There are a few comments to make about the coverage and the comments posted by readers. The first is that our membership is now at 70 firms, with over 150 datafiles (ie businesses) between them. We now have 9 professional partners covering the whole of the country between them, and some support also for Irish users of the software.
The article mentions DRM quite often - this is short for 'Digital Rights Management'. This is the technical name for the technology which requires you to confirm your MYOB datafiles periodically.
The intervention by Tom Nash of the US firm Acclivity related to software that is recommended by Simple Accounting Ltd. It doesnot relate to the main work of this association. If you would like to find out more about Acclivity please use the links on the professional partners page to the site operated by Simple Accounting.
One further matter: please remember that we will be issuing fresh confirmation codes this weekend to allow members to trial the process. pleasemake sure that your profile entries are up to date. Those with payments still clearing at the bank will receive codes free this time.
