Autodesk Construction Cloud vs Horizon FMS (FIT)
Two United Arab Emirates field service software options, compared side by side for United Arab Emirates trades.
Which should you choose?
Autodesk Construction Cloud edges ahead on our United Arab Emirates tiering (Tier S vs A), but both are workable — the right pick depends on your trade, region, and the United Arab Emirates-specific notes below.
Autodesk Construction Cloud
Tier S · RecommendedBIM, design collaboration & construction management
Central to Dubai’s BIM mandate (BIM model submission required for many new permits since Jan 2024) and used across major UAE developments. The BIM + construction-management standard.
Pros
- + Market-leading BIM and design collaboration
- + Strong field + design + document integration
- + Required where clients mandate BIM
Cons
- − Enterprise / subscription pricing — quote-only
- − BIM depth wasted on simple jobs
- − English-first UI
United Arab Emirates note
If you build in Dubai above the BIM thresholds (or any government project), BIM submission to ISO 19650 / IFC is required — Autodesk is the default environment.
Horizon FMS (FIT)
Tier A · WorkableUAE CAFM / facilities management — assets, PPM, work orders
A UAE-built CAFM/facilities-management platform for FM and maintenance contractors — assets, PPM, work orders and contracts, with UAE VAT.
Pros
- + UAE vendor (fit.ae) with local support
- + CAFM: assets, planned maintenance, contracts
- + UAE VAT / project accounting marketed
Cons
- − Quote-only pricing
- − FM-focused, not construction PM
- − Smaller brand than the globals
United Arab Emirates note
A locally-built option for UAE facilities-management and MEP-maintenance firms that want CAFM with local support.
