Looking for an alternative to Daftra? Snad is a complete alternative built for the Saudi market
Daftra is a well-known, widely used Arabic business management system that covers accounting, invoicing, point of sale and HR, and serves several Arab markets. Snad is built exclusively for the Saudi market: every app is available on every plan (plans differ only in usage limits), with pricing that starts at SAR 0 on the permanent Starter plan, a 30-day free trial with no card, and no restrictive contracts. Competitor pricing and features last verified in July 2026 from the official pages — prices are subject to change.
Why move from Daftra to Snad?
Daftra is a good product; Snad offers deeper integration with the Saudi market.
A permanent free plan and a longer trial

HR and payroll aligned with the Saudi Labor Law
Payroll calculated in line with the Saudi Labor Law and the General Organisation for Social Insurance (GOSI), with ready-made payroll templates, leave management, and time and attendance sheets.
Transparent pricing with no surprises
Clear plans starting at SAR 149 per month with no long contracts, and additional users at SAR 20 each per month. A 30-day trial with no credit card.
