PolicySuite vs LogicGate Risk Cloud
A neutral, factual comparison. LogicGate is a flexible no-code GRC workflow engine with real strengths in risk management. PolicySuite is purpose-built for the policy layer. They can co-exist — and often do.
TL;DR
Quick answer. LogicGate Risk Cloud is a flexible GRC workflow engine — risk registers, vendor risk, audit management — strongest at enterprise scale. PolicySuite is the policy layer specifically: bespoke generation, jurisdiction-aware content, distribution and acknowledgement tracking. Teams with both needs commonly run the two together.
- Choose LogicGate if your priority is a flexible GRC workflow engine — risk registers, vendor risk, audit management, issue tracking — with strong customisation at enterprise scale.
- Choose PolicySuite if your priority is the policy layer specifically: bespoke generation, jurisdiction-aware content, distribution, acknowledgement, and clause-level scanning.
- Use both if you already run LogicGate for risk and audit. PolicySuite slots in as the purpose-built policy system and the two complement each other well.
Feature comparison
Quick answer. The table compares a workflow engine against a purpose-built policy platform. LogicGate wins on configurable GRC workflows across risk domains; PolicySuite wins on the policy lifecycle itself — 990+ bespoke generated policies, 197 frameworks, acknowledgement tracking and clause-level scanning.
| Capability | PolicySuite | LogicGate Risk Cloud |
|---|---|---|
| Primary focus | Policy management platform | GRC workflow engine, strong in risk |
| Bespoke policy generation | 990+ policies generated from business Q&A, LLM-powered | Template-based; no bespoke generation |
| Framework coverage | 197 frameworks across 8 jurisdictions | Broad framework alignment via the workflow engine |
| Risk management | Not offered | Core capability — risk registers, scoring, treatment, reporting |
| Workflow customisation | Configurable review and approval steps | Industry-leading no-code workflow builder |
| Policy distribution | Magic-link distribution, training-gated acknowledgement | Workflow-driven; depends on configuration |
| Clause-level compliance scanning | LLM-powered scanning against framework requirements | Not offered in the same form |
| Jurisdiction-specific content | UK, EU, US, AU, CA, CH, SG, DE | Agnostic — content depends on what you configure in |
| Auditor portal | Included | Configurable via the workflow engine |
| Pricing | One-off: from £29.99 per policy; packs of related policies; unlimited licence POA | Enterprise-tier POA, typically multi-year |
When PolicySuite is the better fit
Quick answer. Choose PolicySuite when the gap is policy authoring and distribution rather than workflow customisation — the position many UK SMEs and mid-market compliance teams are in. It ships with the flows compliance teams typically need, and the bespoke generator produces policies that reflect how your business actually operates instead of templates with placeholders.
- Your gap is policy authoring and distribution, not workflow customisation. PolicySuite ships with the flows compliance teams typically need, so you don't spend weeks configuring a generic engine.
- You want bespoke policies, not templates with placeholders. PolicySuite's LLM-powered generation asks structured questions about your business and produces policies that reflect how you actually operate.
- You need jurisdiction-aware content out of the box. UK, EU, US, AU, CA, CH, SG, DE — without configuring framework libraries yourself.
- You want clause-level compliance scanning. LLM-powered scanning catches drift from framework requirements as you edit.
- Budget and time-to-value matter. PolicySuite is materially cheaper than enterprise GRC and deployable same-day for small teams.
When LogicGate is the better fit
Quick answer. Choose LogicGate when risk management is the core need — its risk register, scoring models and treatment workflows are genuinely strong — or when an enterprise GRC team wants one customisable platform orchestrating risk, audit, vendor management and issue tracking.
- Risk management is the core need. LogicGate's risk register, scoring models, and treatment workflows are genuinely strong.
- You need deep workflow customisation across multiple GRC domains. If you want one platform to orchestrate risk, audit, vendor management, and issues — with your own custom workflows — LogicGate is purpose-built for that.
- You're an enterprise GRC team. LogicGate rewards teams that can invest in configuration, governance of the platform, and ongoing optimisation.
- You want one vendor for the broader GRC stack. Enterprise buyers often prefer consolidation; LogicGate can cover ground beyond policy.
Running PolicySuite alongside LogicGate
Quick answer. The typical split keeps LogicGate for risk, vendor and audit workflows and moves policy authoring, distribution and acknowledgement to PolicySuite. Nothing needs replacing — for example, risk registers, vendor assessments and audit tracking stay in LogicGate while the policy documents PolicySuite produces feed the evidence workflows it manages.
This is the typical pattern: LogicGate for risk, audit, and vendor workflows; PolicySuite for the policy layer. The two integrate naturally:
- Keep LogicGate for risk and GRC workflows. Risk registers, vendor assessments, and audit tracking stay in place.
- Move policy authoring to PolicySuite. Generate bespoke policies, distribute them, and track acknowledgement in the purpose-built system.
- Reference policies in LogicGate workflows. Attach finalised PDFs to LogicGate records where control evidence is needed.
- Export acknowledgement reports. PolicySuite provides audit-ready reports on policy acknowledgement that can feed LogicGate audit workflows.
Teams that make this split typically report faster policy turnaround and lower platform complexity without giving up their risk and audit tooling.
