OrchidaTax

Tier A ยท Listed

E-invoicing integration layer linking ERP, accounting and POS systems to Egypt's ETA

OrchidaTax sells an e-invoicing integration layer that connects existing ERP, accounting and POS systems to tax-authority portals, including Egypt's ETA, Saudi Arabia's ZATCA and the UAE FTA. It lists connectors for SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, Odoo, Xero, QuickBooks and Sage 50, and offices in Cairo, Dubai and Riyadh. It is a compliance bridge, not an accounting system; OrchidaTax says its parent, OrchidaSoft, was founded in 1997.

Pros

  • + Connects existing ERPs (SAP, Oracle, Dynamics, Odoo) to the ETA
  • + Covers ETA e-invoices and e-receipts
  • + Cairo office listed
  • + Also covers ZATCA and UAE FTA for regional groups

Cons

  • โˆ’ Integration layer only; needs an ERP, accounting or POS system
  • โˆ’ No public prices
  • โˆ’ Little company background on its site
  • โˆ’ Sales-led: pricing only through a quote

Egypt note

OrchidaTax says it supports ETA Model 41 e-invoicing and e-receipts with digital signature, instant submission and submission monitoring, and lists a Cairo office in New Nozha. It suits a business that already runs SAP, Oracle, Dynamics or Odoo and needs ETA submission without replacing that system.

Typical Egypt pricing: Quote-based; no public prices on orchidatax.com.

Site task tracking, plans and documentation for construction and property teams

PlanRadar is a Vienna-based construction and property platform, founded in 2013, for site tickets and tasks on digital plans, checklists and reports, BIM models, document management and scheduling. PlanRadar says it has 200,000+ users in 75+ countries. Its Middle East office is in Dubai, and its careers page lists Cairo as a hiring location.

Pros

  • + Published per-user prices and a 30-day free trial with no card
  • + Unlimited subcontractors and watchers on every plan
  • + Arabic-language UAE website and a Dubai regional office
  • + Pro plan adds BIM models, scheduling, approvals and API access

Cons

  • โˆ’ A field and documentation tool, not accounting or cost control
  • โˆ’ Per-user pricing in USD adds up for large site teams
  • โˆ’ Plan and BIM-model limits per user below Enterprise
  • โˆ’ No Egyptian office listed on the contact page

Egypt note

PlanRadar lists no Egyptian office on its contact page; its regional office is in Dubai, and its careers page lists Cairo as a hiring location. It has no Egyptian tax or e-invoicing role and prices are in USD, so EGP costs move with the exchange rate.

Typical Egypt pricing: Basic $32, Starter $107, Pro $159 per user per month (USD, as shown on planradar.com; Basic is limited to 1 user); Enterprise custom. Annual billing saves more than 10%, and PlanRadar bills annually in advance unless agreed otherwise. 30-day free trial.
