Two Saudi Arabia software options, compared side by side for Saudi Arabia trades.
Which should you choose?
Bentley Systems and Qoyod are both Tier S: our check found each one's prices published on its own website, so you can compare their costs before talking to sales. The tier is not a quality ranking: weigh the pros, cons, pricing and Saudi Arabia-specific notes below against your trade and region.
Bentley Systems
Tier S ยท Published pricesInfrastructure design, BIM and 4D construction planning software
Bentley Systems makes engineering and infrastructure software, including SYNCHRO 4D for construction planning, OpenBuildings Designer for building BIM, MicroStation and ProjectWise. It lists a Saudi office, Bentley Systems Saudi Arabia, in Al Khobar. Single-user subscriptions can be bought online with published starting prices.
Pros
- + Published starting prices for single-user subscriptions
- + SYNCHRO 4D links schedules (including P6) to 3D models
- + Free trials on product pages
- + Saudi office in Al Khobar
Cons
- โ Specialist engineering tools that need trained users
- โ Subscriptions auto-renew each year per named user
- โ Online prices shown in USD or EUR, not SAR
- โ Not for back-office accounting or ZATCA e-invoicing
Saudi Arabia note
Most relevant for engineers and planners on infrastructure, utilities or large building packages rather than small fit-out firms. Bentley lists a Saudi office in Al Khobar with a local phone number.
Qoyod
Tier S ยท Published pricesSaudi cloud accounting with ZATCA e-invoicing, inventory and POS
Qoyod is a Saudi cloud accounting platform founded in Riyadh in 2016 and operated by Automated Cloud for Communications and Information Technology Company, a Saudi limited liability company. It covers accounting, ZATCA e-invoicing, inventory, POS, HR and CRM, and also serves Jordan from an office in King Hussein Business Park. Qoyod says more than 35,000 Saudi businesses use it.
Pros
- + Saudi company with a Riyadh office and Saudi terms of service
- + Qoyod says it is ZATCA-certified and submits invoices to Fatoora in real time
- + Projects and tasks on the Pro and Advanced plans
- + 14-day free trial, no card required
Cons
- โ Phase 2 e-invoicing integration starts on the Professional plan, not Basic
- โ Basic plan covers only Phase 1 e-invoicing and excludes projects and purchases
- โ Plans cap users and locations (1, 3 or 5); extra users are charged separately
- โ Accounting software, not construction project management
Saudi Arabia note
Qoyod says it is certified by ZATCA and issues Phase 1 and Phase 2 e-invoices, sending each invoice to the Fatoora platform in real time with a QR code, digital signature and cryptographic stamp. Its 2025 plan guide puts Phase 2 integration and project tracking on the Pro and Advanced plans only, so a business that ZATCA has called into a Phase 2 wave needs Pro or Advanced.
