Vanta pulls together almost all the evidence I need
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta integrates almost all the sources of information I need for my audit and alerts me when compliance issues are found.
It's incredibly easy to get up and running, and I can make tremendous progress against our audit objectives in just a few weeks.
It's incredibly easy to get up and running, and I can make tremendous progress against our audit objectives in just a few weeks.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some seemingly arbitrary limits to the integrations, such as only allowing a single HRIS, requiring a new onboarding for an employee who boomerangs, and a few tools being limited to only more-expensive versions of their services
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are a very small organization that is trying to manage a SOC 2 Type II process. Vanta is easing the path immensely.

Very Useful for Managing Compliance
What do you like best about the product?
Picking which compliance modues to use. Then having all of the requirements laid out for completing each task make it easy to use. They are very responsive for customer support. There are a variety of integrations that caused us to switch some of our providers to make Vanta easier to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much. It works well. It would be nice if they had package deals on pricing when you get muliple modules. Or bundles like 3 modules for XXX or 5 modules for YYY.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We decided to become SOC 2 compliant. We first approached an accounting firm, which was expensive and very time consuming. There was often miscommunication. Vanta's controls are laid out very well making it easy to use. We liked it so much that we added the PCI module and are working through it.
Turned a Daunting Project into a Doable One
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta has helped make the SOC 2 process ten times easier than it would have been without it. The integrations, policy templates, risk register, list of controls, and myriad other features have helped streamline and automate what would have been a very time-consuming, manual process.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is a bit of a learning curve when it comes to learning the tool, but Vanta's support materials are quite thorough. The times when we haven't been able to find an answer, we reached out to their customer support team and they responded with an in-depth answer within 24 hours.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta automates and streamlines the audit management process, which has enabled my team to focus on the more in-depth parts of preparing for the audit (rather than needing to focus on the more administrative aspects).
Great system
What do you like best about the product?
Has automatic tests that helps me understnad easily what the next steps are to mitigate. A lot of integrations.
What do you dislike about the product?
A bit overwhelming at first glance, not sure where to start.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Consdolidates the things I need to do
Streamlined Compliance With Ease
What do you like best about the product?
The centralized experience of having all controls, tests, and documents sorted in a single place. Having the assistance of Vanta Support for technical platform issues or questions, and the advise of the CSM for compliance matters.
What do you dislike about the product?
The integration extent is not 100%, Vanta didn't offered integration to all of our tech stack
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
They helped us to comply with the SOC2 Type 2 security framework.
Almost SOC in a box
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta's automated evidence gathering is essential to compliance alignment. The progress tracking eases managment's understanding of complexities.
What do you dislike about the product?
There have been some UI updates that have removed some helpful information.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We provide unique solutions and have been getting pressure from several clients to get ISO27001 or equivalent certification including SOC2. Our orgainzation has been executing in startup/growth mode and this helps communicate maturity opportunities.
Seamless and organized.
What do you like best about the product?
All doc uploaded and covers all aspects of GRC.
What do you dislike about the product?
Too many alerts, some are false alerts. Vanta needs to find a way to minimize the alerts.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
GRC, Risk reg.
One place to rule them all
What do you like best about the product?
I like the automation part of the tool.
It gives great value to not having to manually perform tests and validations on various controls.
It gives great value to not having to manually perform tests and validations on various controls.
What do you dislike about the product?
One small but significant (to us) issue I've encountered is the inability to set the 'recurrence start' for uploaded documents to a date in the past. This limitation negatively impacts our approach to managing monthly recurrence tasks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It saves alot of time. By havning one tool to manage several diffrent complianve standards we get alot of "2 birds with one stone" situations.
User friendly, compliance automation
What do you like best about the product?
Support - Vanta provides support from day one either by way of well written, clear support articles, or live support through voice, email or chat. They do a great job at trying to keep teams on track by sending timly reminders and prompts for outstanding tasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
At times clearer guidence could be given about controls in place and what is truly required. Vanta offers a lot of great recomendations and best practices, but they should be clear as to what specifically is required for SOC for instance vs their recomendation to avoid potentially getting bogged down on an ifeam that is not a true requirement. That said, they recomendations truly are good recomendations and should be cnosidered.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta is streamlining and audomating our pursuit of SOC compliance and continious compiance monitoring.
Best platform - best service
What do you like best about the product?
The service level of Vanta's competent staff is extraordinary. Fast, professional, and friendly. Implementation was easy, a fantastic support and a CSM team. In addition, the platform is of a high technical level, and easy to handle.. so what more could one expect?
What do you dislike about the product?
A full year has now passed since the start of using Vanta and receiving our certificate. I can still not see any disadvantages.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta makes ISO-handling an easy feat, and helps us show it to our clients.
