It actually works for you as promised
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta removes the complexity required to do an ISO certification and makes it available to small teams like mine, ensuring you won't die in tons of paper and endless checking processes. The automated controls, which are connected to your apps (very easily), the tests, and the framework to control all the ISO elements are excellent. And the implementation was super easy. It keeps track of things for you; you have to log in and do your daily work (if needed).
Important plus: the support was extremely fast when I had some issues.

What do you dislike about the product?
Unclear pricing renewal: I expected a lot more clarity on the split between Vanta and the auditors. The overall price might be the same or not, but it is unclear and doesn't match the initial promises. It's still worth the money, but from an excellent product, you'd expect excellent management of administrative tasks. Something changes internally, but they failed to communicate properly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Simplified the process to get the ISO 27001 and kept track of all the work needed, bringing us from step 1 (understanding how) to being certified in less than 6 months.
They also selected the auditor for us and privately managed the payment.
It was a complete guided solution.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We utilise Vanta as our Trust Center, where our customers can visit to get self-serve information on our security, privacy and Compliance programmes to help them fulfil their own vendor assements.
Great experience, wish we found Vanta years ago
What do you like best about the product?
We love the automated AWS controls which proactively alert us to security vulnerabiblities in our architecture which we would have not have found otherwise. The trust centre is excellent for reassuring our customers that we have a secure and robust infosec capability which also helps with RFPs. The automation of policy signoff for staff is very good for demonstrating compliance. We have our next major ISO audit later in the year and we hope the investment in Vanta will make that a lot simpler for our auditor.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is a lot of work to set the platform up and the control based architecture took some getting used to but now we have this setup it's working well. The dashboards can be quite noisy and it would be better if there were an easier way to flag controls as not relevant,

What do you dislike about the product?
- user roles are limited and editing their rights is not included in the main subscription tier
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Preparing for security compliance certification is a complex and burdensome from admin point of view process. Moreover, when a company wants to do a certification on several frameworks that span accross geographies, but do have overlap, it becomes even more challenging to have efficient security management process and avoid redundant work. Vanta is great in doing exactly this - helps you to focus on the important things, provides clear guidance on what and why needs to be done, as well as where it has an impact and relevance. We use three frameworks, and are getting ready for SOC 2 certification, as at the same time we want to make sure that we are HIPAA and GDPR compliant as well. It saves us a lot of time.

Vanta's interface is clean and fast, which is a refreshing change from other similar tools I've used in the past. The product works flawlessly in general.

It's been helping us consolidate several large spreadsheets into a more dynamic, web-based system.
