I agree!
Its been marketed as giving us more choice as to what account type we are on, so saving money if we don't use features.
However, if you had a company that was using all features, but now, nearing retirement is a quiet little 2 man operation, you can't downgrade to the features you use, because you USED to use payroll etc...
This is madness.
Another price gouging technique from MYOB. Seriously. You are just hoping we are all too busy or apathetic, to bother learning a different accounting software?
And if I get another advert from MYOB for a feature I don't want, while I am trying to work..... grrrrr and if it keeps coming up even if I tick 'got that don't show me again' double grrrrrr. So many reasons to hate MYOB.

We are a not for profit with mulitple accounts and received up to now a substantial discount on our 2nd and further accounts. We have just been informed that the discount is removed and we will start paying full price $136 per month for all our accounts from 1 June 2023. This means that for each account we pay a total of $1632 a year.
Our accounting software is going from a cost of $3,576 a year to $6,528 per year, an astounding 82% price increase.
Unfortunately that forces us to have to start looking for a cheaper solution for our accounting software.

Yes fully agree, once you are used to a higher version, it is really hard to downgrade. I have worked with MYOB Essentials in the past and it is very limited, especially if you want to do full reporting and the ability to analyse financial reports.
