ResiPlan or GlobalSuite
GlobalSuite is a Spanish vendor founded in 2006, broad and certified. ResiPlan is a younger Belgian vendor focused on continuity. Here is what separates them, including where GlobalSuite is ahead.
GlobalSuite's strengths
What we acknowledge first.
BIA and recovery mechanics
Surveys with no account, MTPD and RTO propagated along the tree, recovery plans as sequences, tests tracked with a countdown: all described in its manual.
Audit
Audit plans, working papers, logged hours and Word reports. Clearly deeper than ours.
Certificates and track record
Nine certificates announced, including ISO 27001 since 2008 and ISO 22301 since 2013, and more than 2,000 customers according to its website.
Breadth and customisation
A configurable engine applied standard by standard, customer Word templates, fine-grained rights, copy from parent to subsidiaries.
ResiPlan's strengths
Continuity in practice
Facilitated exercises with triggers and decisions that have consequences, a crisis game, supplier failure simulation, cost of recovery.
Verifiable decisions
The crisis decision log is chained: a later change shows. The call tree runs and leaves a trace.
Benelux standards, ready to use
CyFun 2025 with a workbook in the CCB format, BIO and FNCS preloaded, and an interface in French, English and Dutch.
Public prices and a tooled exit
Prices on the website (€199–€2,999/month (billed yearly)), a 14-day trial and an export package to leave whenever you want.
Line by line
For GlobalSuite, according to its public pages. We have not tried its product.
| Topic | GlobalSuite | ResiPlan |
|---|---|---|
| BIA collection | Surveys by link with no account, consolidation, MTPD and RTO propagated down the tree. | Campaigns per entity and a guided journey for managers, with an account. Answering with no account exists for suppliers, not yet for the BIA. |
| Recovery plans | Recovery plans as reusable sequences, tests tracked with a countdown. | Activating a recovery plan creates and tracks its tasks. No reusable sequences or per-task timing yet. |
| Exercises | Plan tests are documented. Facilitated exercises are not documented in its public pages. | Facilitated exercises with triggers, a scoring grid and roles, plus a crisis game. |
| Crisis and alerting | Crisis procedures with roles and tasks. Alerts, SMS and calls through the FACT24 integration. | Crisis room, chained decision log, call tree. Alerts by email, Slack and Teams; SMS and voice not active yet. |
| Suppliers | Questionnaires with no account, SecurityScorecard rating with the customer's own subscription. | Questionnaires with no account and reminders, failure simulation and the processes affected. No external rating feed. |
| Risks | Free methodologies to configure, residual risk by formula, Monte Carlo simulation. | Ready-to-use methods including guided EBIOS RM, and a 5×5 register. Less freedom to configure. |
| Audit | Audit plans, working papers, logged hours, Word reports. | Audits and findings tracked through to the corrective action. No working papers. |
| Frameworks | A broad catalogue, a detailed ENS path. | ISO 22301, DORA, NIS2, CyFun 2025, BIO and FNCS, with mappings between them. |
| Documents | The customer's own Word and Excel templates, with variables. | PDF, Word, Excel and PowerPoint in a fixed design, with your logo. No customer Word template yet. |
| AI assistants (MCP) | OAuth 2.1 with PKCE and the user's own rights. Writes to the inventory, risks and controls. | More than 300 tools, BIA and crisis included, with an organisation key. No OAuth or individual identity yet. |
| Languages and presence | Website in EN, ES, FR, DE, PT. We found no partner described as Belgian, Dutch or Luxembourgish in its pages. | Application and website in FR, EN, NL. Belgian vendor. |
| Deployment | Shared cloud, dedicated cloud or on-premises appliance. | SaaS only. |
| Price | On quotation, no public price list. | €199–€2,999/month (billed yearly), 14-day trial. |
| Proof | Nine certificates announced, customer logos, public reviews. | No certificate or public reference yet. |
GlobalSuite may be enough if…
- You want one platform for many standards, including quality and environment.
- Your procurement requires an ISO 27001 or ISO 22301 certificate from the vendor today.
- You need an on-premises installation, or your own Word templates.
- You mainly work in Spanish, or you must follow ENS.
ResiPlan fits if…
- Continuity is your priority, and you want to test it under real conditions.
- You work in the Benelux, in Dutch or French, with CyFun or BIO.
- You want to know the price before talking to a salesperson.
- You have no team to spend weeks configuring a tool.
What ResiPlan does not do today
- Answering the BIA with no account.
- Reusable recovery sequences and per-task timing.
- The customer's own Word template.
- Alerts by SMS and by call.
- On-premises installation, and a vendor certification.
Frequently asked questions
Is this comparison neutral?
No. ResiPlan wrote it, from GlobalSuite's public pages, without trying its product. An absence only means the topic is not documented in those pages. If a line is wrong, write to contact@resiplan.eu and we will correct it.
Is ResiPlan certified to ISO 27001 or ISO 22301?
No, not today. If that certificate is a condition of your purchase, GlobalSuite meets it and we do not.
How do I move to ResiPlan?
Export your processes and BIAs to Excel, import them with a preview (unknown columns are kept), then launch a review campaign with the process owners.
Can I leave ResiPlan afterwards?
Yes. The switching page describes the procedure, and the administrator downloads the export package directly.
