Our take
LogicGate provides SaaS-based risk and compliance solutions to help companies track and automate changing, disorganized governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) processes. Its Risk Cloud and Risk Cloud Exchange platform prioritizes flexibility and ease of use, leveraging no-code capabilities to help companies efficiently optimize their risk-management process.
A Deloitte report suggests that a vast majority of companies are aware of the need to improve their GRC practices and of the benefits that tech integrations could bring in addressing this vulnerability. GRC software like LogicGate could stand to win big as companies invest in keeping up to code - certainly, LogicGate has won significant investment to date, and has won a leading position in the GMC software market.
Indeed, businesses now recognize the importance of a robust and flexible risk-management strategy, hence LogicGate is addressing an urgent and growing demand. With the GRC software market growing impressively, the company looks set to enjoy sustained and strong growth as it remains a recognised player in the space.
