Exceptional product, more than exceptional support
What do you like best about the product?
Product support and customer satisfaction are worth every penny of the cost.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing at all, every aspect of the service is incredible.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We significantly reduced the number of manhours and staff required to complete our certification.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The tool is fantastic, but beyond that, we had a problem with an auditor during the audit process, and the Vanta support team responded immediately and helped remediate the situation. That alone was worth every penny we have spent on Vanta.
Key resource for reducing mental overhead of compliance
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of monitoring is crucial; automating many tasks that would otherwise fall across many teams and individuals is great to get a crystal clear view of your organizations compliance state. The path to ramping up on new compliance objects is awesome as well, as it provides a great way to get stakeholders all across the org aligned.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the rules are a bit over-prescriptive and aren't super flexible. If you don't use a standard approach to some of the monitored compliance controls, it's hard to make that monitoring work for you.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're working on multiple legislative compliance objectives. Vanta was crucial to keeping our team nimble while approaching compliance and organizing our growth journey.
Fantastic product
What do you like best about the product?
Everything. All the automated checks with remedy explanations when a test fails are fantastic. Keeps up SOC2 compliant so easily.
What do you dislike about the product?
Really nothing. The pricing for additional checklists is pretty steep though. Like we have SOC2 and ISO27001 is additional pricing and it's really high. Seems way too high.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SOC2 compliance is so easy with Vanta
Makes SOC2 Preparation Easy
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta has been a great partner in preparing for and maintaining a security program for SOC 2 audits. The platform makes it very clear what you need to do in order to maintain compliance and prepare for audits with a lot of automation that connects to popular cloud apps.
What do you dislike about the product?
The downside is added costs for multiple security frameworks if you need something in addition to SOC 2.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SOC 2 Type II audit preparation. We've been able to prepare for and facilitate a SOC 2 Type II audit out of the Vanta platform and find an auditor through Vanta's auditor partner network.
Vanta is an essential partner in our compliance work
What do you like best about the product?
Continual improvement of the platform, with a focus on usability.
What do you dislike about the product?
We've encountered some occasional bugginess when installing the Vanta Agent, but nothing highly problematic.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're using this to keep on top of SOC 2 controls. We're able to catch & address lapses quicker than we would otherwise.
Easy to use, much needed gathering place for compliance evidence!
What do you like best about the product?
I love how simple Vanta is. It's super easy to connect all necessary software to the integrations page, and it tells you how and where and why tests may be failing. You even get instructions on how to remediate them, depending on the platform.
What do you dislike about the product?
The one thing I wish would change about Vanta would be direct links to computer records in Jamf. Right now, when you click them, you're brought to the Jamf homepage and not the computer record. I also wish we could send Vanta alerts to a specified e-mail (i.e. a ticketing system or Slack channel) to be able to remediate issues ASAP.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're working on evidence gathering for SOC 2 compliance. Vanta makes the evidence gathering process extremely simple. You connect your devices, Infrastructure, and HRIS, and Vanta tells you what you need to do from there.
Easy to use, excellent customer service.
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta's customer service is excellent. They are quick to respond and helpful. Beyond that, the software itself is easily navigable. The dashboard view in particular makes it easy to address outstanding issues and stay SOC2 compliant.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's a bit tricky to upload documentation, and not every tool we use has an integration with Vanta, so some things (like international background checks) we have to keep track o and upload manually.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Vanta primarily to monitor and address potential issues with maintaining our SOC2 compliance. It's easy to use Vanta to put together a report on how quickly we address issues.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're looking to use Vanta, just know that you'll also need a remote IT provider for computer onboarding/offboarding. Other than that, it does almost everything!
Compliance automation done right
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta provides tremendous value for companies that need to map out their compliance requirements to technical controls correctly. I love the reporting capabilities as well. Sending out security questionnaires became a trivial task with Vanta.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would love to see even more standards included. Also, automating notifications to customers when there are data subprocessor changes would be an excellent addition.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are mapping various compliance requirements to appropriate technical controls. Creating a detailed gap report becomes easy with Vanta. Vendor management also.
Impressively streamlined our SOC2 certification process
What do you like best about the product?
Track your entire workflow looking for SOC2 or other certification requirements in a fully automatic fashion, providing the path to resolution in those cases you're not compliant with.
What do you dislike about the product?
I couldn't find yet any downsides within the application or their processes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SOC2 certification is extremely thorough and Vanta simplifies a lot from providing the tools, helping in the process and facilitating the access to auditors. It's a no-brainer.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Best option for SOC2 requirements mitigation.
Really simplifying solution for compliance monitoring
What do you like best about the product?
We are using Vanta to automate security compliances in taking SOC-2 report. As a startup company trying to get these kinds of security certificates, there were many complexities and unknown concepts for us. Vanta offers professional help with both of their dedicated personnel and dashboard. There are many elements you should comply with and Vanta simplifies them by suggesting what to-dos, alerting for deficiencies, and reminding upcoming issues.
What do you dislike about the product?
Vanta alerts for some errors that there can be nothing for us to do, and these are also not important for our auditors. So maybe some monitors could be customizable at a more granular level.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
There is little knowledge about the SOC-2 compliance elements that should be done. For each monitoring component, Vanta suggests what should/could be done on the dashboard. Moreover, you can ask anything related to the process to the dedicated personnel periodically.
