What do you like best about the product?

The best thing about Vanta for me has been how much manual effort it replaced. Before using it, I was switching between spreadsheets and chasing teammates for audit evidence. Now, I connect our tools—Google Workspace, AWS, Jira, everything—and Vanta continuously pulls data and checks controls automatically. It saves me hours each week. I also really like that it gives me a live view of our compliance status instead of a scramble at audit time. Their prebuilt policies and templates helped us get our SOC 2 done way faster than expected.

What do you dislike about the product?

Some parts of the dashboard can be a bit slow or clunky, especially when reviewing access controls .

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

It completely changed how I handle compliance. I no longer have to dig through old docs or rely on memory to prove what we’re doing. Vanta automates evidence collection and highlights what’s missing in real-time. When we went through our first SOC 2 audit, the auditor barely asked us for anything because Vanta already had it organized. It made the entire audit process smoother, and we even closed it ahead of schedule. Onboarding vendors is easier now too—there’s a whole vendor management flow that saves me back-and-forth emails.
