AUSTRALIA: EmployeeConnect, the leading provider of SaaS-based HR solutions, today announced that it now provides supported one-click integration with MYOB AccountRight Live as part of its extended partner ecosystem strategy.
Delivered in the cloud, EmployeeConnect already provides a number of integrations with third-party payroll systems as well as other add-on business applications such as Xero, Quickbooks and Seek.
Delivering a HRIS that reduces cost and complexity
With many more integrations to come, EmployeeConnect intends to build the simplest path to seamlessly integrate people and payroll, as well as other popular business applications. Traditionally an expensive and time-consuming process, this new partnership will help eliminate the hurdles of payroll integration for MYOB users.
This new integration with MYOB accounting software strengthens EmployeeConnect’s proposition of HR software that is flexible, built to scale and adapt to change as organisations grow and develop.
“Like us, MYOB is an iconic and innovative Australian company committed to the success of Australian business so we see this as an organic partnership” said Ari Kopoulos, CEO of EmployeeConnect.
“The opportunity goes beyond simply extending our existing solution with payroll. It’s a partnership with our exciting roadmap offering game changing features that support strategic, data driven decision making.”

MYOB users and customers gain an instant one-step process to integrate people and payroll seamlessly.
“We are committed to any strategy that improves & transforms the way people are managed, engaged, and empowered with a single source of truth. This partnership intends to help MYOB complete their journey to cloud with holistic HR features usually reserved for big business.”
In the last twelve months, MYOB’s business strategy has focused on delivering a more integrated offering for its customers, based on the changing needs of the industry. This year alone, the leading accounting software provider has announced numerous big-name partnerships including American Express, OnDeck and most recently, NAB.
Andrew Birch, General Manager of Industry Solutions at MYOB suggests that a bold partner strategy is meeting the next generation of small business desires. He stated: “Our partner strategy has answered the resounding call from small business, accountants and bookkeepers alike that the financial industry needs to be integrated, simple and effective for its users.
“In the modern day of business, we no longer bank with one bank or use one piece of software for all our business needs. Customers want simple integration, and that is our key driver for new partnerships.”
Earlier this year, MYOB announced an agreement with American Express that extended the number of bank feeds available for small businesses and partners using MYOB. As part of this agreement, MYOB is still the first and only accounting Software Company in Australia to receive bank feeds direct from American Express.
“MYOB has the best bank feeds in the industry, which is why we are the only bank feed provider that offers a quality guarantee. If our clients are not satisfied with the quality, they can claim repayment of 30 days of their subscription,” added Birch.
