Can we please have offline backups back? I don't like the idea of having everything in the cloud and having no control whatsoever over MY datafile.
Spot on Lisadgs! Amanda - you are not listening.
My understanding from discussions with my account is that you absolutely do have your data written over.
I don't understand why I in the past I have been able to choose if I wanted to back up to the cloud or locally and now I cannot. This system suited me just fine; I could have the cloud on most occasions and keep a local back up at least once a month just in case. We have seen multiple examples of security breaches in large companies recently. I would feel much safer if I could put a ring around a local back just in case of a MYOB security breach.
MYOB needs to stop telling customer what they SHOULD WANT and listen to what the DO WANT. I want the ability to locally backup. I know the software supported this not that long ago - reinstate that functionality asap please!
Yes and the other thing is that whilst we could do a backup of our "current day" MYOB datafile, name it carefully, restore an older backup which overwrites our "current day" data, review what we need to and then restore the "current day" backup, BUT this is fraught with danger and risk of error. Not everyone is as understanding or methodical and this seems like a SEVERE RISK of losing potentially endless amounts of "current day" data and costing HOURS upon HOURS of time to get back.
This is not a solution MYOB. We need the option to keep our current day data untouched and out of harms way and restore a backup as a separate file that can be read only and reviewable. This should go to the top of the PRIORITY list. Thank you
