Biztory Cloud Accounting
Tier S ยท Published pricesMalaysian cloud accounting and invoicing with LHDN e-invoice submission
Biztory is a cloud accounting product from Biztory Cloud Sdn Bhd (formerly Vectory Innovation Sdn Bhd) of Puchong, Selangor, founded in 2014. It covers sales, purchases, inventory, accounting and e-invoicing, with project management on its Pro plan. Biztory's about page says it serves more than 6,500 businesses in Malaysia.
Pros
- + Published yearly prices from RM690
- + E-invoice submission included on every plan
- + Consolidated and self-billed e-invoice submission
- + Project management on the Pro plan
Cons
- โ Plans are billed yearly
- โ Plus plan has no full-set accounting or SST features
- โ SST treatment of the listed prices not stated
- โ Elite plan (unlimited users) is quote-only
Malaysia note
Biztory says it submits e-invoices to LHDN automatically, including self-billed invoices, and lets users consolidate receipts and submit them together instead of keying each into the MyInvois portal. Full-set accounting and SST features start on the Growth plan.
RIB CostX
Tier A ยท Listed2D and BIM takeoff with estimating spreadsheets live-linked to drawings
RIB CostX, first sold as Exactal CostX, is a takeoff, estimating and reporting product from RIB Software, which says it is part of Schneider Electric. It measures from 2D drawings, PDFs and 3D BIM models into live-linked estimating workbooks, and comes in Complete, Core and Quantify packages. RIB lists APAC offices in Australia, China, India and New Zealand but none in Malaysia.
Pros
- + Takeoff from 2D drawings, PDFs and 3D BIM models
- + Estimating spreadsheets live-linked to drawings
- + Automatic revision handling
- + Standalone, network or cloud (CostX Cloud) licensing
Cons
- โ No public prices: custom quote only
- โ No Malaysian office listed by RIB
- โ Estimating only: no accounting or e-invoicing
- โ Aimed at quantity surveyors and estimators, not small trade firms
Malaysia note
RIB lists no Malaysian office, so Malaysian buyers get prices through RIB's global quote form. CostX is a takeoff and estimating layer only; it does no LHDN MyInvois or SST work, so pair it with local accounting software.
