Edara ERP
Tier S · Published pricesCloud ERP for Egyptian and Saudi trading and distribution SMEs, from Cairo-based Edrak Software
Edara is a cloud ERP from Edrak Software (EDRAK), which says it launched Edara in 2006 and lists an office in Nasr City, Cairo. It covers accounts, inventory, sales, purchases, manufacturing and point of sale, and the vendor aims it at small and medium trading and distribution companies in Egypt and Saudi Arabia.
Pros
- + Published USD prices with monthly or annual billing
- + Accounts, inventory, sales, purchases and POS in one system
- + Vendor says it guides customers through Egyptian Tax Authority integration
- + Top plan connects to Shopify, WooCommerce, Salla and Jumia
Cons
- − Egyptian e-invoicing is listed only in the top (Ultimate) plan
- − Priced in USD, so the EGP cost moves with the exchange rate
- − Every plan adds a monthly base fee on top of the per-user fee
- − Vendor aims it at trading and distribution firms rather than contractors
Egypt note
Edara says it shortens the steps to integrate with the Egyptian Tax Authority and follows up with the customer until the e-invoicing system is running; its pricing page lists Egyptian e-invoicing in the Ultimate plan. The vendor lists an office in Nasr City, Cairo, and Egyptian phone numbers.
Odoo
Tier S · Published pricesModular open-source ERP with an Egyptian e-invoicing localization
Odoo is a modular ERP whose apps cover accounting, inventory, project, sales and HR, sold as Odoo Online, Odoo.sh or on-premise. Its Egyptian localization includes an ETA e-invoicing module, available since Odoo 15.0, and Odoo's partner directory lists 204 implementation partners in Egypt.
Pros
- + Egyptian e-invoicing module with ETA API, GS1/EGS codes and token signing
- + Accounting, inventory, project and HR apps in one system
- + Published prices, plus a free plan for a single app
- + 204 listed implementation partners in Egypt
Cons
- − ETA signing needs a USB token and Odoo's Windows IoT middleware
- − Construction workflows depend on apps and partner configuration
- − Total cost adds partner implementation to licences
- − List prices are in USD
Egypt note
Odoo's Egypt localization connects to the Egyptian Tax Authority's e-invoicing API: the company registers its ERP on the ETA portal, maps products to GS1 or EGS codes, and signs invoices with a USB token from the ETA or Egypt Trust through Odoo's Windows IoT middleware. Odoo says Egyptian e-invoicing is available from Odoo 15.0, and its directory lists 204 partners in Egypt.
