The Ecosystem Problem
MYOB Practice Is Designed to Keep You Inside MYOB's World.
MYOB Practice works well if every client, every process, every piece of data lives inside MYOB. But most Australian accounting firms use a mixed stack — Xero for some clients, MYOB for others, third-party tools everywhere else.
Reconcile income and expenses, chase outstanding invoices, confirm GST registration, back up records, and prepare documents for your accountant. The earlier you start, the simpler the process — and the lower your accounting bill.

Modern vs Legacy
MYOB Has Been Around Since 1991. Sole Was Built for 2026.
MYOB's heritage is its strength — and also its constraint. Practice features built on a 30-year-old accounting product can't deliver what cloud-native, AI-first platforms do in 2026.
White-Label
MYOB Practice Has No White-Label Capability. Sole Does.
Every client interaction on MYOB Practice carries MYOB's branding. Sole's white-label client app means every interaction carries yours — your logo, your colours, your domain.
Your brand at every touchpoint — clients see your firm's logo and colours, not Sole's
Your domain clients log in at your URL, not soleapp.com.au
Proposals and documents delivered under your firm's identity
Client retention tool firms with white-label portals report stronger client loyalty and perceived professionalism
Available from $24.99/month per client licence a low-cost way to differentiate your practice
Frequently asked questions
Common questions
What happened to MYOB Practice pricing in 2026?
MYOB confirmed subscription price increases across all Australian plans effective 1 March 2026. For accounting firms managing dozens of client MYOB subscriptions, this creates a compounding cost problem that hits firm margins and client relationships simultaneously.
Can Sole Practice Manager replace MYOB for an accounting firm?
No. Both guides contain general information only. Tax treatment depends on your structure, circumstances and industry. Speak with a registered tax agent or accountant before making decisions or lodging.
Does Sole Practice Manager work if some clients use Xero and some use MYOB?
Yes. Sole Practice Manager is ecosystem-agnostic. Unlike MYOB Practice, which is designed to run alongside MYOB’s products, Sole integrates with Xero, MYOB, and other platforms. Mixed-client-base firms are exactly the use case Sole is built for.
Is Sole Practice Manager an Australian-made product?
Yes. Sole Practice Manager is built in Australia for Australian accounting and bookkeeping firms. BAS, STP Phase 2, SuperStream, PAYG, and ATO compliance workflows are built into the platform — not added via third-party integrations.
