About Hesbba

About Hesbba — why we built a multi-country Arabic ERP

Most Arabic accounting software treats the journal entry as extra work an accountant does after the sale is over. We built Hesbba on the opposite idea: the document is the event, and the entry is its natural consequence.

The problem we started from

Small businesses in this region rarely suffer from too little software. They suffer from too much: a tool for invoices, a spreadsheet for stock, a notebook for payroll, and an external accountant who assembles it at month end and finds the discrepancies late. Each of those systems is correct on its own — the errors live in the gaps between them.

The principles we build on

  • Arabic first, not translated

    Built in Arabic from the text direction to the accounting terminology to noun agreement after a number — not an English interface with a translation layer.

  • Multi-country by design

    Tax rates, charts of accounts and currencies are configured for your country, so no single market is baked into the product.

  • Your data leaves with you

    Export any record to Excel, CSV or through the API at any time. No exit fees and no limits.

  • No numbers we can't stand behind

    You won't find a customer count, a feature count or a delivery promise on this site that we can't substantiate. An easy claim costs more trust than it earns.

How we work with customers

We don't hand you a link and a manual. An accounting team sets up your account with your real books, trains your people, and stays until your first month closes and the trial balance comes out right — because a correct first close is the moment you know the system works, not the day you sign up.

Questions about the company

Where is my data stored?

Hesbba is cloud-based and backups are part of the subscription. Hosting details and storage locations are set out in the privacy policy and at contracting, and updated when they change.

What happens to my data if I stop?

Nothing is deleted when a subscription ends. The account becomes read-only, and you can export everything at any time before or after.

Do you support external accountants?

Yes. You can give your accountant their own free login that sees the books and nothing else, so they work on live figures rather than files sent at month end.
