Two United Arab Emirates software options, compared side by side for United Arab Emirates trades.
Which should you choose?
Horizon FMS (FIT) and Sage (200 / 300) are both Tier A. Compare the typical pricing shown for each below. The tier is not a quality ranking: weigh the pros, cons, pricing and United Arab Emirates-specific notes below against your trade and region.
Horizon FMS (FIT)
Tier A · ListedDubai-built CAFM: assets, planned maintenance and work orders
Horizon FMS is a web-based computer-aided facility management (CAFM) system with mobile access from Frontline Information Technology LLC (FIT), a Dubai software company that says it has operated since 1992 and has an office in Al Karama. It covers assets, preventive maintenance, work orders and contracts for hard services such as HVAC, electrical and plumbing and soft services such as cleaning and security. FIT also sells the Horizon EBS ERP, Horizon HRMS and Horizon eProcure.
Pros
- + Dubai vendor with an office in Al Karama
- + Assets, preventive maintenance, work orders and contracts in one system
- + Covers hard and soft FM services, with mobile access
- + Same vendor sells Horizon EBS ERP, HRMS and eProcure
Cons
- − No public prices: quote only
- − FM-focused, not construction project management
- − VAT features are documented for Horizon EBS, not Horizon FMS
United Arab Emirates note
A locally built option for UAE facilities-management and MEP-maintenance firms that want CAFM from a Dubai vendor. FIT's VAT claims (FTA-format tax invoices in English and Arabic, VAT 201 returns) are made for its Horizon EBS ERP, and FIT is not on the Ministry of Finance list of accredited e-invoicing service providers (checked 30 September 2026).
Sage (200 / 300)
Tier A · ListedSage mid-market finance and ERP (Sage 300, X3, Intacct) sold through UAE partners
Sage sells its mid-market finance and ERP products in the UAE through business partners. It launched Sage Intacct, its cloud financial management platform, in the UAE on 23 October 2025, to be delivered through certified business partners. Sage partner SynergERP, which has a Dubai office, sells Sage X3, Sage Intacct and Sage 300 in the UAE.
Pros
- + Choice of Sage 300, Sage X3 or Sage Intacct through UAE partners
- + Multi-entity and multi-currency cloud finance in Sage Intacct
- + UAE VAT module for Sage Intacct (Intaxx) built by a Sage partner
Cons
- − Sold through partners: quote only, no public UAE prices
- − Construction features depend on the partner's set-up
- − UAE VAT on Sage Intacct needs a partner-built module
- − Not a site, scheduling or BIM tool
United Arab Emirates note
Sage is not on the UAE Ministry of Finance list of accredited e-invoicing service providers (checked 30 September 2026), so e-invoices would go through a separate accredited provider. For Sage Intacct, UAE VAT returns, FTA audit files and tax invoices come from the Intaxx module, which partner SynergERP says Sage contracted it to build. It suits firms where finance and cost control come first and a partner configures it for contracting.
