The support level is amazing and the platoform is easy to use.

Drata gives us an easy to use platfrom with a great UI. Compliance can be quite difficult but Drata helps to simplify the process.

Continuous improvement causes some glitches. Very responsive support network.

  • September 29, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Drata has made our compliance program much more structured and regimented. The guiedlines and timelines keep us up to speed on what we need to review and update. The software is very user friendly. Implementation was very easy. I am on the software daily to monitor our cybersecurity system. Customer support responds quickly. Even when I have a more difficult question, they keep me apprised.
What do you dislike about the product?
Drata seems to be continually improving their system. There were some times when they implmented features that seemed to generate some false negatives on testing. These were resolved quickly, but we sometimes spent time investigating these that we would have liked to save.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeps programs and tasks in order and allows us to put all our information in one place. We are small, very lean company. I am not a technology person. However, the software is easy to use and intuitive.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is helping us organize our efforts toward becoming SOC 2 compliant.

a friendly UI to work on compliance, with acceptable automation

  • September 28, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I think its interface is friendly, easy to understand and intuitive.
What do you dislike about the product?
Feature requests are not always taken into account (although I know they are compared against other clients) and the result of the review of an FR is not communicated in the best way, so that we can know the status.

However, some CSs have improved this process, but in the end, everything remains in a backlog.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Maintain an optimal Security posture, which allows for streamlining business processes with new clients.

However, I must say that more work is required to minimize the efforts required in manual interventions as much as possible.

An example of this is that when I seek support to fix an issue, I am given a CSV template, which requires manually popularizing it. This doesn't make sense when you talk about automation.

The amount of work required to get to compliance, in this case SOC2.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SOC2 compliance helps us win more business.


    Computer Software

A useful solution

  • September 27, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Nice UI, nice cloud vendor tooling tie ins to AWS & GCP.
Easily see your IT assets and allocated users.
Useful top down view of compliance checklists all in one place.
Handy lightweight MDM solution with agents for all OSes and a web dashboard / onboarding flow for users.
Out of the box SSO/SAML IdP integrations like Google auth.
What do you dislike about the product?
Very limited custimization options. Because there is no way to customize user IT asset compliance rules, if you don't do things 100% the Drata way, 100% of yours users will show as non-compliant all the time, becaus there is no way to customize the ruleset Drata uses. This makes the compliance dashboard of limited value.

This is an overall theme in Drata. It's highly opinionated, so if you do things 100% their way, it works well, but if not you'll never see a complete compliance picture due to continuous false positives. This can also be seen in the cloud asset compliance checks and VCS checks. If you have no existing SOC2 apparatus, and want to use the Drata way hook line and sinker, this can work well, but if you have an existing compliance process, you'll possibly feel constrained in your ability to tailor Drata to fit.

Finally custom API integrations are rudimentary. The fact that you must open a support engineer directly to get an API key speaks to this currently being a rudimentary feature, rather than a rich API layer. We had to reverse engineer APIs and use UI tokens/sessions to automate processes, rather than the official Drata APIs to get things automated.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Top down single source of compliance state and information.


    Hospital & Health Care

Ease of compliance w Drata

  • September 27, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The continuous monitoring of controls and regular updates on missing compliance
What do you dislike about the product?
They don't have international background check integrated w Checkr. Atleast they didn't have it while we were getting onboarded.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It streamlines the various compliances for us, mainly SOC2 Type2 & HIPAA. Being into healthcare tech, these compliances are of utmost importance and Drata has definitely eased the process.

An easy to use compliance management software

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Drata monitors our systems daily and raises alerts whenever something is amiss. Integrations are also seamless with many of the systems we use. It also makes audits like SOC2 easy by automating a lot of controls.
What do you dislike about the product?
Although the evidence management flow has been simplified, it can be improved further.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Automated compliance checks for our systems and helping with audits.


    Financial Services

Good system which is easy to use.

  • September 27, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Automated task manager. Audit sync ability. Integrated with our HR system, need to explore other integrations to get the best out of it.
Customer support team are quick at responding and supporting the process.
What do you dislike about the product?
No export option on any pages. This would make a lot easier when tracking and sharing updates with c-suite staff.
Ability to change the view, for example - tasks outstanding are in a view of by month, would be useful to have this interchangeable into a monthly calendar view (which can also be exported) so you can quickly see tasks needing focus for the month ahead.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ensuring that we have got all policies in order and making sure these are reviewed regularly. Creating one source of the truth which is easy to share with team members for 1 quick check.
