Why switch
MYOB has been around since 1991 and it shows. OneBookPlus is built with modern web technology — clean, intuitive, and fast. No clunky menus, no confusing workflows. Just simple, beautiful software that works the way you'd expect in 2026.
MYOB's mobile app is a stripped-down version of their desktop product. OneBookPlus is designed mobile-first so every feature works beautifully on your phone. Send invoices on-site, check bookings between jobs, and manage your business from anywhere.
MYOB only handles accounting and invoicing. OneBookPlus includes CRM, online bookings, email marketing, review management, and accounting in one subscription. Stop paying for MYOB plus separate CRM, booking, and marketing tools.
MYOB's Lite plan starts at $30/month, Pro is $63/month, and AccountRight Plus is $150/month — all for accounting and payroll only. Add CRM ($20+/mo), booking software ($15+/mo), and email marketing ($15+/mo) and you're spending $85+/month. OneBookPlus includes everything for $0-69/month — that's a saving of over $600 per year.
FAQ
For small to medium businesses that want more than just accounting, yes. MYOB is a well-known Australian accounting platform with a strong payroll engine and the new AI BAS feature. But it focuses on accounting — you'll need separate tools for CRM, bookings, and marketing. OneBookPlus is a modern, mobile-first platform that includes invoicing, CRM, online bookings, job management, email marketing, POS, and accounting in one app. MYOB's strength is deep accounting and payroll (especially for complex awards); OneBookPlus's strength is breadth — one platform replacing 3-5 subscriptions.
Yes. OneBookPlus handles the core accounting features small to medium businesses use MYOB for — GST-compliant invoicing, expense tracking, profit and loss reports, BAS summaries, and ABN validation. Plus you get CRM, online bookings, job management, email marketing, and review management included at no extra cost. MYOB's edge is in complex payroll (award interpretation) and their new AI BAS feature. For sole traders, freelancers, and small teams who don't need enterprise payroll, OneBookPlus is the modern alternative.
MYOB Business now offers five plans: Solo ($12/month) for sole traders, Lite ($30/month) for basic accounting, Pro ($63/month) with payroll and inventory, AccountRight Plus ($150/month), and Premier ($195/month) for complex businesses. MYOB merged their old Essentials and AccountRight products into the unified MYOB Business range. None include CRM, bookings, or marketing. OneBookPlus starts free and includes invoicing, CRM, bookings, email marketing, job management, and accounting for $0-69/month. Most small to medium businesses save $50-100+/month by switching from MYOB plus add-ons to OneBookPlus.
Yes — MYOB is rolling out AI BAS in 2026, which automates BAS preparation from data collection to lodgement readiness. They also have AI-powered category suggestions for bank transaction matching. These are strong accounting-specific AI features. OneBookPlus focuses on giving you a complete business platform at an affordable price. If AI-powered BAS is your top priority, MYOB's AI BAS is impressive. But if you want one book that handles your entire business without paying for 4+ separate tools, OneBookPlus is the better choice.
OneBookPlus is the best MYOB alternative for Australian small to medium businesses who want a modern, all-in-one platform. Unlike MYOB which focuses on accounting and payroll, OneBookPlus includes GST invoicing, CRM, online bookings, job management, email marketing, POS, review management, and full accounting — all in one book. It's mobile-first, built with modern technology, and starts free. Australian businesses switching from MYOB to OneBookPlus typically save money and time by consolidating their business tools into a single platform.
MYOB has been a fixture in Australian businesses since the 1990s — and for good reason. Its payroll handles complex award interpretation, its AccountRight product supports advanced inventory, and its brand is trusted by accountants nationwide. But MYOB has struggled to modernise. The interface feels dated, the pricing has climbed (Solo at $12/mo to Premier at $195/mo), and key features like CRM, bookings, and marketing simply don't exist.
OneBookPlus gives you everything MYOB does for core accounting — GST-compliant invoicing, expense tracking, BAS summaries, P&L reports — plus everything MYOB doesn't: a full CRM with client timeline, online booking pages, job management with pipeline, email marketing, review management, rostering, and bank feeds via Open Banking. All starting from $0/month.
Export your MYOB contacts as CSV and import them into OneBookPlus during setup. Your MYOB history stays for your accountant's records. New work starts in OneBookPlus immediately — connect your bank in two minutes, create your first invoice, and see how much simpler business management can be.
