Fusion Risk Management runs on Salesforce. That decides almost everything else about the comparison — the cost, the implementation timeline, the UX, the data model. Here’s the honest side-by-side.
The deepest structural difference between the two products. Decides cost, isolation auditability, and how much you can change without breaking.
Each customer gets a dedicated Postgres schema. Independent of any third-party platform. Modern stack (Next.js 15 / RSC / Drizzle / tRPC) that doesn’t age into legacy. Pure-play BCM data model, not a Salesforce custom-object retrofit.
Fusion lives inside Salesforce’s multi-tenant infrastructure. Customers need Salesforce platform seats, often Service Cloud, and must accept Salesforce’s release cadence and platform changes. Robust isolation, but auditable only via Salesforce’s own controls — not by inspecting the underlying database.
The hidden cost. Buying Fusion isn’t just buying Fusion. Most deployments land in the $100-250K range when the Salesforce platform seats and supporting clouds are added. For SAMA-regulated mid-market buyers without an existing Salesforce footprint, that’s 80-150% more than BCMStack’s $30-60K range.
Fusion’s plan editor is a Salesforce object with custom fields configured by an admin. BCMStack ships discrete §8.4.4 columns with type validation and per-field audit trail.
Score 0-10 across data-model depth, UI maturity, and audit-evidence shape. Higher is better.
Both ship deep risk registers; Fusion benefits from Salesforce reporting
Roughly tied — Fusion has a mature BIA workflow on Salesforce
§8.4.4 native fields, §8.5 activation log, phased recovery
Fusion's mobile via SFDC; BCMStack data model deeper
ISO 22398 MSEL injects + SAMA coverage rollup are exclusive
Salesforce reports are best-in-class; BCMStack ships PDF + KPI dashboard
Fusion inherits the Salesforce ecosystem
Fusion ties into Einstein Copilot; BCMStack template-bound agents on roadmap
bcm_committee, sama_submissions, drp_plans tables ship day one

Fusion implementations are partner-led and Salesforce-config-heavy. BCMStack ships pre-configured.
BCMStack — what fits in 14 days
Fusion — typical phases
Yes. Both target mid-market and enterprise BCM buyers. The key structural difference: Fusion is built on Salesforce Lightning Platform, so customers pay for the BCM module AND the underlying Salesforce platform seats. BCMStack ships its own purpose-built platform with no third-party platform dependency. For organisations already deep in Salesforce, Fusion can leverage existing investment; for everyone else, BCMStack is typically 50-70% cheaper on like-for-like deployments.
Fusion's BCM module alone is typically $50-80K annual. Add the required Salesforce platform seats (often Service Cloud or Platform licenses) and most deployments land $100-250K total. BCMStack targets $30-60K annual, no platform tax. Pricing is published; Fusion's requires a sales call.
Fusion lives inside Salesforce's multi-tenant infrastructure with org-level isolation managed by Salesforce. BCMStack uses schema-per-tenant on Postgres — each customer gets their own schema, accessed via SET LOCAL search_path. Both are robust, but BCMStack's model is auditable directly (an information security committee can inspect the schema list); Fusion's relies on Salesforce's own controls.
Fusion stores plan content as Salesforce custom fields, which administrators can configure to roughly match §8.4.4 — but it's not native out of the box, and the data model is generic Salesforce shape rather than ISO-specific. BCMStack ships discrete columns for purpose, scope, activation criteria, deactivation criteria, classification, target RTO and target RPO with type validation and per-field audit trail.
REST API integration is on our roadmap and works in both directions — pull customer master data into BCMStack, push BCM metrics to Salesforce dashboards. We don't yet ship a one-click AppExchange package, but the integration model is straightforward and most customers wire it up in 1-2 days.
We’ll walk you through the platform and show what your current Fusion-on-Salesforce deployment would look like on BCMStack — including cost calculations on like-for-like deployments.
