TallyPrime

Tier A ยท Listed

Accounting and inventory software with a Middle East edition

TallyPrime from Tally Solutions is accounting, inventory and invoicing software, sold as Silver for a single user and Gold for multiple users on monthly, yearly or lifetime licences. Its Middle East site covers UAE and Saudi VAT and e-invoicing, but has no Bahrain VAT page. Tally says 2.7M+ businesses use its software.

Pros

  • + Lifetime licence option as well as monthly and yearly plans
  • + Accounting, inventory and invoicing in one package
  • + Arabic-language Middle East site
  • + Partner locator includes Bahrain

Cons

  • โˆ’ No Bahrain VAT page on Tally's site
  • โˆ’ Gulf prices not readable this run; ask a partner
  • โˆ’ Accounting and inventory, not construction management
  • โˆ’ Plans auto-renew until cancelled

Bahrain note

If your accountant already uses Tally, it can stay the books system, but Tally's own site does not describe Bahrain VAT support; ask a Tally partner to show a Bahrain VAT return before buying.

Typical Bahrain pricing: Tally publishes prices for TallyPrime Silver (single user) and Gold (multi-user) on 1-month, 3-month, 12-month and lifetime plans, with AED, USD and SAR options; the Gulf-currency amounts could not be read this run and no Bahrain (BHD) price is shown.
