Streamlined Certification, but a Non-Intuitive Dashboard
What do you like best about the product?
I liked that it takes the guess work out of the certification process and streamlines the whole procedure.
What do you dislike about the product?
The dashboard is not intuitive. I find it hard sometimes to find what tasks are waiting on my approval. Also not intuitive to know what the next steps should be taken to move the process forward.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our business requires ISO 27001 software certification so it has been a big help with that.
Smooth Certification, Simple UX, Needs Better Asset Management
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Vanta standardizes our IT security in a good way and has a simple UX. It makes our certification processes go smooth.
What do you dislike about the product?
The asset management is really hard to adjust to one's needs; you can only work with 'custom items' and all the automated categories. Also, the collaboration with Workstreet does not work.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Vanta to standardize our IT security, improve communication about data security, and streamline certification processes.
Great UX That Simplifies a Complex Industry
What do you like best about the product?
Great UX and they simplify things in a complex industry.
What do you dislike about the product?
At the same time, it's still complex. Not Vanta itself, but there are a lot of complex features and things in this industry which makes Vanta still not so easy to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta is helping us get certified in SOC2
Easy to use
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use, great security functionality. Links into trust centres and pulls out security information easily.
What do you dislike about the product?
It doesn't have all the functionality to add due diligence questionnaires in separate sections to then send to different people in an organisation to complete.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Completing vendor management activities such as Due diligence.
Effortless ISO Management with Vanta
What do you like best about the product?
I really like how Vanta makes ISO management easy for those without ISO experience. The system nicely guides you through the process. It also helps us cut our ISMS management time significantly by streamlining the process and offering help on points needing action. Vanta's AI is a really helpful tool, assisting us in drafting policies that we might have struggled to start and advising on adjustments tailored to our business.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think a single point place of action would help. Outstanding documents/policies/actions could all be stored in one place. For example, owners of controls and documents, rather than having to work through them, could all be stored in one area. Also, it would be good to see a training dashboard so we can easily see where people are falling behind, rather than having to find the specific control to then access the logs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta streamlines our ISO 27001 certification process, cuts ISMS management time, and guides those without ISO experience through the process. Its AI helps draft policies and offers advice, making it easier to manage documentation and security training.
Fantastic Compliance Tool That Saves Time with Automated Testing
What do you like best about the product?
It is a fantastic compliance tool, with automated testing & process steps that save a lot of time, but also provide a fantastic framework to work within.
What do you dislike about the product?
I haven't found any so far - we use it for ISO, GDPR & Cyber Essentials Plus, and it works very well!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are a small start up business, and do not have the headcount to do all of the adminstration work needed to be compliant, so Vanta is a massive help in providing automation, structure and process management that makes this incredibly efficient as well as ensuring we are compliant.
Effortless Compliance with Vanta's Automation
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Vanta is easy to use and very collaborative, which helps save time. I appreciate the way it automates part of the accreditation process for ISO 27001 compliance. The ability to share tasks and clearly lay them out in line with the process, along with the approval process, is very helpful. The initial setup was very easy, taking our head of ops just two days to complete. Overall, I'm impressed with how Vanta streamlines compliance tasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
The tool does send too many updates by email
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Vanta for ISO 27001 compliance; it automates part of the accreditation process, saving time. It's easy to use, supports collaboration, and lays out tasks clearly with an approval process.
Intuitive, Easy to Use with Reliable Integrations and Helpful Evidence Checks
What do you like best about the product?
Intuitive and easy to use. The AI assistant helps verify the quality of evidence submissions. It also offers wide, reliable integrations with many tools. Controls are described in a holistic way, with good examples and, in some cases, templates.
What do you dislike about the product?
The AI assistant feels pretty basic as it mostly flags obvious missing items and doesn’t really go deep. The access management module is also very limited. On top of that, there’s a lot of upsell pressure, since you have to upgrade the entire plan just to unlock what should be basic features.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta helps me manage our ISMS in a structured and efficient way by centralizing compliance work and automating many controls through integrations, which significantly reduces the amount of manual evidence collection and repetitive tasks I need to do.
Simplifies Compliance with User-Friendly Efficiency
What do you like best about the product?
I really like the ease of use of Vanta's platform. It helps me manage complex processes easily, saving me time and keeping things organized so nothing gets lost. I find it beneficial to track various controls and their statuses, which makes it easier to get certifications and provide evidence.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the integrations and the user management are not very intuitive. Some of the integrations are intuitive, but setting up Astra security integration, for example, was not intuitive. The onboarding process was a bit complex, with a large number of tasks to complete. It would have been helpful to have sessions from Vanta's customer success team upfront to understand the product, but they came much later on.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Vanta to organize all tests and controls in one place and set up a trust center visible to clients. It saves me time by managing complex processes easily and tracking controls for certifications.
Clear Remediation Steps and Easy to Use Once You Get the Hang of It
What do you like best about the product?
How it explains remediation steps of each test
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing much. It was a bit difficult to understand in the beginning but once you get a hang of it, then it's very easy.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are in progress to get ISO 27001 compliant. The way it de-structured everything into tests was very nice.
