Namasoft (NamaERP) and QuickBooks are both Tier A. Compare the typical pricing shown for each below. The tier is not a quality ranking: weigh the pros, cons, pricing and Egypt-specific notes below against your trade and region.
Namasoft (NamaERP)
Tier A · ListedGiza-based ERP with contracting, property and Egyptian e-invoicing modules
Nama ERP is made by Namasoft, founded in 2011 and headquartered in Mohandessin, Giza, with offices in Riyadh, Kuwait and Libya; the vendor says 700+ clients in 10 countries use it. Its 54 modules include financials, supply chain, HR and payroll, projects, and a property and contracting suite covering tenders, BOQs, payment certificates, retention and subcontractors. Named Egyptian contracting and real-estate clients include Nafal for Contracting, National Investment Company and Nablco.
Pros
- + Contracting suite with tenders, BOQs, payment certificates and retention
- + Covers both ETA e-invoice and e-receipt systems, the vendor says
- + Head office in Giza with a Cairo phone line
- + Wide module range from finance to HR and payroll
Cons
- − No published prices; demo and quote only
- − A broad configurable ERP, so setup takes implementation work
- − Construction depth should be tested in a demo
Egypt note
Namasoft says Nama ERP covers both parts of Egypt's tax digitisation: B2B e-invoices with HSM signing and GS1 and EGS item codes, and electronic receipts for point of sale, submitted to and tracked with the Egyptian Tax Authority. It is headquartered in Giza and names Egyptian contractors among its clients.
QuickBooks
Tier A · ListedIntuit's cloud accounting, sold in Egypt as the QuickBooks Global edition with no ETA link
QuickBooks Online is Intuit's cloud accounting software; outside its localised countries it is sold as a Global edition, and Egypt appears in the country list on Intuit's global site. Intuit's global pages list four plans (Simple Start, Essentials, Plus and Advanced, for 1 to 25 users) but say nothing about Egypt's ETA e-invoicing or e-receipts. It fits a business already on QuickBooks that will add a separate ETA connector.
Pros
- + Familiar cloud accounting with a 30-day free trial
- + Multi-currency from the Essentials plan
- + Arabic-language version of Intuit's global site
- + ETA connectors such as OrchidaTax list QuickBooks integration
Cons
- − No ETA e-invoicing described; a third-party connector is needed
- − Global prices load by location; no fixed figures on the page
- − Intuit says AI outputs are in English only
- − Intuit has closed QuickBooks in a market before (India, announced 2022)
Egypt note
Egypt is in the country list of Intuit's QuickBooks Global site, but Intuit's global pages do not mention Egypt's ETA e-invoicing or e-receipt system. A business that must issue ETA documents needs a third-party connector; OrchidaTax, for example, lists QuickBooks Online and Desktop among its integrations.
