Amazon.com Review As is often the case with enterprise solutions, this product consists of two separate applications. The core package, Crystal Reports 8.5 Developer, is for accessing the contents of database tables and generating reports based on their contents. Wizards make this process extremely easy. You just specify the database you want to operate on, which can be local or accessible via an Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) link. Having done that, you can choose the tables and fields you want to extract values from. The wizards make it easy to specify which fields should serve as headers, and simplify the process of doing calculations on extracted values. In a report on the monthly sales of a multinational chain of stores, for example, you could group individual stores' sales figures by country, and calculate total sales figures for each country and for the chain as a whole. Wizards also handle formatting, so it's pretty easy to get neat-looking reports customized with your organizational logo. Wizards aren't limited to tabular reports: you can use them to generate reports that reveal details in response to clicks (so-called drill-down reports) and personalized form letters for mass mailings. Going beyond the wizards, Crystal Reports 8.5 Developer offers a tool for visually creating joins among tables (by which you can consolidate the fields in multiple tables into a single report). It also makes it relatively easy to build SQL queries, mostly by exchanging syntax memorization in favor of a logically organized set of expandable trees from which you choose the commands you want. With SQL queries, you can do things like find the maximum value in a field across many records, or perform complicated text-searches on the contents of text fields. Managers and others who have been taught to revere database queries as a black art known only to database administrators will be delighted by the ease with which they can create reports to support their business decisions. The other product in this package is Crystal Enterprise 8, which is capable of taking report documents from Crystal Reports and distilling them into publications that it then serves to network users. There are several ways to go about preparing reports for network publication, the simplest being nearly automatic conversion of Crystal Reports documents into Dynamic HTML (DHTML) files that standard Web browsers can read. With a little more work, Crystal Enterprise will serve reports in streaming form--meaning they're updated dynamically as their underlying data changes. It'll also generate Adobe Acrobat (PDF) files, as well as reports delimited by Extensible Markup Language (XML) tags. The XML feature is especially cool, because it means you can use Crystal Enterprise as an engine for generating business documents (such as invoices and purchase orders) that are fed to business partners via an XML-based information-exchange system, such as Microsoft BizTalk Server. Because it's easy to use and flexible in its output, Crystal Reports 8.5 Developer Edition belongs in the toolkit of anyone who's responsible for sharing complicated information--especially numerical information--with others via a network. --David Wall | |

Amazon.com Product Description An indispensable tool for small business owners, MYOB Plus 12 lets users create and track everything imaginable: customer accounts, banking, sales, POs, and so on. It also generates comprehensive reports so business owners know exactly where they stand at any time. With additional network licenses available, MYOB is ready to be shared across a peer-to-peer network so multiple users can enjoy its many merits. A business owner, for example, might want the company's payroll manager orinventory manager to share the MYOB accounting and tracking system. With MYOB Plus 12, it's possible. Reviews (5)
The first two were just perfect. Everything that I needed were present in the software. On the third however, when the business really became good that we had to open four separate outlets and correspondingly four storage warehouses, I cound not find in the system the option of having more than one Warehouse location. Recently, I'm about to implement on an aircon and refrigeration business where multiple warehouse and parts sub-categories are required in the inventory, I'm again having difficulty making the setup perfect. Also, I want to see that Philippine Tax table and other government mandated deductions for payroll are captured so that we can also effectively use the Payroll module. I hope MYOB will look at my comments. I will also be interested to enter into some business relationship with MYOB since I am bringing their business to the Philippines. I still have other friends I intend to help and I consider MYOB as a good option.
MYOB doesn't support LIFO or FIFO. It can only track inventory on a rolling average cost basis (Quickbooks is similarly limited. Peachtree Complete Accounting has LIFO as an option.). While average cost inventory isn't bad, if you want/need LIFO, you're SOL with MYOB. MYOB help doesn't even mention the concept of LIFO! (As an aside: LIFO, FIFO, and specific cost valuation methods are approved by the IRS under Regulations 1.471-3, where inventory is valued at cost. Average cost is probably approved for most businesses, as long as average cost is acceptable within your industry and as long as it fairly states a company's income. In cases where a company has aging inventory (such as wine, I suppose), average-cost might not be acceptable for IRS taxation purposes. But, if you're dealing with inventory that must be aged, you probably have a custom inventory program. Check with your accountant if you're unsure if you can use average cost for taxation reporting purposes.) An annoying aspect of the program is the convenient list of drop down names for customers that is provided when entering sales. This works great if you have only a few key customers, but if you serve many, many different customers, you'll find the drop down list far too long to be able to quickly locate your most common sales accounts. It would be nice is there were some classification, categorization, or nesting of customers, so that only key accounts would display when adding sales. (Maybe there is, but I haven't found it yet.) I tried creating a "customer" named "individual sale" and using it for multiple customers. But this method is inherently dangerous, because payments could be attributed to the wrong customer. So, you're stuck with long drop down lists. Also if you're entering customer payments, there's no button to easily add a customer credit. (You can do it elsewhere.) If payments are made in excess of money owed, MYOB chalks it up to "Finance Charges," if you aren't careful. A button "create customer credit" would be nice. (For prepaid orders, when a payment is entered along with the sale, you're given the ability to immediately issue a refund or else create a credit. "Issue Refund" immediately opens your checkbook to write the check, which is handy. But, if customers overpay after being invoiced, it's a bit less convenient.) Other than that, I like the layout of this program. There's a "bank" feature that allows you to "spend money" which mimics your checkbook. You can "make deposits" of "undeposited" funds, which essentially mimics holding checks and then depositing them. "Receive cash" is handy for entering revenue you want to match with a particular income account, but that doesn't relate to a customer payment for a product or service. (For example, if you're an Amazon associate, you might have an income account "Amazon Associate Income." Then, when you receive your Associate payment, you can use "receive money" to attribute this money to that income account.) Sales are easily entered, as are customer payments. Payments for sales should be entered under the "Sales" section. And, you're allowed to allocate payments to multiple invoices in any way you desire. However, while your own invoice number is listed as you're allocating payments, the PO of the company making the purchase isn't available. You'll need to go to another window to get it. So, if a payment received only has the other company's PO number and not your invoice number, you'd need to do some clicking around to attribute the payment properly. It would be nice to show the customer's PO when allocating payments to various invoices. Of course, you can create your own accounts, delete accounts you don't need, and examine balances in your accounts. When in doubt, for those who are more familiar with accounting, under "Accounts" there is a place to record journal entries directly. For example, if you must deduct $4 as a bank service fee and aren't sure where else to do it, you could manually credit your checking account $4 and debit the expense account "bank charges." (And, you could examine your balances in the expense account and checking account to be sure you entered it correctly.) You can create templates of frequently used journal entries. You can always delete a journal entry and start over or reverse transactions to maintain an audit trail. And, you can examine the transactions you've made. For your starting set of accounts, MYOB allows you to import a set, create your own set, or start with a template set of accounts appropriate to various types of businesses, such as newspaper publishers, etc. Overall, this is a very good program. The other reviewer pointed out the support options, and that's very true. But, to an extent, I think we'll run into that with most accounting programs today. You're asked to pay ... for annual support. You get 30 days of support free. I took off one star because MYOB lacks LIFO inventory capability. If you don't need LIFO and you're comfortable with basic double-entry bookkeeping, MYOB might be right for you.

MYOB is much easier to use. Straightforward approach to doing anything. Entry forms are much easier to use than QB. Something else that always bothered me was QB was always trying up upsale me with support at a zillion dollars a year. I had a simple question once that was NOT covered in the Qucik Books maual or online help. Quickbookss wanted $ to answer the question which would have taken less than two minutes! Really ... me off. I haven't set up my books completly yet but have been working on it for the last three days non stop. I can tell you that as far as easy of use, it's light years ahead of QB. Quick Books, their tech support, and their upsale attempts, are going in the trash this week. MYOB has made a GREAT product! I haven't used all the report features yet but I think for my needs (small business doing $500K or so a year) that it will be fine. Anyone want to form a Quick Book haters support group? I'd be the first to join! David
Pros: Cons: Overall:
I got MYOB Plus so that I could figure out how to stop giving my accountant so much money to do my books. Little did I know that doing my own books would lead me to various time-saving procedures that makes my business processes more efficient. These accounting software companies like to talk about these 20,000 foot-level virtues of using their software but in this case, I've found it to be true. My staff and I save probably an hour a day using MYOB Plus as an estimates & invoicing tool. Bottom line, I can email estimates & invoices to customers right from MYOB - rather than doing this by hand, using fax machines, getting busy signals, re-sending, etc.. I've also discovered something called a ToDo list which provides immeasurable value to the running of my business. And, the reason I got it in the first place, I now have the ability to get financial reports whenever I want them - and at no extra cost. Of course, I've also discovered the really neat sales and receivables reports so I know who owes me what and when. I now wonder how I did all of this before I went with this accounting software. ...

Amazon.com Review We test-drove MYOB Plus from start to finish, tackling as many tasks as possible, from initial company set-up to invoicing clients. Two approaches made us feel comfortable immediately: the New Company File and Set-Up Assistants were both typical wizard-like interfaces that walked us through selecting our company type, creating records for customers, and choosing our accounts. The second method, which we used for general sale and project entry, is a handsome graphical interface that presents the user with types of tasks in common language such as "Receive and Spend Money." Just about every type of business is represented; we set up a freelance writing company, but there were also countless options for other types of businesses as diverse as landscaping, pet grooming, copy centers, religious organizations, restaurants, and many more. Each company type comes equipped with a set of common accounts for that type of operation (ours included specific accounts for "Writing Income," "Editing," and"Consulting"). After setting up the initial company file, diving into sale and project descriptions was easy. Projects (or jobs) are stored with numeric references and can be tracked throughout their progress. Activity slips that are tied to specific employees made it easy to figure out billable hours and job completion. The integration between sales details, accounts, purchases, payroll, and jobs was truly seamless, which lent a comforting feeling of control to the entire process. The invoicing process was superb: an inviting screen with clear options helped us create a professional-looking invoice, complete with an automatically tracked invoice number, which we were able to export (to file, fax, or e-mail). The output is a clean PDF file that prints clearly. While MYOB Plus follows all standard Windows conventions for file management, copying, pasting, and other commands, we found certain portions of the interface to be confusing and awkward. When entering a new customer, the only text field present is one for the customer name. Other fields only appear after pressing Tab or Enter; clicking the mouse on the next field label has no effect. Despite certain UI inconsistencies, we found this package to be extremely accessible, even to novice accountants, sales managers, project leaders, or any combination of these. --Emilie Herbst Reviews (9)
Not being an accountant, and not having a lot of spare money (or time!) to spend on dud software, I was a little dubious about these things, but I am pleased to report that MYOB has filled my needs perfectly. That's probably because MYOB was aimed precisely at small businessmen like me. It is easy to learn, the user interface is intuitive and welcoming, and it is supremely powerful. It will keep my accounts for me, as well as help me grow my business, with a wide range of reports and analysis tools. The manual and the various start wizards held my hand as I did tasks for the first time, until I gained the confidence to fly by myself. And I needed confidence, because even simple activities such as entering my first invoice filled me with the horrors. What if I got it wrong? Would my customers laugh at me? Would my accountant slug me thousands of dollars to unsnarl the mess when the time came to prepare my tax return? Happy to report no mess, no fuss, no worries. This is not the hassle I feared - in fact it is kind of fun, and I frequently look through the reports to see my business growing before my eyes. Thanks, MYOB!
The product is getting better all the time, but the user interface has some shortcomings. For instance you cannot view another time billing screen, without closing out the current one, which is a problem if you store notes, and are billing a client based on time. In this case you have to stop the billing timer in order to see the notes on another item. The MDI interface works well, and all screens are refreshed at once if you change details. I am also able to remove entries and re-enter them which is good since I am an engineer and not an accountant. I am finding that MYOB is good for keeping an eye on cash flow - something important for all businesses. Wish List... Overall a good product
You can even use this as a manual entry POS software for small biz checkout. Downloads or uploads text file spreadsheets. Much less expensive than oter MRP systems. ... Read more | |
