Globe3 ERP
Tier A ยท WorkableCloud ERP with a dedicated construction/project-accounting module
An ERP suite (Singapore-HQ, with a Malaysia office and a localized MY site) with 20+ years' track record, serving construction, trading, manufacturing and field service โ a solid mid-market construction ERP option locally.
Pros

Cons
- โ Singapore-HQ (regional, not Malaysia-native)

Sage UBS (Sage Malaysia)
Tier A ยท WorkableLong-running localized accounting (UBS) plus mid-market Sage 300/X3
โ Sage's direction for the "UBS" line has shifted under the Access Group acquisition โ confirm the current product/branding and support continuity before relying on the legacy UBS product.
Sage UBS has been a Malaysian SME staple since 1988 (now also branded Access UBS), while Sage 300/X3 serve larger multi-entity firms needing job costing.
Pros
- + Deep legacy install base + partner network
- + Job-costing for contractors (Sage 300/X3)
- + Scales from SME (UBS) to mid-market
- + SST + e-invoice paths
Cons
- โ Branding/ownership confusion (Sage UBS vs Access UBS)
- โ E-invoicing may need a third-party Access Point (e.g. SESAMi)
- โ Legacy UI
- โ Enterprise tiers pricey
Malaysia note
MyInvois/LHDN compliance is available, with Sage 300 routing e-invoices to LHDN via SESAMi as an Access Point โ and the job-costing modules suit construction and multi-department contractors.
