The fast path to compliance
What do you like best about the product?
If you are new to compliance and want to fast-track your startup into it, vanta is the right tool for you. Guided by a quickstart workflow wizard, you will quickly setup all documents, risk management, vendor management, cloud monitoring and security stuff you need. No other solution has as many integrations with your already existing software ecosystem as vanta.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's still difficult to transition from another solution if you already are compliant to a framework. Integrations to open source solutions, on prem hardware and some other stuff is sorely missing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Streamline the tedious compliance assertion process and make it continuous

Intelligent, cohesive and user-friendly compliance platform
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta is an excellent compliance platform - easy to use, very intuitive, and fully equipped for audit preparation. I have no previous experience in compliance and I found the amount of work overwhelming, especially for a SME SaaS company, but Vanta literally made my life easier! I absolutely love the pre-built policy templates, the automated tests and the clear and detailed guidance for submitting evidence. The variety of integrations also allows to connect tools that can then be monitored automatically. It is a tool that facilitates continuity in compliance work without losing track of the implemented and pending items. I also love how Vanta incentives progress tracking with percentages. It is such a small detail but to me makes all the difference. Lastly, whenever I need extra support I find very detailed and well-structured resources in Vanta's Help Center, and when I had to reach out to their customer support team, they answer in light speed and solve effectively any issues within the same day at the latest. That's something you don't see in many SaaS platforms.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only major gap I've found in the last 4 months of intensive use, is that it's not possible to support multiple integrations of the same tool. For example, we have 2 different accounts for our HRIS tool, one for each legal entity of the company, but we can only connect one of them, resulting in half of the employees missing from Vanta. The same goes for our MDM. Other than that, I find everything else working perfectly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta helps us keep track of our compliance work and improve pending security topics. It helps monitor employee compliance with internal policies and security practices and offers a centralized solution for all evidence that needs to be submitted ahead of a compliance audit.
Compliance made easier
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use and user experience, support from the Vanta team
What do you dislike about the product?
Pricing is a little steep for early stage startups
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We used Vanta to streamline our SOC 2 compliance process. It helped automate evidence collection, manage security controls, and centralize documentation - things that would’ve taken much more time and effort to handle manually. The integrations with tools like GitHub, Google Workspace, and AWS made it easy to continuously monitor our environment and flag issues early. It also made working with our auditor smoother, since everything they needed was already organized and accessible in Vanta.
Streamlining Security Certifications with Some Growing Pains
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta offers excellent ease of use and management for all compliance projects, which is a significant improvement over previous methods that were complicated and difficult to navigate. The platform streamlines what was once a cumbersome process, making compliance more accessible even for those without specialized expertise.
Another standout feature is Vanta's robust control matching and automatic checks against services like Gmail and AWS. This automation significantly reduces manual verification work and provides more reliable oversight of your compliance posture across your technology stack.

What do you dislike about the product?
he vulnerability management functionality is challenging to use effectively. Specifically, there are difficulties in managing exclusions and tracking remediation efforts. The system doesn't provide intuitive ways to prioritize vulnerabilities, which can make security management more time-consuming than necessary.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Evidence Collection Automation: Before Vanta, gathering evidence for compliance audits was a manual, labor-intensive process requiring coordination across multiple teams. Vanta automatically collects and organizes evidence from connected systems (AWS, Gmail, etc.), reducing what used to take weeks down to hours or days.
Continuous Compliance Monitoring: Rather than treating compliance as a periodic "sprint" before audits, Vanta provides real-time visibility into compliance status. This shift from point-in-time to continuous monitoring means we catch issues early before they become audit findings.
Control Implementation Guidance: Vanta demystifies complex compliance frameworks by translating abstract requirements into concrete, actionable steps. Their guided approach helps implement controls correctly the first time, eliminating costly rework.
Cross-Framework Efficiency: Managing multiple compliance frameworks (SOC 2, ISO 27001, etc.) used to mean duplicating effort across overlapping controls. Vanta maps these relationships, allowing us to satisfy multiple requirements with single implementations.

Great tool but slow
What do you like best about the product?
What I like best about Vanta is how it automates much of the compliance process, especially for frameworks like SOC 2, ISO 27001, and HIPAA. It continuously monitors systems, alerts you to issues in real time, and integrates with tools like AWS, GitHub, and Google Workspace, which saves a ton of manual work. It also makes working with auditors much smoother by centralizing evidence collection and documentation.
What do you dislike about the product?
One downside of Vanta is that some of the integrations can be a bit rigid or limited, especially when dealing with more complex or custom environments. There can also be a bit of a learning curve at first, particularly if your team is new to compliance workflows. And while automation is a big strength, it still requires some manual oversight to ensure everything stays aligned with real-world processes. Anoth downside is that the web application is slow.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta is solving the problem of how time consuming and complex it can be to achieve and maintain security compliance. Before using it, gathering evidence for audits, tracking policies, and ensuring ongoing security controls were all manual and scattered. Vanta centralizes and automates those tasks, which saves a significant amount of time and reduces the risk of missing something important. It also helps us stay audit ready year round, rather than scrambling at the last minute.
