Software for UAE businesses, without Dubai agency overheads.
Growbz is a software and app development company that builds for businesses in Dubai and across the UAE. We make Android and iOS apps from one codebase, installable web apps, customer portals and booking systems, websites, and custom business software such as CRM, billing and payroll. Every project is quoted in AED as one fixed price against a written scope.
We are based in Chennai, India, and we will not pretend otherwise: there is no Dubai office in your price. What you get instead is a team whose working day almost matches yours, because Dubai is only 1.5 hours behind Chennai, and a way of working the UAE already runs on: WhatsApp during the day, workshops on video, and a working build on your phone every week.
UAE projects bring requirements Indian ones often do not, and we plan for them from the start: Arabic and English with right-to-left layouts, payment gateways that settle in AED, and companies with staff and entities in both India and the UAE. This website runs in English and Arabic, and our payroll product runs INR and AED pay groups side by side.
What we build
App, web and software development for the UAE.
Android and iOS apps
One cross-platform codebase for both stores, with the backend and admin panel your team needs to run it.
Installable web apps
Progressive web apps that install from a link with no store approval, the lower-cost route for portals and ordering.
Portals and booking systems
Customer, dealer and tenant logins, appointment booking and order tracking, with WhatsApp and email notifications.
Websites in English and Arabic
Fast business websites and online stores, with proper right-to-left Arabic rather than a translated afterthought.
Custom business software
CRM, billing, inventory and operations systems built around your process, with no per-user licence fees.
Payroll for India and the UAE
Multi-entity payroll with INR and AED pay groups, the problem our own product Growbzpayroll was built to solve.
What we have built
Software we run ourselves, and client platforms live today.
We do not have a UAE client case study to show yet, and we would rather say so. What we can show: our own products, Growbzpayroll for companies paying staff in India and the UAE, and PG Platform with an operator console and two apps, plus client platforms with member accounts, registrations and online payments that are live today.

How a project runs

A clickable prototype you can try on your phone, in English and Arabic if you need both, approved before development begins.
-

Weekly builds
A new build every week, reviewed on a short call, with questions answered on WhatsApp the same day.

04
Launch and handover

Who we build for
Owner-run UAE businesses that want software built properly, at a fair price.
Trading and distribution companies, clinics, real-estate brokers, restaurants and cloud kitchens, service firms and founders building a product, in Dubai, Sharjah and Abu Dhabi. If you need developers sitting in your office every day, a local agency is the better fit, and we will tell you so on the first call.

Questions UAE businesses ask us
With Growbz, an installable web app costs AED 3,500–7,500 and a cross-platform Android and iOS app with its backend and admin panel costs AED 11,000–35,000. The price is fixed in writing after a scoping workshop, once the screens, users and integrations are clear.
No. We are based in Chennai, India, and work with UAE clients remotely. Dubai is 1.5 hours behind Chennai, so our working days overlap almost completely: workshops happen on video and questions are answered on WhatsApp during your day.
Yes. We build bilingual English and Arabic interfaces with proper right-to-left layouts. This website is an example: our main pages are available in both languages.
You receive a clean AED invoice and pay by bank transfer or card. As an export of services from India, no Indian GST is added. For UAE VAT, ask your accountant how reverse charge applies to imported services; for most SMEs it is a line in the normal VAT return.
Your company does. Google Play and App Store accounts and hosting are registered to your business, and the code is handed over at launch, so you can move to any developer in the future.
Not yet: our client results so far are from India. You can check our own products, our live client platforms and the month-by-month results we publish, and judge the work before you commit.
