Hesbba as a Qoyod alternative
Hesbba is one system that keeps POS, inventory, purchasing, payroll, manufacturing and accounting on a single ledger, in Arabic, priced per plan rather than per user. Below is what that means in practice next to Qoyod, with both sides' prices as each publishes them.
One system across your whole operating cycle
Most businesses don't lack software — they lack one system: a tool for invoices, a spreadsheet for stock, a notebook for payroll, and an accountant reconciling all of it at month end. Hesbba enters the data once, at its source.
One ledger, not four systems
POS, inventory, purchasing, payroll, manufacturing and accounting all write to the same ledger. A sale drops the stock and posts its cost in the same moment, so the trial balance is ready instead of being rebuilt at month end.
Arabic-first, multi-country, multi-currency
The interface, documents and reports are Arabic by origin rather than by translation, and you invoice in your customer's currency while your books stay in yours.
Priced per plan, not per employee
A plan comes with a user allowance, so hiring someone doesn't add a line to the bill while you're inside that allowance.

The reference numbers above point to the following, all read from the Qoyod page cited at the foot of this page:
- 1Payroll and POS are priced add-ons per employee or per user rather than included modules.
- 2Users and locations are capped per plan (one user and one location on Basic), and each addition is a separate fee.
What Qoyod does well
This is our page, so it's only fair that the other product's strengths are stated as they are.
- Strong in the Saudi market and aligned with its e-invoicing requirements.
- Published, legible pricing with tiers ordered by users and locations.
Where Hesbba's scope differs
These are differences in scope and pricing model, not judgements about quality.
- Users and locations are capped per plan (one user and one location on Basic), and each addition is a separate fee.
- Payroll and POS are priced add-ons per employee or per user rather than included modules.
- Pricing is in Saudi riyals, so businesses outside Saudi Arabia deal with a currency conversion.

Prices are tax-inclusive as Qoyod publishes them. The source page labels these as 2025 plans, so confirm before relying on them.

Common questions
Is Hesbba cheaper than Qoyod?
Not always, and we don't claim it. Some of these vendors publish a free tier or an entry plan below our lowest, and the prices are published in different currencies, so they don't compare figure to figure without a conversion that would invent precision. What this page compares is scope: what a plan actually covers, and how much the bill moves as your team grows. Both sides' published prices are in front of you — run the sum for your own case.
Can I move my data across from Qoyod?
Yes. Export your customers, products and opening balances to an Excel file, and our onboarding team imports it and reconciles it with you before you start. Reconciling before go-live matters more than importing fast.
Is this comparison impartial?
It's a comparison we wrote, so read it as such. What we commit to is that every figure about the other vendor comes from their own official page with a published date, and that every difference we state rests on a published statement we print in front of you. If you find an error, tell us and we'll correct it.
Can I try Hesbba before switching?
Yes, with no credit card. The best approach is to run both systems in parallel for a month, until the first month closes and the trial balance comes out right, before switching for good.
Other comparisons
- Hesbba vs DaftraIf you want an established name in the Egyptian market and the invoice caps on the lower plans don't constrain you.
- Hesbba vs OdooIf you have a technical team or an implementation partner and need deep customisation or self-hosting.
- Hesbba vs Zoho BooksIf you need accounting only and already use other Zoho tools.
- Hesbba vs NamraIf the Business tier's 15 users covers your whole team, and you don't mind asking sales for the annual price and the module details.
- Hesbba vs ZemamIf e-invoicing filing is something you need now and cannot wait for, or your business matches one of their packages exactly and 3 seats and one branch is enough.
