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.

Sage (200 / 300)

Tier A ยท Listed

Sage 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

  • โˆ’ Sold through partners: quote only, no public UAE prices
  • โˆ’ Construction features depend on the partner's set-up
  • โˆ’ UAE VAT on Sage Intacct needs a partner-built module
  • โˆ’ 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.

Typical United Arab Emirates pricing: Quote-based through Sage business partners; no public UAE prices found.
