HashMicro
Tier A · ListedModular ERP with a construction module, sold in Malaysia by HashMicro Malaysia
HashMicro sells a modular ERP covering accounting, HR and payroll, inventory, CRM, procurement, manufacturing, POS, project management and construction.

- + Subcontractor work orders and claims
- + HashMicro says its e-invoicing is integrated with MyInvois
- + Broad module range in one ERP
Cons
- − No public prices
- − Its own ERP comparison article lists HashMicro first; treat such lists as marketing

Malaysia note
HashMicro says its e-invoice software is integrated with LHDN MyInvois for automatic validation and submission. Its construction module covers BoQ templates, milestone progress billing with retention and subcontractor claims. Its Malaysian blog ranks HashMicro first in its own ERP list, so compare it against independent sources.
