Thank you for getting back to me Doreen.
I am frustrated that the desktop and online versions integrate so poorly. It is very disappointing and difficult to understand why the two systems are so dissimilar. I would have expected the transfer of customised invoices from the desktop version to the online version to be a very basic and essential feature.
I have heard from many people that Xero is easier to use than MYOB, however I have stayed with MYOB because it is what I am familiar with. If I now need to learn an entirely new MYOB online system anyway, I think I will seriously consider moving to Xero, as it appears it may be a better long-term fit for our business.
