ResiPlan vs Noggin
Noggin (Motorola Solutions) is strong in crisis management, alerting and field safety. ResiPlan brings a complementary scope: deep BCMS, 36 risk methodologies, native CRA, DORA/NIS2, EU hosting and ResiGuard Android app.
What Noggin does well
Strong crisis management + alerting
Noggin (Motorola Solutions) is a mature BCM + emergency management platform with strong incident coordination, mass notification and crisis team workflows.
Mobile apps for field teams
Noggin offers dedicated mobile apps for field safety, incident reporting, and crisis response — useful for field-heavy organizations (healthcare, utilities, transportation).
Safety management heritage
Roots in WHS (Work Health & Safety) and EHS give Noggin depth in safety incident reporting, duty-of-care and field safety — common in APAC/mining/utilities.
Where ResiPlan wins
Native CRA (2024/2847) module
SBOM (CycloneDX/SPDX), CVD workflow with RFC 9116 security.txt, Annex I self-assessment, market surveillance. Noggin is not positioned as a CRA/product security tool.
36 risk methodologies vs Noggin's generic risk module
FAIR, ISO 27005, EBIOS RM, Bow-Tie, Monte Carlo, NIST 800-30, OCTAVE, MEHARI. Noggin has a risk module but lacks quantitative methods (FAIR, Monte Carlo) and specialized methodologies (EBIOS RM, MEHARI).
Crisis Gaming with AI injections
40+ tabletop scenarios, real-time AI injections, decision scoring, auto-debrief. Noggin has exercises but no AI-driven injections, no automated RETEX, no scoring.
DORA Art. 5–25 + NIS2 + CRA native coverage
ResiPlan ships EU regulatory mappings turnkey. Noggin supports emergency management standards but DORA/NIS2/CRA mappings require custom configuration.
Android companion app (ResiGuard)
ResiGuard Android app for plans, reflex cards, incident declaration, offline-capable. Noggin also has mobile apps — both strong here, but ResiPlan's app is integrated tight with BCMS plans and reflex cards, not just field safety.
Mass notification native to BCMS
ResiPlan ships a 7-channel mass alerting module (SMS, voice, email, push, Slack, Teams, WhatsApp) triggered directly from incidents, plans or exercises — with safety check-in, auto-escalation and GDPR consent tracking. Noggin is excellent at alerting but remains a separate platform; you pay for both sides.
EU hosting (France/OVH) by default
ResiPlan runs on OVH France. Noggin is Australian-headquartered with multi-region hosting; EU residency needs to be negotiated.
Transparent pricing €49–€499/month
Published plans, free 14-day trial. Noggin is quote-based with typical annual deals €50K–€200K+ depending on modules and users.
AI module optional — deactivable for sensitive sectors
Defense, intelligence, sovereign organizations can disable AI entirely and keep BCMS, 36 methodologies and compliance fully operational. Noggin's AI features cannot be cleanly turned off.
