If you’re considering switching from FreshBooks to MYOB, you’re not alone. As businesses grow, they often outgrow lightweight tools like FreshBooks and turn to more robust accounting solutions. That’s where MYOB steps in — and where MMC Convert makes your migration experience seamless.
At MMC Convert, we specialise in data migration from FreshBooks to MYOB, ensuring accuracy, speed, and zero downtime. In this guide, we’ll walk you through why MYOB is a great next step, what data gets transferred, how our process works, and why MMC Convert is your go-to partner.
Why Migrate from FreshBooks to MYOB?
FreshBooks is known for its simplicity. It’s perfect for freelancers and small businesses looking for easy invoicing and time tracking. However, as businesses expand, they often need deeper reporting, stronger compliance features, and multi-user access. That’s where FreshBooks starts to fall short.
On the other hand, MYOB (Mind Your Own Business) is designed for businesses ready to scale. It offers comprehensive tools for GST/BAS compliance, payroll, inventory, and more — especially suited for businesses in Australia, New Zealand, and India that require localised features.
By migrating to MYOB, you’ll gain better financial control, more accurate insights, and automation tools tailored to growing businesses.
What Data Gets Migrated?
When MMC Convert handles your migration, we don’t just transfer the basics — we migrate your complete accounting ecosystem. Here’s what’s included:
- Chart of Accounts
- Customer & Supplier Contacts
- Inventory Items & Product Data
- Sales & Purchase Invoices
- Manual Journals & Bank Transactions
- Trial Balance & Opening Balances
- Payroll Data (including employee records, payslips, leave balances)
- Time Tracking Entries (if applicable)
- Historical Years of Conversion – We mirror all previous years of financial data so that nothing is lost
- Multi-Currency Transactions – Brought over in the original currency and exchange rate
We also offer customised conversions to suit your business needs. Whether you require a unique chart mapping or specific tax configuration, just ask and we’ll deliver.
