Oracle Aconex
Tier A ยท ListedOracle's cloud document control and project collaboration platform
Oracle Aconex is a cloud platform where every party on a project shares documents, formal correspondence (Mail) and review workflows in one auditable record; Oracle announced its purchase of Aconex in December 2017. Oracle's Aconex status page lists a Saudi Arabia (KSA1) instance and a separate Middle East (MEA) instance. In January 2026 Oracle announced that Red Sea Global had selected Aconex and Primavera P6 to connect more than 23,000 users.
Pros
- + Documents, Mail and approval workflows in one shared project record
- + Saudi Arabia (KSA1) instance listed by Oracle
- + Selected by Red Sea Global in January 2026 (per Oracle)
- + Oracle Aconex Mobile app for site teams
Cons
- โ No public prices: quote from Oracle
- โ Built for multi-party projects, more than a small contractor needs
- โ Not an accounting or ZATCA e-invoicing tool
- โ Support Central help is not offered in Arabic
Saudi Arabia note
Aconex suits main contractors, consultants and project owners who need one shared record of documents and correspondence across many companies. It does not issue tax invoices, so ZATCA e-invoicing stays in your accounting or ERP system.
Wafeq
Tier S ยท Published pricesCloud 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
- โ Prices exclude VAT
- โ Contract is with a UAE entity, with disputes in Dubai's DIFC Courts
- โ Accounting software, not construction project management
- โ 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.
