"Pretty ugly and outdated UI, strange behavior when generating reports, paid support is lackluster"

2/5

What do you like best about AccountEdge?

Custom rules and easy backups. Decent tax compliance Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AccountEdge?

If you are using a modern Mac, Account Edge runs in a Windows emulator window that looks like Windows 95. Performance isn't great and reports take a long time to generate. Window management can be tough as well, I'm pretty sure having reports on multiple screens is impossible since it runs in a container. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I really really used to love it, but they are completely pathetic now"

0/5

What do you like best about AccountEdge?

It USED to be for Mac - and their support USED to be good. NOT ANY MORE. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AccountEdge?

HORRIBLE customer service.

I have been a customer since 2009. I had the WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE CALL IN MY LIFE TODAY.

I'm absolutely dumbfounded at how our call went. I called to discuss my options to upgrade. I'm a Mac user and wanted to know my options. She told me about the subscription service, which I already knew. I'm willing to try it, even though it looks like a very dated version of Windows on my Mac. Someone last year sent me a link to try it. I didn't have time to fuss with it because at the time I ended up having Covid and was sick, so it expired.

I asked her to reinstate the trial. She can't do that.

I asked her to speak with a manager. She can't do that.

I literally cannot use your product now unless I purchase it immediately and start the subscription.

After 13 years of being an AccountEdge (formerly MYOB), you're going to lose me, and when I told her this, she acted like she couldn't care less.

HORRIBLE. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering AccountEdge:

Look elsewhere. Again, I used to be a huge advocate of their company. I gladly paid the $199/year telephone support and always had EXCELLENT support. But that sure changed. Looks like I'm going to start looking for a new accounting system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is AccountEdge solving and how is that benefiting you?

The thought of moving to a new accounting system is overwhelming, considering I've had nearly 13 years using AccountEdge (former MYOB). I was with them since 2009. I called today to speak with someone about upgrading and because I had a trial last year and wasn't able to work with it, they can't give me another trial. I cannot believe I'm dealing with the same company I did a few years ago. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Desktop Accounting software for small businesses"

3.5/5

What do you like best about AccountEdge?

It can be considered as one of the best versions for mac. Many desktop versions are available for windows but not so many for Mac. So, It helps one to record transactions related to business on MAc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AccountEdge?

Not available for windows. Sofware works only for Mac, and also, it has no version available for Windows, so one needs to stick to mac to keep using it. Also, it is an offline version, so it restricts its usage to other platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Former AccountEdge Pro User"

1.5/5

What do you like best about AccountEdge?

AccountEdge Pro was easy to use and pretty simple to learn. I inherited the product from my account at MYOB and they really improved the product during that transition. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AccountEdge?

My biggest dislike of AccountEdge Pro was their lack of support for updating the Mac OS version every time there was a OS update. They didn't seem to have a viable competitor for a cloud-based solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering AccountEdge:

I would recommend comparing it to all the other competitors especially if you are a Mac-based business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is AccountEdge solving and how is that benefiting you?

AccountEdge Pro helped me get started in business and was a simple, locally-installed software for us. I was able to export reports for my accountant and manage my invoicing and bookkeeping without too much effort. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to use and simple to maintain"

3.5/5

What do you like best about AccountEdge?

AccountEdge is a very simple platform to perform all accounting duties...generate invoices, reconcile accounts and track spending. It's easy to find the reports that I need in a timely manner as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AccountEdge?

The one bad thing about AccountEdge is having to locate the company file every time I log on - we have our file stored on our server, so AccountEdge makes us locate it every time. Also, we are an all Mac office, so the recent updates with AccountEdge 2020 and the subsequent updates of Mac OSX has been problematic and preventing us from updating our computers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering AccountEdge:

Great product, but if you are a Mac user, beware - the latest updates won't work on the AccountEdge 2020 Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is AccountEdge solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am able to track expenses and manage our bank accounts and send checks very quickly without wasting any time. I believe this software makes me much more efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Long time user"

4/5

What do you like best about AccountEdge?

We have been using this software for about 20 years. It was originally called MYOB (Mind Your Own Business). It has grown and improved over the years. Fairly easy to use, although I have been stuck trying to figure out how to do things once in a while (i'm not an accountant). Good tech support if it's needed. They keep up to date on the Fed, State and Local Tax tables well. Bugs are patched quickly and they roll out updates in a timely manner. Constantly adding new features with each major release. We have a 3 seat license, and the main data file is located on a central server, This allows Purchasing, Payroll and Engineering to work at the same time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AccountEdge?

Requires a very reasonable (under $500 for 3 seats) annual subscription to maintain updates and tax tables for payroll. That's how they make their money. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
