify says accountedge "fell out of compliance." Again Accountedge said they were developing an app that would synch my store but it, like the native mac version, is NEVER coming. They have a protocol for exporting sales from shopify and importing them into accountedge but support has refused to guid me through it. Their directions are unintelligible and they simply won't help. Absolutely HORRIBLE support for a 30 year customer that invested 7K in a site based on their say so. Pros Gets the job done, lets me do whatever I need to do. Cons 1\. Accountedge discontinued native support for mac when it went to 32 bits and have been saying for about 5 years "we are working on a native version. " The DOS shell it currently operates in is awful and makes me feel like Im back n 1995. It's the slowest program on my computer. I call support 2x a year and it's always the same old thing "they are working on it." I was just told "As soon as we complete a project Apple makes a change to their OS so it slows us down. " Yeah well keeping programs current with each new OS is how computers work. Accountdege does anything I need but, on a MAC it's a miserable experience.

Pros I like the ease of use, clean interface, payroll liability payments and other features, like recurring transactions, that are similar to Quickbooks. Price is fair and support is helpful. I like that you can attach documents, but if their location is moved, its no longer accessible within AccountEdge. Cons Not online or bank feed friendly, no full-service payroll option. Report customization is extremely lacking. Alternatives considered [QuickBooks Online Advanced](https://www.capterra.com/p/189398/QuickBooks-Online/) Reason for choosing AccountEdge Capabilities with reasonable pricing Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Chief Creative Officer Photography Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Longtime user. Could be better, but has been solid for us." September 11, 2018 4.0 Generally good. Been using it for over a decade and it meets the needs of our publishing and consulting business just fine. Pros Fairly customizable to meet our unique needs. Love that payroll and inventory tracking are built in, not some extra service. Also tax forms (which are an additional fee), and credit card processing (but would be nice to use Stripe instead). Just added kits for inventory, which is long overdue. Basically it's one stop shop for us and meets all accounting, inventory, POS needs for phone sales. Cons That it is not an entirely online software solution so that we could easily (at no extra cost) access and work with data anywhere. That it does not integrate seamlessly with our ecommerce software (only works with Shopify, which is a more expensive and less flexible option than Bigcommerce). The tax form should integrate more seamlessly and be part of the monthly support fee.

Pros I'm stuck with it. We started with a much earlier version. Cons Trying to find prior years' transactions is costly and a huge pain. Review Source Response from Priority Software US September 13, 2018 Good Afternoon, I'm sorry to hear that you are having trouble with access historical transactions.

Pros Works great for us Mac users and the features improve with every upgrade. Cons Have to customize forms with every upgrade.

Pros AccountEdge Pro has made a work of difference in my company. With their easy to use dashboard, I can enter purchases, invoice customers, pay bills, create payroll, keep an accurate accounting of my banking and so much more. It is simple to use... even I can do it! It's a huge time saver and in the five years that I have been using AccountEdge, I have never had an issue. Cons Not a big deal but there have been a couple of times when I have had to realign the check printing format. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Owner Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "very good overall" September 11, 2018 5.0 i believe the key word is "control" of the business finances through generally simple, user-friendly management of income, expenses, financial reports and tax preparations for the accounting firm. Pros generally user-friendly even for those like I who are not accounting-knowledgeable, good, patient, friendly accounting/tech support. although MYOB ownership and name has changed over the years, service quality, continuity and evolution has been smooth and positive. Cons a little expensive for a single person business and a couple of times there have been two situations where accounting support instructions to solution have not worked - albeit only twice over all these years.

I am only a Mac user. Cons I wish the decimal point floated. I know that that sounds silly but it would be nice. Plus, there needs to be a better way to put in "online" payments in check book. I only use checkbook and payroll. All the rest is a waste for me. Review Source BP Bonnie P. Office Manager Packaging and Containers Used the software for: 2+ years ### "AccountEdge Pro review" September 10, 2018 5.0 We have used AccountEdge for over 20 years. (When it was originally MYOB). It works with our small business very well for the price we pay. We tried another software that cost 10 times as much and it wasn't user friendly at all and had a lot of issues. Will stay with AccountEdge. Pros It is easy to use and figure out even without a manual Cons The inventory module puts a reversing entry in when you receive material and you have to take it out. Review Source Response from Priority Software US September 13, 2018 Hi Bonnie, Our Inventory tracking in AccountEdge should not be requiring you to manually make any changes because of a reversing entry. I spoke with our technical support team and they would need more details to fully understand what is happening in the software. You can reach out to our support team at accountedge.com/help for free to get this figured out. Thank You - AccountEdge Customer Care GS Glen S. Owner/President Automotive Used the software for: 2+ years ### "AccountEdge Pro/The best ever!" September 10, 2018 5.0 I have had this software since early 90's when it was MYOB (Mind Your Own Business). Loved the name! I had already gotten Quicken and was lost from the start. I didn't even install it to my computer, it was so confusing. MYOB/AccountEdge was so easy to set up. It took me no time at all to be up and running. I waited a year or so to get the payroll module... what a mistake. I should have gotten it at the same time... again... easy , easy , easy. I was spending hours upon hours doing payroll, withholding, employee records...etc... got set up... now it only takes me minutes. Love it! Pros Easy to set up, easy to use, easy to understand, just plain easy. Cons It has too much? lol. I don't use a lot of the features that are available, but if I need something, it is there.

Pros Mac-focused. Easy to use. Easy to understand. Cons After 20+ years of supporting Mac users, they just dropped us. Reason for choosing AccountEdge theie Mac history Review Source SG Sandra G. Secretary Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great Customer Support" September 10, 2018 5.0 Pros I manager the office of a small company. We were using QuickBooks. Since their customer support was less than helpful and not based in the States, when we switched our computer system, I switched our accounting software to AccountEdge. The three big keys for me was that AccountEdge had customer service available here in the States that can be reached easily with a phone call, the price is reasonable, and they have a decent program. Cons Corrections and adjustments are more difficult to make. Review Source TI Tom I. Pres. Wholesale Used the software for: 2+ years ### "AccountEdge Pro Long-Time User" September 10, 2018 4.0 AccoutEdge Network Edition allows us to use multiple workstations to manage our daily sales, payables, and biweekly payroll. Pros Comprehensive for what we need it for. All cash accounts, including checking; receivables; payables; payroll; and more. Cons We've used it for so many years that we've gotten very used to it. Because we don't have a learning curve anymore, I don't have complaints. It would be better if it integrated more easily into our database, or Excel. Review Source JuP Jong un P. Marketing Used the software for: 2+ years ### "We use AccountEdge at work and it works okay" October 3, 2017 4.0 Easy to use and good accounting software over all. Pros It is really easy to use. Most of the new employees have learned how to use it efficiently quickly so far. Cons Not being able to set 'search by' is the big one. Whenever sales team take orders, they have to type in the description of the products when taking an order or looking it up. Would be great if we could set 'search by item name' and 'contains' instead of 'starts with'. Review Source JB Jeremy B. Attorney Law Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "AccountEdge Pro review " September 11, 2018 5.0 I have been very happy with AccountEdge Pro since moving from another piece of software that could not easily handle retainers. I run a law office and this feature is very important to keep track of clients deposits. Pros I enjoy the number of features, like the built in payroll option, custom invoices, and the ability to handle retainers. Cons The software can take some time to learn to use if you are not familiar with accounting rules. Review Source JD Jeanette D. Controller Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Accountedge for a non profit" January 26, 2017 5.0 As a new user, I had the opportunity to use customer support for free for only 30 days. Sometimes it is frustrating to not be able to turn to someone with a question, but anyone with a lot of accounting experience can easily use the software. One of the pluses for our non profit, it that our payroll service is linked with our accounting software and they process out monthly and quarterly returns very inexpensively.
