What do you dislike about the product?
Implementation and configuration can be fairly complex. We're a small org and ultimately hired someone to help with getting everything 100% dialed in.
They have improved some reminders and alerts about non-compliance but there is no way to flag important vs lower level alerts so signal/noise can be challenging sometimes.

What do you dislike about the product?
Many Integrations, but always one will be missing: A minor downside is the lack of integration with some applications, such as Typeform.
Learning Curve: If you are not familiar with security frameworks, then you will have a steep learning curve. For those new to it, it is advisable to work with a consultant who has prior experience with Vanta. This initial hurdle can be a bit of a challenge. However, it will take 1 month of part-time work to figure things out.

Vanta has been instrumental in establishing HIPAA compliance for our organization. By providing an efficient platform to monitor compliance levels and gather necessary evidence, it has significantly streamlined our compliance processes. The platform's intuitive design and support for various frameworks have allowed us to scale our compliance efforts effectively. With Vanta, we have clear visibility on compliance-related tasks and understand any blockers that might arise. This transparency has been beneficial in ensuring we meet HIPAA standards consistently. Additionally, while Vanta's learning curve was initially steep, the knowledge gained has made ongoing compliance management much more manageable.
Vanta makes our SOC2 compliance journey manageable
What do you like best about the product?
The security controls needed for SOC2 compliance was laid out already for us, making it easy for our company to work on the needed requirements. There's also the suggestions that they have on each of the controls, be it as a policy template or a best practice on how to implement AWS GuardDuty on your AWS environment. They also have great customer support service, really helpful and responsive. Whenever we have something that needs clarifications, the customer support is always a click away.
What do you dislike about the product?
Monitoring is sometimes unreliable or not reflecting instantly (i.e remediated vulnerabilities should not be appearing)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sales enablement, most of our client requires us to have compliance attestations/certifications. Vanta helps us streamline the process and shorten the period for us to acquire the attestations/certifications.
There's also the maturing of our security practices. As our Company grows, there's a need to maintain and improve our security posture and Vanta helps us see what are the current gaps that we can address be it in the tooling needed or policies needed to be enforced.

Vanta-- our preferred vendor for compliance

We decided to move forward with Vanta because they seemed to be the leader in the marketplace. Further, with automation, they made the administrative burden minimal, allowing us to focus on getting compliance ready faster. Vanta also continues to release new features and integrations, which has been helpful to our team!

At first we had a dedicated account manager, however, it seems that Vanta has transitioned away from this model.

Worth every penny

The user interface is continuously evolving so it can sometimes be difficult to find what you're looking for.

Compliance is complex and sprawling. Vanta allows us to connect all of our disparate services and quickly see what we need to adjust to be compliant.
Great fit for a small team
What do you like best about the product?
The controls are your actual controls for your audit, and are tied directly to the tests and documents required to do the audit. The device management is simple and exteremely easy to get onto your teams devices.
Overall, an excellent tool for real time verification that you are on track to pass your annual audit.

Removing an existing integration isn't intuitive (and dangerous for your audit!), and sometimes my direct customer success contact can be hard to get a hold of for support.

What do you dislike about the product?
- Cost of add-ons per framework or standard
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We had a requirement to become SOC 2 certified in a short period of time and working with a consultancy to help build the framework controls that met our business needs and requirements which then fed into Vanta was a good experience. That's not to say that you couldn't do this yourself, but having someone to help guide you through the process was certainly a value add.
Vanta really helped us be compliant
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta made it super easy to take us from 0 to SOC2 Type 2 in a small tech startup of 30 people.
Their security policy templates were a very good starting point for our business type (unlike other document templates we've seen before, which were obviously for companies with very different products or in different stages).
They provided a lot of support and patiently answered all of our questions.

What do you dislike about the product?
I'm a bit afraid of the lock-in long term. So far we're happy with the platform and the team, but I imagine that changing a vendor in the future might be prohibitively hard.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It continuously monitors our compliance with security policies, making audits a breeze.
Vanta review
What do you like best about the product?
It helps to stay on top of things daily while taking care of security and privacy rules and prepare for audits
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it refreshes tests slowly and some completed tasks may still show as opened for some period of time, but it's not critical at all, usually everything get resolving during a day or so
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It may look confusing when you just start a business which has to go through the security compliance, byt Vanta makes it much easier by splitting all the activities into several buckets and it's easy to follow once you're properly set up. Also, working with policies and regular tasks/reviews + trainings is much easier with Vanta and its reminders.
