Software ยท Saudi Arabia ยท Head-to-head
Autodesk Forma (formerly Autodesk Construction Cloud) vs Onyx Pro ERP
Two Saudi Arabia software options, compared side by side for Saudi Arabia trades.
Which should you choose?
Autodesk Forma (formerly Autodesk Construction Cloud) and Onyx Pro ERP are both Tier A. Compare the typical pricing shown for each below. The tier is not a quality ranking: weigh the pros, cons, pricing and Saudi Arabia-specific notes below against your trade and region.
Autodesk Forma (formerly Autodesk Construction Cloud)
Tier A ยท ListedAutodesk'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
- โ No public prices for the bundles: quote only
- โ Product names changed in March 2026, so older guides use ACC names
- โ BIM coordination is more than simple fit-out or MEP jobs need
- โ 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.
Onyx Pro ERP
Tier A ยท ListedArabic and English ERP from Jeddah-based Ultimate Solutions
Onyx ERP is sold by Ultimate Solutions, which says it was founded in Jeddah in 2007 and lists offices in Riyadh, Dammam and other Saudi cities. The system covers accounting, inventory, procurement, sales and POS, fixed assets, HR and payroll, with project management and real estate modules. Ultimate Solutions says it issues ZATCA second-phase e-invoices linked to the Fatoora platform.
Pros
- + Phase 2 e-invoicing linked to Fatoora (per Ultimate Solutions)
- + Arabic and English interface
- + Offices in Jeddah, Riyadh, Dammam and other Saudi cities
- + Broad module list, including project management and payroll
Cons
- โ No public prices: request for quotation
- โ The Onyx ERP page does not describe contracting features
- โ No customer count or case studies on the product page
- โ Module pages give few functional details
Saudi Arabia note
Ultimate Solutions lists offices in ten Saudi cities and offers deployment, training, consulting and technical support services. Its product page lists a project management module but no contractor-specific features, so ask for a demo of project costing before you buy.
