Abaj Contracting LLC: Migrating from Tally to Zoho Books for Smarter, Simpler Accounting

December 29, 2025

For construction and contracting companies, managing accounts efficiently is critical to maintaining cash flow, controlling costs, and ensuring timely invoicing. However, legacy accounting systems can often slow teams down, limit accessibility, and increase dependency on manual processes.

Abaj Contracting LLC, a UAE-based contracting company specializing in turnkey construction projects, partnered with Abacus IT Solutions to migrate from Tally to Zoho Books, enabling a more user-friendly, accessible, and streamlined accounting system.


The Challenge: Limited Flexibility and Manual Accounting Processes

Abaj Contracting LLC is involved in executing luxury villas, steel structure buildings, warehouses, factories, labour camps, RCC multi-storey buildings, and mosques across the UAE. As project volumes increased, the company found its existing accounting system restrictive.

Using Tally limited ease of access and flexibility, especially when handling progress-based invoicing and day-to-day receivables and payables. Open invoices and bills were managed separately, increasing the effort required to track outstanding balances. The lack of modern reporting and accessibility made accounting processes more time-consuming than necessary.

The company required a simpler, cloud-based accounting platform that could support its construction workflows while improving usability and efficiency.


The Solution: Migrating to Zoho Books

Abacus IT Solutions migrated Abaj Contracting LLC from Tally to Zoho Books, ensuring continuity of financial data while modernizing accounting operations.

The solution focused on streamlining core accounting functions while improving accessibility and ease of use for finance teams.


How Zoho Books Improved Accounting Operations

With Zoho Books in place, Abaj Contracting LLC benefited from:

  • Progress invoicing tailored for project-based billing
  • Customized PDF invoice templates aligned with company branding
  • Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable management for better cash flow tracking
  • Upload and management of open invoices and bills during migration
  • Cloud-based access, enabling easier and faster accounting operations

The intuitive interface and centralized system reduced dependency on manual tracking and simplified daily accounting tasks.


The Impact: Faster, More Efficient Accounting

The migration delivered immediate improvements in efficiency and control.

Accounting processes became significantly more streamlined, reducing time spent on manual entries and reconciliation. Progress invoices were easier to manage, outstanding receivables and payables were clearly visible, and invoice management became more structured and accessible.

The cloud-based nature of Zoho Books improved usability, allowing teams to access financial data easily and work more efficiently across projects.

“Migrating to Zoho Books simplified our accounting operations and reduced the time spent on daily financial tasks, making the system easier to use and manage.”


Conclusion

By migrating from Tally to Zoho Books with Abacus IT Solutions, Abaj Contracting LLC moved to a modern, user-friendly, and cloud-based accounting platform. The transition helped streamline accounting processes, improve visibility into receivables and payables, and support efficient financial management across construction projects.
