PlanRadar

Tier S ยท Published prices

Site inspections, snagging, defects and site documentation

PlanRadar, founded in Vienna in 2013, is a site documentation, inspection and defect-management app with a Dubai office in Boulevard Plaza Tower 1, Downtown. PlanRadar says it has more than 200,000 users in 75+ countries, and its Arabic-language UAE page names customers including Shapoorji Pallonji, Amana Steel Buildings and National Central Cooling Company. It publishes per-user prices, and subcontractors join free on every plan.

Pros

  • + Published per-user prices and a 30-day free trial with no credit card
  • + Unlimited subcontractors free on every plan
  • + Arabic-language UAE website and pricing page
  • + Dubai office in Downtown

Cons

  • โˆ’ Site execution only, not scheduling or accounting
  • โˆ’ Starter and Pro are capped at 10 users; more needs Enterprise
  • โˆ’ 4% innovation fee on the annual fee from the second billing period
  • โˆ’ Prices shown in USD, EUR, GBP or AUD, not AED

United Arab Emirates note

PlanRadar runs an Arabic-language UAE site and a Dubai office. It suits contractors who want digital snagging, inspections and handover records without an enterprise rollout; VAT invoicing stays in your accounting system.

Typical United Arab Emirates pricing: Published (USD, per user per month, excluding VAT): Basic $32 (1 user, 10 plans), Starter $107 (up to 10 users, 30 plans per user), Pro $159 (up to 10 users, 100 plans per user, 1 BIM model per user); Enterprise by quote. Monthly or annual billing, with annual saving more than 10%; PlanRadar bills annually in advance unless the contract says otherwise and adds a 4% innovation fee from the second billing period. 30-day free trial.

Procore

Tier A ยท Listed

Construction project management, quality, safety and financials

Procore Technologies (NYSE: PCOR) opened its first MENA office in Dubai Internet City in September 2022 and runs a UAE site with a Dubai phone line. Its UAE site lists project management, quality and safety, financial management and Procore AI on one platform. Every contract includes unlimited users and data storage, per Procore.

Pros

  • + Unlimited users and data storage in every contract (per Procore)
  • + Project management, quality and safety, and financial tools on one platform
  • + 500+ integrations, including Xero and Sage 50 Accounts Cloud (per Procore)
  • + Dubai office and a UAE phone line

Cons

  • โˆ’ No public prices: annual fee per product based on turnover
  • โˆ’ UAE site is English only, with no Arabic option
  • โˆ’ Not an accounting system: UAE VAT returns stay elsewhere
  • โˆ’ A full rollout across projects and subcontractors takes planning

United Arab Emirates note

Procore's financial tools cover budgets, forecasts, change orders and payment applications, not UAE VAT accounting, so keep a VAT-ready accounting system alongside it. Procore lists connectors for accounting tools such as Xero and Sage 50 Accounts Cloud.

Typical United Arab Emirates pricing: Quote-based; no public prices. Procore's UAE pricing page says it charges an upfront annual fee per product based on your annual turnover, with unlimited users and data storage included.
