Tier S ยท Published prices

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.

QuickBooks

Tier A ยท Listed

Intuit'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

  • โˆ’ No ETA e-invoicing described; a third-party connector is needed
  • โˆ’ Global prices load by location; no fixed figures on the page
  • โˆ’ Intuit says AI outputs are in English only
  • โˆ’ 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.

Typical Egypt pricing: Four monthly plans (Simple Start, Essentials, Plus, Advanced) with a 30-day free trial; Intuit's global pricing page shows prices by visitor location, so check the Egypt price at quickbooks.intuit.com/global/pricing.
