Melbourne, Australia - 2 May 2016

MYOB the First Accounting Software Vendor to offer Products through a Distribution Cloud Portal.

Synnex Australia Pty Ltd has signed the distribution agreement with MYOB Technology Pty Ltd, the leader in business management solutions in Australia and New Zealand.  Synnex will now distribute MYOB’s traditional desktop software and Cloud-based solutions through the Synnex Cloud Automation Platform.

MYOB helps approximately 1.2 million Australian and New Zealand businesses via their 50+ products and services.  MYOB has an extensive network of over 40,000 MYOB Advisors comprised of Accountants, Bookkeepers, Certified Consultants and other Professional partners.

Kee Ong, CEO of Synnex Australia and New Zealand says “The Synnex MYOB strategic partnership adds an excellent opportunity for our Synnex Partners to expand their solutions portfolio in selling MYOB Software licenses and Cloud Subscriptions.  MYOB Software and Cloud products will be available through the Synnex Cloud Marketplace and enforces our Cloud Channel Strategy to help our Partners in establishing a strong recurring business model and ongoing revenue streams”.

The Synnex Cloud Marketplace for Channel Partners already has an impressive list of Cloud IaaS and SaaS solutions such as IBM Softlayer, Rackspace, Abbyy, Cirius, Nomadesk, Udocx, Egnyte and BitTitan Cloud enablement and migration services. With MYOB joining Synnex’s Cloud Vendor portfolio, Synnex is well positioned to offer the same Cloud Vendor Portfolio to its New Zealand operation.

MYOB National Sales Manager for Retail, Phil Somerfield said: “MYOB is excited to be partnering with Synnex to be the first Accounting Software vendor to offer our products through a distribution cloud portal, offering resellers another delivery mechanism of our software to their small business clients. With MYOB’s “home grown” cloud offerings for Australia and New Zealand there is a natural fit with Synnex’s “home grown” Cloud Marketplace. We are really excited about the partnership with Synnex, and the synergies that the two technology companies can offer resellers, and it further solidifies MYOB’s evolving commitment to the Retail Channel”.

Since 2010, MYOB has delivered a number of significant online innovations including MYOB Essentials and MYOB AccountRight.  With the recent launch of the Synnex Cloud Automation Platform, Channel Partners can now order and bundle MYOB software as well as Cloud-based solutions with their existing hardware portfolio through one fully integrated Synnex Cloud Reseller platform.

Michael Tea, General Manager Ecommerce & Cloud Services said: “The Synnex, MYOB partnership paves the way for MYOB’s 4,000 Developer Partners to develop solutions and also make it available on the Synnex Cloud Marketplace for other partners to order and provision.  As Synnex Australia developed its own Cloud Automation Platform we have full flexibility, to ensure we future proof the roadmap for our Cloud Vendors and Channel Partners as we expand our Synnex Cloud Platform into the APAC region”.

MYOB’s network of over 40,000 MYOB Advisors coupled with Synnex’s 8,000 Channel Partners are well positioned to leverage the home grown Cloud Solutions and innovation that is coming out of the local Australian operations.
