Re: Looking for a reason to stay with Accountright
Yes Rachel it is a shame there is so much misinformation floating around Tall Emu! You may want to check your records before accusing others of misinformation regarding Tall Emu's performance and more specifically the integration with Woocommerce. When I found out Mike Nash was back and things had changed I contacted Tall Emu to have another crack at the integration - screenshot marked 1. I received a call from Amy Glendenning who specifically stated that there were issues with the Woocommerce integration. Once I got off the phone and digested the information I was pretty annoyed. I literally could not believe I was told that. I was so shocked I sent an email to her to confirm the conversation - screenshot 2 - to which I received no reply. So I fired off another email - screenshot 3. I did not receive a reply to this one either. Clearly there were issues with the Woocommerce and Tall Emu integration at the time of my first email. Prior to that, I wasted months trying to get it to work - documentation can be provided. The most annoying part was that Tall Emu kept trying to get more subscriptions out of me despite the fact that it didn't work - documentation can be provided. Anyway I hope this post clears up any misinformation29Views0likes0CommentsRe: Looking for a reason to stay with Accountright
Gday John, I am just putting the finishing touches on an integration with Retail Express (REX). This one flew under the radar when I was researching but it has an inventory system which in theory seems to work well. Won't know till I get it up and running. But it's features and functionality stacked up well against the other options. For example it allocates landed import costs by weight (unfortunately not by volume, but I have a work around). It integrates with MYOB, but all inventory is handled in REX. It writes back just the high level accounting entries to MYOB. In the integration stage it is so much easier working in it than MYOB. It also integrates with WOO and Starshipit. The pricing is excellent too. I was speaking to a bloke that did a WOO, Accumatica integration. I think you are looking at over $50K. So definitely have a talk to them. I reckon in a couple of weeks I will have it all up and running so if it interests you just let me know and I can give you an update.62Views0likes0CommentsRe: Looking for a reason to stay with Accountright
A question for MYOB employees - do you know of any plans to make MYOB easier to integrate to these various platforms? I would stay with Accountright and move to Neto but apparently there are hardly any MYOB users on that platform anymore. If there are no solutions, that is sweet, I will just have to reluctantly move to Xero.101Views0likes0CommentsLooking for a reason to stay with Accountright
As an accounting system I have no major issues with Accountright. Not perfect but does the job. However I am looking at streamlining workflows. Mainly purchasing and inventory management. Some basic CRM functionality would be good too. I tried Tall Emu when they were owned by MYOB. It didn't work. When Mike re-acquired the business and started making changes I inquired again. They said it doesn't integrate well with Woocommerce. Datapel doesn't do import allocations based on volume or weight like Unleased, Qblue, Neto etc does. Are there any other platforms anyone would recommend? Does anyone know if MYOB is planning on making Accountright easier to integrate? I was quoted $45 to $75K for an MYOB Acumatica solution. Am I the only one finding it hard to stay with MYOB as a growing business?156Views0likes6CommentsRe: tall emu reviews
Hi Natalie "I think the CRM capabilities are great on their own" - could you very briefly outline which parts you use. It is killing me extracting data with spreadsheets but the poor MYOB interface made it impossible for me. I would think that interfacing the two would be achievable, so I hope to give it another try one day.124Views0likes1CommentMYOB Online Invoice Payments
We invoiced a customer a customer in June and they ghosted us. So we deleted the invoice/sale after multiple attempts at contacting them. Today they decided to pay. I can't find this payment anywhere - the payments before and after are in our cheque account & undeposited funds. The payment in question is nowhere to be found. Just wondering if someone could point me in the right direction39Views0likes1CommentRe: tall emu reviews
Tall Emu was a terrible experience for me. Every existing customer duplicated, it could not allocate payments. It cost me close to $2k in onboarding monthly fees, months of trialing and it it never worked. I was mainly using it to link to my Woocommerce site. Which it did well, but the ironic thing was syncing to MYOB. MyIntegrator linked my website to MYOB and was working in a weekend. I use B14Cloud to get data out of MYOB. Plus use Starshipit for packing slips & shipping. Bit of a Frankenstein but it works unlike Tall Emu which promised the World and delivered an atlas. Hope that helps people with their solutions. In all my research I could not find anyone really singing Tall Emus praises.508Views1like0Comments
