UBS is the most basic accounting system. Avoid it if you can because in my view the scalability is not there and with GST it has many bugs. MYOB is not that much better as well. But both these software are good enough for very small and simple businesses.

Spend a bit more to get a better accounting software like Autocount or QnE. Autocount seems to be very good on the GST part and is very flexible and has Excel like interface. QnE seems good too but not as flexible as Autocount.

IMHO none of the common & cheap (below RM10k) software are flexible enough to automate your processes. They are all entry level software for small companies.

SAP is a very powerful software that can handle most aspects of your business. However, SAP doesn't make sense for even medium size companies due to the cost to implement and the expertise required to manage it. You need more people to work in SAP compared to other softwares because it can cater to very specialised job functions. Great for large companies but not so good for small ones.

Unfortunately I have not found any software that can bridge the very wide divide between SAP and the cheaper software mentioned in this thread. I am looking for something which is highly flexible & customisable but still relatively cheaper and simpler to use and implement.
