Autodesk Forma (formerly Autodesk Construction Cloud)

Tier A ยท 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

  • โˆ’ No public prices for the bundles: quote only
  • โˆ’ Product names changed in March 2026, so older guides use ACC names
  • โˆ’ BIM coordination is more than simple fit-out or MEP jobs need
  • โˆ’ 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.

Tier S ยท Published prices

Cloud accounting with ZATCA e-invoicing and project and cost-centre tracking

Wafeq is cloud accounting software from Wafeq FZ-LLC, a UAE company, sold in Saudi Arabia through an Arabic and English Saudi site with SAR prices and Saudi phone lines. It covers invoicing, ZATCA e-invoicing, inventory, payroll and 40+ financial reports, and tracks projects and cost centres as reporting dimensions. Wafeq says more than 18,000 companies use it.

Pros

  • + Published SAR prices, monthly or yearly
  • + Wafeq says it supports ZATCA Phase 2 and links directly to Fatoora
  • + Projects and cost centres can filter the profit and loss report
  • + 14-day free trial, no card required

Cons

  • โˆ’ Prices exclude VAT
  • โˆ’ Contract is with a UAE entity, with disputes in Dubai's DIFC Courts
  • โˆ’ Accounting software, not construction project management
  • โˆ’ Enterprise tier is quote-only and billed yearly

Saudi Arabia note

Wafeq says it is a ZATCA-compliant e-invoicing solution that supports Phase 2 and connects directly to ZATCA's Fatoora platform. Its Saudi plans are priced in SAR, and its developer documentation shows projects and cost centres that can filter the profit and loss report, which lets a contractor see profit by job.

Typical Saudi Arabia pricing: Starter SAR 119/month, or SAR 1,190/year (SAR 99/month); Plus SAR 149/month, or SAR 1,430/year (SAR 119/month); Premium SAR 249/month, or SAR 2,390/year (SAR 199/month); Enterprise quote-based, yearly only. Add-ons from SAR 24/month. Prices exclude VAT. 14-day free trial, no card required.
