MYOB DESKTOP ON THE GO

Hi Gem159, 

I can see how that would be something to think about when you're traveling. If you want the full AccountRight desktop version while you're away, a Windows laptop is the better option.

You can't install the desktop app on an iPad. If your file is online, you can still sign in on an iPad, tablet or phone using your browser at app.myob.com.

If you're only travelling for a short time and mainly need day-to-day access, the browser version may be enough. But if you rely on features that you normally use on desktop, or you'd rather stick with the layout you're already comfortable with, a Windows laptop will give you the closest match.

So the short version is:

• iPad = browser access only
• Windows laptop = desktop app or browser
• Browser can work well for short-term access, but desktop is still the better fit if you want the most familiar experience

I hope that helps you decide before your trip.

Regards,
Genreve

Hi Gem159​ 

Never too old to learn new tricks - I am well over 60s and still learning new tricks and software - the online version will work if you only going for a few days - it works but it is not as intuitive as the desktop version

There is another option and way more secure - if you know someone with a Server 2022 that can give you a profile on the server and a vpn access - then you simply vpn into the server - RDP and just run MYOB all from your ipad.

Thanks for your advice, I will do a little investigation into both iPads and laptops and go from there.

Thank you so much for your reply.  Don't know anyone with a Server 2022 unfortunately.  Have been trying to use Browser this morning and have managed to get scanned documents in my tray via email.  So pretty chuffed to have been able to do that!  Learning Curve level engaged!!! ha-ha
