Choose Construction Software That Actually Fits Your Business
Not all construction management platforms are created equal. Some are built for US enterprises with US budgets. Some are too simple to scale. Some require BIM expertise you don't have. Arkan is built for Gulf construction companies who want power without complexity.
Three Types of Construction Software. Three Sets of Problems.
Enterprise Tools
Powerful but complex, costly, and slow to deploy.
Built for US markets with US budgets. Hidden pricing, 6-month implementations, and per-seat fees that punish collaboration.
See ComparisonLightweight PM Tools
Simple but limited. No Arabic. No API. Can't scale.
Great for getting started, but you'll outgrow them. No P6 integration, no BOQ management, no payment automation.
See ComparisonBIM-First Platforms
Specialized but overkill for most projects. Steep learning curve.
Designed for 3D model coordination. If your projects use 2D drawings, you're paying for features you'll never use.
