MYOB Strengthens their Relationship with Acumatica
Kilimanjaro Consulting
The largest and most experienced implementer of MYOB Acumatica and MYOB Exo across Australia and New Zealand.
Cloud business management solutions – different name, same powerful system
In 2014, MYOB invested in an emerging cloud software solution – Acumatica. This, in turn, gave rise to their new cloud business management solution, MYOB Advanced. MYOB Advanced has grown to become one of Australia and New Zealand’s favourite cloud ERP systems. But now, a new name has emerged in the ANZ ERP space – MYOB Acumatica. What is it, and how does it compare to the established MYOB Advanced?
What is MYOB Acumatica?
In July 2024, MYOB decided to rename and rebrand MYOB Advanced to MYOB Acumatica (formerly MYOB Advanced). So that means MYOB Acumatica is MYOB Advanced. They are the same software, built on the same infrastructure, and with the same powerful cloud functionality. Same product – new name.
MYOB Acumatica (formerly MYOB Advanced) is a cloud-based business management platform that captures financial and non-financial data across your organisation. It uses this information to automate manual processes, connect unaligned teams, and improve efficiency. MYOB Acumatica is built out of several modules centred around its core Finance functionality. When MYOB Acumatica is properly configured to fit your organisation’s needs, it helps you effectively manage the 6 key operational workflows:
Why did the name change from MYOB Advanced to MYOB Acumatica?
MYOB changed the MYOB Advanced name to MYOB Acumatica to convey the close alignment between the two products and the two companies. This promotes clarity for Australian and New Zealand organisations – they can be confident that they are using an established, world-renowned system that is also built to meet their needs. It also streamlines the process and understanding for companies using Acumatica when they expand into Australia and New Zealand.
What does the change mean for you?
As part of the strengthening partnership with Acumatica, MYOB Acumatica users will have access to the Acumatica Community, including the Acumatica Discussion Forums. These community resources and discussion boards are fantastic tools for troubleshooting minor roadblocks or learning more about your system. Expert MYOB Acumatica users may even be able to lend their own experience and help a company using Acumatica. MYOB Acumatica users can also use the #MYOB tag and MYOB board to leverage local expertise from both MYOB and Channel Partners.
Why use MYOB Acumatica instead of Acumatica?
If a cloud-based ERP system is the engine that drives your organisation, then using MYOB Acumatica ensures that the steering wheel is on the right side of the car. You get to leverage all the power, versatility, and usability of the fastest-growing cloud ERP in the world. However, with local configurations, you can enjoy a smoother ride in software that is adapted to suit local conditions and compliance requirements.
Acumatica is a large US-based organisation. All the idiosyncrasies of doing business in Australia and New Zealand will be familiar to you (and MYOB), but not to overseas vendors. The Acumatica system is not built to reflect the complexities that a local provider is more familiar with. MYOB Acumatica is a specifically customised iteration of Acumatica to meet the needs and compliance requirements of Australian and New Zealand organisations.
MYOB has the benefit of working closely not only with local government bodies like the ATO, IRD and more, but also with the developers of Acumatica. This means you will get the best of both worlds: a market-leading, cloud-native ERP platform built on the stable Acumatica framework with all the benefits of using locally developed software. MYOB Acumatica is the low-risk approach.
You will not have to worry about workarounds or manual processes for requirements such as:

2moAwesome article! I swear, if I had a dollar for every time I asked, 'What payroll do you use?' and got the answer, 'MYOB,' I’d be rolling in it. But then I have to follow up with, 'Which MYOB are you using?' 😅 I hope the rebranding helps.
