Questions, answered.
How much does custom software development for trading and distribution cost?
Most projects fall between AED 70,000 – AED 350,000, with a typical timeline of 10–28 weeks. The main cost drivers are the number of user roles, integrations, Arabic content and how polished the first release must be. You get a fixed price after a short scoping call.
Are you ready for UAE e-invoicing?
Yes. We structure invoice data so it can flow to an accredited e-invoicing service provider as the mandate phases in.
Why custom instead of an off-the-shelf ERP?
Custom makes sense when your process is a competitive advantage or when you're paying for a large ERP but using 10% of it. Often the best answer is a hybrid: keep the ERP for accounting and build custom around it.
