One stop shop for all SOC2 compliance needs
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate how Vanta became my single focus in addressing all of the various needs and requirements for SOC2. It was intuitive, clear and made the process simple.
What do you dislike about the product?
On the rare occasion, the Vanta agent wouldn't report back an updated status from a user computer even after a few days. I'd really be nitpicking here to find odd things to dislike.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta is helping us through SOC 2 type 2 compliance. Our first go around. It still was a time consuming lift but the process was made significantly simpler.
fantastic tool
What do you like best about the product?
It's very intuitive and easy to use from the admin perspective.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are occasional breakdowns in integrations.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping our organization under compliance and providing us with the security we need.
Very helpful compliance tool for non-experts
What do you like best about the product?
Platform is helpful in outlining in a prescriptive manner what is required for various compliance items allowing those without a background in Compliance to run a compliant organization
What do you dislike about the product?
Integrations with other platforms can be a bit finicky
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Understanding specific policies, procedures, and controls needed to demonstrate compliance
A one-stop shop platform for compliance purposes
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta has proven to be a life-saver when it comes to ensuring compliance for our ISO accreditations. It is well-organised and structured, user-friendly and houses everything we, and our auditor, needs in one place. The frequent reminders on outstanding tasks are very useful.
What do you dislike about the product?
I can't think of any at this point - I find it to be a very instinctive and efficient tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta allows us to access all our policies and our risk register in one place, as opposed to them being scattered across our internal systems. Everything is centralised and esasily accessible by employees. It has saved us a lot of time and ensured we have successfully passed all our audits.
Features enabled a small startup to handle security compliance efficiently.
What do you like best about the product?
As a small startup Vanta helped us achieve compliance quickly and efficiently without spending an inordinate amount of time on the process. Vanta made the process very clear, and guided us through the process well. The dashboard is decently organized and helped us see at a glance how close we were to be ready for audit. For a small team Vanta helped us stay on top of any requirements without feeling overwhelmed.
What do you dislike about the product?
What I disliked about Vanta was that some of the integrations felt a bit clunky and weren't as seamless as I had hoped. There were moments when they required extra effort to set up or troubleshoot, which slowed down the process. With a bit more polish, those integrations could have been smoother and more intuitive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta helped make our security compliance as a small startup less of an ordeal. It enabled us to move fast, and achieve SOC2 compliance quickly. We did not previous experience of dealing with SOC2 compliance, and the guided nature of Vanta really helped us get there quickly. We likely wouldn't have been able to move anywhere near as fast without Vanta. Being able to see at a glance where we were in the process and each step we had to do was invaluable.
All in one experience
What do you like best about the product?
The prompts to action on items for compliance. Very easy to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
Difficult to navigate unless you have link to exact item. I just feel like I have a million tabs open on my browser sometime.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Compliance to different standards to secure the user and admins.
Experience with VANTA
What do you like best about the product?
The tool allows for multiple modules to control various components of management systems, such as the compliance part for control issues according to the framework. Additionally, it allows for risk management, vendor management, and it is excellent.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would improve some things in the risk module, as it currently does not have them. For example, I would allow it to be more focused on other types of risk such as business, legal, etc., and when these categories are selected, the fields I need to fill out for this type of risk would be enabled. Even in the information security risk section, I would bring by default the fields for information assets and link them with the asset module.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
They help and contribute to the facilitation and management of information according to the framework we have certified, for example, ISO 27001, 27018, ISO 27701, etc. This has made it easier for us to load evidence, select controls, among other things.

Vanta ISMS Review - ISO 27001 and Trust Centre
What do you like best about the product?
We are currently utilising Vanta for ISO 27001 compliance, and it has been instrumental in helping us maintain our certification. One particularly valuable feature is its proactive compliance management, which provides timely alerts on expiring checks. A real concern for us was ensuring that compliance remains an ongoing priority rather than a one-and-done type of exercise, preventing any lapse in security as we continue to scale. Balancing proactive compliance methods with growth has been a constant juggling act for any scale-up.
We have found Vanta’s Trust Centre to be an invaluable asset, providing real-time access to our cybersecurity offerings, which we can efficiently share with customers cutting down time doing DDQs. Additionally, it serves as a central repository for critical security documentation, including DPAs, T&Cs, and cybersecurity reports, while also allowing us to manage and display our subprocessors for greater transparency and accessibility.
Our decision to choose Vanta over alternative solutions was primarily driven by its responsiveness and commitment to continuous improvement. Upon onboarding, we identified that our primary cloud provider was not yet supported, and Vanta was really good in accounting for this and promising to get this implemented in the future. Lo and behold, they are now supported bridging this gap for us.
Furthermore, Vanta has significantly enhanced our device management capabilities. We rely on the platform to track all company laptops, ensuring that they adhere to minimum security requirements and remain compliant with our internal policies.
Looking ahead, as we plan to expand into the US, Vanta’s ability to seamlessly integrate additional frameworks, such as SOC 2, will be essential in maintaining our security and compliance standards across multiple markets.
Overall, Vanta has provided us with a robust, scalable, and efficient solution for managing security and compliance, making it an indispensable part of our operations.

What do you dislike about the product?
While Vanta is a powerful compliance solution, it does have some limitations, particularly for businesses that do not rely on major providers - which can limit your flexibility in scaling.
If an application is not natively supported, compliance gaps must be addressed manually, which can add to the operational burden and will give you inaccurate scores on "completion" of a certification.
Although Vanta is responsive to customer needs and continues to expand its integrations, there is no guarantee that less common or niche tools will be supported. This means businesses using custom-built systems or non-mainstream applications may struggle to fully automate compliance tracking, reducing the efficiency of Vanta’s real-time monitoring capabilities.

The Trust Centre has been incredibly useful for our security posture by providing real-time visibility into our cybersecurity measures, allowing us to easily share compliance reports, agreements, and subprocessors with customers.

Great product!
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta helped me get SOC 2 certified. It was easy to integrate, the onboarding support was good, and it helped satisfy my auditor. It also notifies via slack when things get out of shape, so it is easy for me to stay ahead of the issues all the time.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it is not clear enough how to fix the problem. Might be inherent with the benchmark, not Vanta's fault. Also - auditor still wants to add custom documents and proof.

Helped me get SOC 2 certified and helps me stay that way
