ePROMIS vs TallyPrime

Construction and project ERP with an Oman-facing site

ePROMIS Solutions sells ERP software, including ePROMIS Construction Cloud with project management, design coordination, accounting, procurement, asset management and HR modules. It runs an Oman page aimed at contractors, but lists no Oman office address and no named Oman customer on the pages read. ePROMIS says it was established in 1981 and has over 3,000 customers worldwide.

Pros

• + Construction Cloud built around project costs, budgets and timelines
• + Accounting, procurement, assets and HR in the same suite
• + Oman-facing site aimed at contractors
• + Vendor with a long history (established 1981, per ePROMIS)

Cons

• − No public prices: demo and quote only
• − No Oman office address or named Oman customer found
• − No Oman VAT or Fawtara claims on its pages
• − Broad ERP: expect an implementation project

Accounting and inventory software, sold in Oman through a Muscat dealer

TallyPrime from Tally Solutions is accounting, inventory and invoicing software, sold as Silver for a single user and Gold for multiple users on monthly, yearly or lifetime licences; Tally says 2.7M+ businesses use it. Its Middle East site covers UAE and Saudi VAT only, but Times of Oman reported a VAT-ready release for Oman in March 2021.

Pros

• + Lifetime licence option as well as monthly and yearly plans
• + Accounting, inventory and invoicing in one package

• + Tally's partner locator covers Oman

Cons

• − No Oman page or OMR prices on Tally's own site
