Hi cat​
I'm a long time MYOB user who has mostly stuck with Classic Desktop versions (Perpetual licence) for clients & my businesses and I agree that the online (browser) versions are woeful to use for a small business. However, I have found the same problem with most of the browser accounts packages, so it doesn't seem to just be MYOB. Were you previously using AccountRight Desktop? If so, and you've had it for a really long time, you may have a Perpetual licence and be able to stay in your last Desktop version for free. This would mean you lose some online functions, such as automatic bank feeds, STP reporting, etc. but there are workarounds/alternatives that are free or reasonably priced for these. If you don't have a Perpetual licence, it seems that the only Desktop version is the expensive AccountRight and you may have to keep looking for a solution that is outside of MYOB. Good luck.
Cheers
