A streamlined path to compliance with minimal friction
What do you like best about the product?
At my current company, we used Vanta primarily to achieve SOC 2 type 2 compliance within a six month deadline as part of our growing into the US market. Our team especially in DevOps and Security used Vanta almost daily to monitor compliance readiness, track audit progress and also manage tasks. What I like best about Vanta during this use case was it’s a real time monitoring dashboard combined with pre-build integrations for Github, AWS and Jira. The customer support team was also very responsive. For one of my complex issues, they scheduled a quick zoom call without any delay. Thanks to Vanta, we had cross functional visibility as our security leads, engineering teams, and even HR could view and track their tasks on the platform.
What do you dislike about the product?
One challenge we faced was the rigid mapping of some integrations. For example, our custom CIC pipelines and get her action were not fully recognised by Vanta is automated checks we had to manually upload some of the audits artifacts to simulate compliance evidence.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
From an engineering perspective, the integration with our code repository and cloud infra meant few interruptions, we did not need to stop during an audit cycle. The data was already being monitored and aggregated. Overall Vanta didn’t just helped us pass our audit, it helped us build a culture of ongoing compliance with minimal frictions
Vanta Makes Compliance Manageable, But Not Without Minor Friction
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta's ability to simplify and break down complex concepts like compliance into manageable steps is what I find most appealing about it. We no longer need to manually update spreadsheets or search for screenshots thanks to the automated evidence collection. The platform's ability to clearly display what is finished, what is pending, and what requires urgent attention is another feature I truly value. The integrated security training and task checklists make it incredibly simple to onboard new hires into compliance workflows. It seems as though Vanta considered the actual problems and designed around them.
What do you dislike about the product?
One thing I don't like about Vanta is that some of the integrations can be a little picky, especially when you're first setting it up. A few services required multiple reconnects, and occasionally the sync status lags or doesn't update right away, which can be confusing. The platform is also excellent for structured frameworks like SOC 2, but if you have unique controls or custom internal processes, it feels a little rigid. It's not always simple to modify the flow to suit your particular setup. Finally, there is room for improvement in the reporting section with regard to exporting customized summaries for leadership updates.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The chaos of manually tracking compliance and gathering evidence is being resolved by Vanta. Prior to utilizing it, we prepared for audits using spreadsheets, dispersed emails, and screenshots, which was stressful, time-consuming, and prone to errors. By continuously monitoring our systems, gathering audit-ready evidence, and providing us with real-time task updates, Vanta automates a large portion of that work. With automated security training, policy acknowledgments, and employee onboarding, it also keeps our team accountable. In addition to saving us a great deal of time, this has greatly increased our sense of readiness and confidence when interacting with auditors.
Vanta Delivers a good product
What do you like best about the product?
I really appreciate the interactive way the content is presented. With engaging elements like Nhama, the learning experience feels more dynamic—you stay focused and absorb the material without feeling like time is dragging. It’s a smart and refreshing approach to compliance training.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have no negative points about the product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta helps me understand important points like GDPR and how customer data needs to be protected
Vanta for HIPAA in a breeze
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta helped us significantly reduce our manual work with their templates and their automation workflows. Additionally, the Vanta platform simplifies audits for us by continuously checking compliance, providing direct communication tools for our auditors, and enabling sharing of evidence without the cumbersome email chains that happen.
What do you dislike about the product?
Learning Curve for their UI/UX: The platform does a lot but often requires knowledge to best utilize it. Specifically, some things that should seem intuitive are often complex and requiring assistance.
Too noisy: The volume of notifications and pings are often too much and there isn't a simple way to fix it. Sometimes there are also false positives in compliance checks, which leads to more notifications.

Vanta as friendly to users.
What do you like best about the product?
The platform is user-friendly, even for teams that aren't deeply technical. Even first time users can go through and can navigate the platform easily.
What do you dislike about the product?
Although Vanta offers support, response times can be slow, and some users report that support agents aren’t always as knowledgeable as they should be. For a platform that requires deep technical understanding to set up and use effectively, this is a frustrating issue.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Most compliance tools are built for point-in-time audits. Vanta adds continuous monitoring (e.g., checking AWS configs, password policies, and system vulnerabilities), which helps companies stay compliant and secure over time.

Vanta Perspective from Sales Ops Admin

Streamlined Compliance
What do you like best about the product?
We’ve been using Vanta to manage our security compliance needs, and the experience has been outstanding. The platform makes what is typically a complex and time-consuming process much more manageable, especially when preparing for certifications like SOC 2
What do you dislike about the product?
While Vanta covers a wide range of integrations, there are a few niche tools we use that aren't yet supported. It would also be helpful if reporting options were more customizable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It clearly outlines the steps needed to become audit-ready and keeps us on track with actionable tasks. This structure reduced a lot of the uncertainty around what was required for our first SOC 2 certification.
