Key Differences Between
Prevalent and ComplyScore®

Category

Prevalent

ComplyScore®

Lifecycle Coverage

Covers the full TPRM lifecycle, including onboarding, monitoring, and termination. However, users frequently cite onboarding complexity and steep learning curves. 

Provides full-spectrum TPRM coverage: onboarding, due diligence, contract and renewal tracking, real-time monitoring, remediation, and termination, all orchestrated through intelligent workflows and SME-backed onboarding

Risk Domain Coverage

Monitors 70+ external cyber vectors, ideal for surface-level posture evaluation; less emphasis on internal compliance risks.

Focuses on 19 high-impact domains (cyber, legal, financial, ESG, privacy) designed for regulated enterprises. Offers in-depth governance vs. broad scanning.

Regulatory Alignment

Supports frameworks like ISO 27001 and NIST. Limited insight into healthcare or India’s DPDP Act; users note generic regulatory coverage.

Pre-aligned with HIPAA, GDPR, ISO 27001, SOC 2, HITRUST, and DPDP — reducing compliance lift across jurisdictions with deeper audit traceability.

Attack Surface Management (ASM)

Not available. No features for external asset discovery, shadow IT detection, or attack vector mapping

Includes ASM as part of a broader TPRM strategy, aligned with vendor risk tiering, assessments, and compliance frameworks for more actionable insights

Assessment and Questionnaires

Includes 800+ templates and AI-assisted forms. However, questionnaire management is clunky for large surveys and lacks batch editing

Offers multilingual, AI-enabled, risk-tiered assessments with scalable logic, designed to reduce manual input and improve vendor response velocity

Monitoring and Alerts

Continuous cyber and financial monitoring. Reviewers report a lack of granularity and limited real-time vendor risk insights

 

Tracks credentials, licenses, sanctions, and vendor posture with proactive escalations — optimized for real-time remediation and regulatory audits

Security Ratings

Proprietary scoring engine (0–950). Transparency into scoring models and risk enforcement is limited

Ratings are embedded into contextualized risk profiles, overseen by SMEs, and tied directly to remediation planning and audit goals

Usability and Learning Curve

UI is clean but lacks intuitiveness. Dashboard customization is restricted; training materials are sparse

Dashboards are fully customizable, clean, and built for compliance and procurement users, backed by real-time onboarding support

Workflow Automation

Includes automated risk scoring and offboarding. Reviewers cite inflexible formatting, single-question editing, and lack of quick review modes

 

Workflow engine supports multi-step escalation, contextual triggers, approval routing, and SLA tracking, all configurable without dev support

 

AI Capabilities

AI is used for survey prefill and scoring. Lacks visible AI governance and transparency in risk decisions

Supports AI-driven risk scoring, assessment sentiment analysis, predictive insights, and regulatory readiness evaluation

Customer Support

Offers managed services, but users cite limited help center documentation and slow support during platform updates

Global team of 100+ SMEs provides live onboarding, issue resolution, and co-managed risk assessments tailored to program maturity

Integration and API

Limited flexibility. Users express the desire for more extensibility and quick screening during the RFP stage.

ComplyScore integrates with ERPs, ticketing tools, and BI systems via robust APIs and offers RFP-stage vendor snapshot previews without full licensing commitment.

Why is ComplyScore® the Best Alternative to UpGuard?

Prevalent delivers strong cyber risk monitoring, but ComplyScore® goes further with dynamic workflows, compliance alignment, and SME-driven vendor governance, making it the better fit for organizations prioritizing regulatory depth and operational maturity.
