Oracle Primavera P6
Tier A · WorkableCritical-path scheduling & cost control for large projects

Cons
- − Needs a trained planner
- − Enterprise / quote-only pricing

United Arab Emirates note
Government and large private clients frequently mandate Primavera-format programmes — often a contractual requirement, not a choice.
Zoho (Projects / Books / FSM)
Tier A · WorkableAffordable PM + accounting + field service for SMB trades
The pragmatic SMB stack — Projects for management, Books (FTA-listed) for UAE VAT accounting, and FSM for field service — popular with smaller UAE trades and contracting firms.
Pros

- + Zoho Books is FTA-accredited for UAE VAT
- + Arabic support; huge app ecosystem
Cons
