Autodesk Forma (formerly Autodesk Construction Cloud)

Tier A · Listed

Autodesk's construction cloud, now sold as Autodesk Forma

Autodesk Construction Cloud became part of Autodesk Forma on 24 March 2026, and its products were renamed (for example Forma Build and Forma Data Management). Autodesk sells it in three bundles: Model Management (model coordination and design collaboration), Preconstruction (takeoff, estimating and bidding) and Construction Operations (field and document management).

Pros

+ Model coordination, preconstruction and field tools from one vendor
+ Model Management bundle includes Navisworks Manage and Model Coordination (per Autodesk)
+ User-, project- or account-based pricing options (per Autodesk)
+ 30-day money-back guarantee (per Autodesk)

Cons

− No public prices for the bundles: quote only
− Product names changed in March 2026, so older guides use ACC names
− BIM coordination is more than simple fit-out or MEP jobs need
− Not an accounting or ZATCA e-invoicing tool

Saudi Arabia note

Most useful for firms that already work in Autodesk design tools or join projects where the client runs its model and documents in Autodesk. It does not issue tax invoices, so ZATCA e-invoicing stays in your accounting or ERP system.

Typical Saudi Arabia pricing: Quote-based: Autodesk's construction pricing page lists three bundles (Model Management, Preconstruction, Construction Operations) with 'Get a quote' and no prices; Autodesk says it offers user-, project- and account-based pricing and a 30-day money-back guarantee.

Focus Softnet (Focus CAFM)

Tier A · Listed

Facility-management (CAFM) software from ERP vendor Focus Softnet

Focus CAFM is the facility-management product of Focus Softnet, an ERP vendor established in 1992 that says it runs 27 offices in 17 countries. It handles work orders, maintenance including predictive maintenance, asset tracking and mobile access, and connects to HR, CRM and other systems. Focus's Saudi site lists offices in Riyadh, Jeddah and Al Khobar and a separate ZATCA e-invoicing module.

Pros

+ Work orders, asset tracking and maintenance in one CAFM tool
+ Mobile facility management for technicians on site
+ Saudi offices in Riyadh, Jeddah and Al Khobar
+ Focus sells a ZATCA e-invoicing module for its ERP and others

Cons

− No public prices; demo and quote only
− The CAFM page does not mention Arabic support
− The CAFM page does not describe invoicing or ZATCA features
− Aimed at building owners and facility managers more than small trade firms

Saudi Arabia note

Focus Softnet's Saudi site lists a head office in Riyadh and branches in Riyadh, Jeddah and Al Khobar. Its separate e-invoicing module issues ZATCA tax and simplified invoices in Arabic and English with QR codes and cryptographic stamps, and works with Focus X or other ERPs; the CAFM page itself does not describe invoicing.

Typical Saudi Arabia pricing: Quote-based; no public prices (demo on request).
