Autodesk Forma (formerly Autodesk Construction Cloud) vs Matiyas Solutions
Two Kuwait software options, compared side by side for Kuwait trades.
Which should you choose?
Autodesk Forma (formerly Autodesk Construction Cloud) and Matiyas Solutions 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 Kuwait-specific notes below against your trade and region.
Autodesk Forma (formerly Autodesk Construction Cloud)
Tier A · ListedAutodesk's construction platform, now sold as Autodesk Forma
Autodesk moved Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC) into its Autodesk Forma brand on 24 March 2026 and renamed the products, for example Forma Build, Forma Data Management, Forma Takeoff and Forma Estimate. Autodesk sells them in three quote-based bundles, Model Management, Preconstruction and Construction Operations, which also include Navisworks Manage, BuildingConnected Pro, ProEst and Pype tools.
Pros
- + Model coordination, design collaboration and document management in one account
- + Bundles run from takeoff, estimating and bidding to field operations and closeout
- + User-, project- and account-based pricing options (per Autodesk)
- + 30-day money-back guarantee stated on the pricing page
Cons
- − No public prices for the construction bundles: quote-based
- − Product names changed in March 2026, so older guides use ACC names
- − Not an accounting or invoicing tool
- − BIM depth is more than simple jobs need
Kuwait note
No Kuwait reseller or local office was confirmed in this check, so ask any Kuwait seller whether it is an authorised Autodesk partner and who provides local support and training. The tools suit engineering firms and contractors working with BIM models; simple jobs do not need them.
Matiyas Solutions
Tier A · ListedERPNext implementer with Kuwait payroll and construction set-ups
Matiyas Solutions implements ERPNext, the open-source ERP; Frappe lists it as a Bronze Partner in India, and Matiyas lists offices in India, Nigeria and a Kuwait office in Munira Tower, Fahaheel. Its Kuwait page says its set-up handles Kuwait Labour Law payroll, PIFSS contributions for Kuwaiti nationals, WPS files, KWD and an Arabic right-to-left interface. Its construction ERP covers BOQ import, project budgets, subcontract billing with retention, and labour payroll.
Pros
- + Kuwait payroll set-up: Labour Law, PIFSS and WPS (per Matiyas)
- + Construction features: BOQ import, budgets, subcontract billing and retention
- + Arabic right-to-left interface and KWD handling (per Matiyas)
- + Built on ERPNext, which is open source
Cons

- − ERPNext needs configuration before use
