Vanta makes compliance more efficient and accurate by many orders of magnitude.
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta is really good at its core functionalities: 24/7 monitoring, straightforward suggestions on remediations, and historical documentation for use by compliance auditors. I genuinely believe that it is much easier to achieve compliance using Vanta. We use Vanta daily.
What do you dislike about the product?
I can not think of anything that I dislike about Vanta.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta has helped our company become SOC 2 Type II compliant for the past two years. By incorporating Vanta into our onboarding, offboarding, monitoring, and testing, our systems aren't just compliant but also much better secured.
Big fans of Vanta!
What do you like best about the product?
We use Vanta for data security and SOC 2 compliance. We love the user-friendly interface.
What do you dislike about the product?
Honestly, not much. It took a little while to get used to the updated design, but it's great.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SOC 2 compliance, certification and ongoing audits.
Check out the User Access Reviews Automation
What do you like best about the product?
Right now, it is the new automation for user access reviews!
What do you dislike about the product?
In this new capability, it would be nice to have page PREV and NEXT at the top and bottom of each page.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The user access reviews went from very large spreadsheets, with 20+tabs, for numerous departments and managers to review; down to a click of the mouse for a small sub-set of users that need reveiwing. We went from weeks to 3 steps. Collect users; use automation to identify reviews needed; ask for reviews of a subset of information from specific reviewers. We can run a review in 15 minutes for an application or all applications being utilized in our environment. This enables us to utilize better than Best Practices (which is quarterly reviews) ; because we can run a review anytime in about 15 minutes to send only relevant review requests to the reviewers.
Vantastic!
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta provides a complete and in-depth view of systems and artifacts needed for easily attaining and maintaining security and other industry-specific certifications.
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface doesn't allow for easy navigation. I find that I have to sift through menus and am not always sure where I am or where to go if I need to resolve an issue.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta provides the guidance needed to fulfill the requirements for a smooth certification audit. I didn't have to pay someone to figure out what to monitor, how to monitor it, and the criteria to meet the standards required for certification.
Great Platform
What do you like best about the product?
Platform and integrations, also the policy maker.
What do you dislike about the product?
The priority list isn't very helpful, it misses quite a few things I need to work on.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta guides me through the compliance process, and I don't need to have any special education.
Compliance made easy
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta is super easy to use. We used a different compliance software for several years before switching to Vanta, and wish we would have made it sooner - the user-friendliness of the platform is leagues above.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some components, particularly related to HR, that are automated, and there are not manual overrides (like for off-boarding an employee if the HR software hasn't "exited" them yet). It would be great if there was a way to manually update some items.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're a small team, so we do not have one employee dedicated to security and compliance. Vanta takes all of the guess-work out of it, allowing our team to manage compliance, even with limited human resources.
Vanta makes SOC2 readiness a breeze.
What do you like best about the product?
The two best things about Vanta are the policy templates and the integrations. The policy templates allowed us to jump-start our readiness program, and the breadth of integrations made onboarding a breeze.
What do you dislike about the product?
The Vanta agent for monitoring end-user computers leaves something to be desired. I'd suggest using a proper MDM solution (Jamf, etc) instead of the Vanta agent. It had several issues detecting hard drive encryption status with various flavors of Windows.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta made SOC2 readiness a snap. We completed our readiness program in under four weeks from starting from absolute zero; we are on track to be SOC2 Type 2 certified in under six months from signing up with Vanta. I'm not sure how else we could have achieved it that quickly with another tool.
Great SOC2 management software
What do you like best about the product?
Their platform automates a lot of the manual tasks involved in the SOC2 process. Saved us a ton of time
What do you dislike about the product?
I really don't have much to complain about but if I could choose one thing it would be more integration/automation with the auditors so it goes seamlessly
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use them to deliver our yearly SOC2 report to clients and stay compliant 24/7/365
