Cubicost by Glodon

Tier A ยท Listed

BIM quantity takeoff and cost estimating (Cubicost TAS, TRB, TME, TBQ)

The suite includes TAS for quantity takeoff, TRB for rebar takeoff, and TME and TBQ.

Pros

  • + BIM quantity takeoff with built-in local measurement rules
  • + 3D rebar takeoff (TRB) with auto-deduction
  • + Works with Revit BIM models
  • + Malaysia office in Petaling Jaya and Malaysian case studies

Cons

  • โˆ’ No public prices: demo request only
  • โˆ’ Estimating and takeoff only: no accounting or e-invoicing
  • โˆ’ Separate products per trade (TAS, TRB, TME, TBQ)
  • โˆ’ Aimed at quantity surveyors and estimators, not small trade firms

Malaysia note

Glodon's Asia site lists a Malaysia office in Petaling Jaya (+603 7931 6081) and Malaysian case studies from QS and M&E firms. Cubicost is a takeoff and estimating tool, not an LHDN MyInvois tool, so it pairs with accounting software for e-invoicing.

Typical Malaysia pricing: Quote-based; no public prices on Glodon's Asia site. Glodon offers demos on request.
