Although the company seemingly sells a $399 desktop version for the Mac, Intuit’s focus is on various cloud versions of QuickBooks Online, with plans starting at $12.50 per month. QuickBooks : The 800-pound gorilla of the small business accounting world is still Intuit’s QuickBooks.However, for $15 per month, we weren’t interested in using an emulated Windows app. The company’s engineers figured out a way to embed the Windows version of AccountEdge in a custom emulation wrapper, and they made that the official migration path for orphaned Mac users.

Two choices immediately presented themselves: Such transitions are most easily done at the start of a year, so in late 2020, we started evaluating the alternatives. Tonya didn’t mind keeping one of her Macs on 10.14 Mojave so she could keep running AccountEdge temporarily, but we clearly had to switch accounting systems.

MYOB tried and failed to update AccountEdge to be a 64-bit app, and eventually stopped selling it. Unfortunately, AccountEdge was built on a 30-year-old, 32-bit code base that wasn’t compatible with macOS 10.15 Catalina. The main alternative was Intuit’s QuickBooks, but we had seen Intuit jerk Mac users around too many times with canceled Mac apps to trust it. While Tonya could get it to do everything we needed, particularly after taking an online accounting class in 2018, it was neither easy nor enjoyable to use. It was capable but clunky, never really evolving beyond its 1990’s heritage. Over the years, MYOB went through numerous corporate transitions, and the app itself became known as AccountEdge.
