Vanta

What do you like best about the product?

Ease to get on track for the first cybersecurity certifications, clean navigation between menus, explicit tests and controls for each framework.

What do you dislike about the product?

Some links in between modules are still weak, and some info you enter will never be fully used, like the owners in the Inventory. A few main integrations are not working great when it comes to scoping resources,

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Automate compliance, perform technical tests on connected platforms.

What do you like best about the product?

I like the user interface. I mean, most of these tools are, you know, pretty standard at this point, but I think Vanta has used their interface and how easy it is to use and how you can run the test and just fix them really quickly and assign them to different owners. And most importantly, inviting vendors into the platform is what I like best about it.

What do you dislike about the product?

Adding personnel is such a nightmare. I feel like I never know which tab to go to. Like, personnel is it personnel? Is it members? And then setting permissions and groups? I feel like that definitely can and should be streamlined. Also, a lot of times, you know, it picks upon workspace accounts that are obviously service accounts. It would be great if it just randomly prompted me rather than to set new accounts rather than failing all the tests. That's one minor thing.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Vanta keeps a running list of our tasks, tracks assignments, notifies us of compliance issues, and assists in completing audits and maintaining compliance throughout the year.

What do you like best about the product?

I like using Vanta because it automates security and compliance across our cloud infrastructure and CI/CD pipelines. I really like the continuous monitoring feature because it helps us monitor AWS resources, developer access, endpoint security and infrastructure configuration while automatically collecting audit evidence. Additionally, it checks cloud resources, user accounts, and security configuration against compliance requirements and immediately alerts us when a control fails. It also alerts us if multi-factor authentication is disabled before it becomes an issue. It simplifies audit preparation and enables us to deploy applications faster and satisfy enterprise customer security requirements. I find it valuable for proactively resolving security risks and keeping our infrastructure compliant.

What do you dislike about the product?

I don't think there is any downside of it, it will take some more time for me to notify whether this platform has any drawbacks, But I would recommend AI powered remediations for faster and accurate results.

We liked the user experience and the trust center functionality for Vanta. But the onboarding and the account management experience has been horrible

What do you dislike about the product?

The onboarding and the account management experience has been horrible. We didn't receive our onboarding instructions two weeks after signing the contract. Had to contact our account rep repeatedly - was very active during the sales process but suddenly got "very busy" once contract was signed. Escalated to CRO and CEO but no response from either
