How Risk Companion compares
If you are weighing up Riskonnect, RiskChallenger and BowTieXP or the other alternatives, start here. Most risk tools lose to a spreadsheet rather than to each other, so every page below says plainly where we win, where we lose, and where the two products are simply not answering the same question.
Built by real risk management practitioners
Designed by people who ran the workshops, kept the registers current, and sat with the decision-makers who had to act on them.
Replaces spreadsheets in a matter of days
No heavy onboarding and no implementation project. Import your register from Excel by mapping your columns.
Advanced analysis, no specialists required
Monte Carlo, EMV and bowtie diagrams are there when a team grows into them. Nobody needs to be a data scientist.

Risk Companion vs Riskonnect
Riskonnect is a full enterprise RMIS covering claims, audit, third-party and policy risk, and it also ships bowtie, Monte Carlo and AI agents. The difference is the buying process and the breadth, not a feature gap.
Read the comparisonRisk Companion vs RiskChallenger
The closest comparison we have. RiskChallenger reaches wider around the project, with risks on a map, stakeholder and environment management and named connectors. We go narrower and deeper on making a single risk understandable.

Not really a competitor. BowTieXP is a barrier-based safety suite for complex operational environments, sold to high-hazard operators. We use bowtie as a visualisation over a risk register. Different jobs.
Read the comparisonHow we write these
Every claim about another product cites that vendor’s own documentation or a named analyst listing, with the date we checked it. We do not cite aggregator roundups. Where we could not confirm a capability we say so rather than claiming it is missing, and where a competitor does something we cannot, we say that too. We do not publish competitors’ prices: the figures we found disagree with each other, and a price we cannot stand behind is worse than none. If a comparison is out of date, tell us and we will correct it.
