Centralised Policy and Compliance Management
What do you like best about the product?
There are multiple great things about using Vanta.
1. If there is a problem, it suggests a solution in easy-to-understand language. This is very helpful for delegating tasks to other team members who may not be very familiar with compliance.
2. Vanta shows our progress on compliance requirements such as SOC 2, GDPR, and ISO, which helps us track where we stand and how much more effort we need to invest.
3. While these may seem like small details, they are quite useful. Vanta categorizes tasks for HR, Engineering, IT, and other departments, which is extremely helpful for breaking down responsibilities.
Overall, Vanta is an excellent platform for streamlining compliance management, making it easier for organizations to navigate the complexities of regulatory requirements. Highly recommended!

What do you dislike about the product?
1. I believe that the onboarding process for new users is quite overwhelming when trying to understand Vanta. This aspect should be improved.
2. The navigation between different tasks and categories needs enhancement, particularly in terms of accessibility. For instance, when I navigate to a different page, I often find it difficult to return because there is no clear navigation system, and it does not indicate my current location.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta shows me what security problems we have. Many times we were unaware about things that Vanta shows which resulted in learning new things. For example, Vanta shows to add alarms on our AWS resources (SQS) which we never thought of adding it. This helped us in many ways.
We improved security posture for our identity management and implemented certain policies which helped us a lot.

CPO
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta makes it easy to automatically monitor my Soc 2 compliance. I get alerts/checklists for things that require action so I don't have to remember myself to go check where we stand. I also like that it handles new employee onboarding automatically (security training, policy agreements, etc.).
What do you dislike about the product?
It's not the simplest UI to navigate. There are many times where it flags an item that needs action (e.g. assigning an owner to an AWS asset) but the page where that alert is doesn't actually link to the asset in Vanta for me to go take action. So then I need to waste 5 minutes searching around to find the asset.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
They are making it very easy to keep my company compliant with Soc 2 Type II standards.

Made security and compliance easy and perversely enjoyable
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta made it super easy to draft policies, continuously monitor our systems, and track compliance tasks across our entire organization. I had no prior experience with SOC 2 or ISO 27001, and getting our first Type II attenuation and going through our ISO surveillance audit were much easier than I expected.
What do you dislike about the product?
Very few downsides. Deeper integration with ticketing systems like Linear would be nice, e.g., automatic creation of new ticket when Vanta detects an issue requiring action.

Streamlines Compliance, Perfect for Startups
What do you like best about the product?
I have really appreciated how Vanta has made setting up and managing compliance straightforward for our small team of employees, despite lacking a dedicated compliance department. The setup process out of the box is incredibly user-friendly and adaptable to any organization, providing a significant advantage in getting 95% of the way towards compliance effortlessly. Vanta's tool allows us to manage compliance efficiently without requiring a chief compliance officer or an in-house legal team, which is cost-effective and vital for a small startup like ours. It's streamlined our processes, saving us time and creating greater efficiencies in handling compliance-related tasks, which are often arduous when done manually. We've also benefited from the streamlined security review and access request processes, which are well-developed and assist in tracking system access within the company. Furthermore, Vanta's value per dollar is outstanding, as it effectively eliminates the need for an entire compliance department, making it an incredible and integral tool for us. The customer service is timely and responsive, with a willingness to jump on calls to solve problems, and they make sure to provide options and discounts, which I find honest and straightforward. Overall, Vanta not only stands out as the best compliance tool I've used but also comes highly recommended by our leadership team.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would probably change the initial onboarding and maybe funnel customers into a more directed onboarding based on their industry. Determining who has access to what is a very tricky area, and there's room for improvement in the access section to make it clearer. Also, the use of integrations and its expansion is a topic Vanta understands, but there's always room for more.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Vanta to manage compliance efficiently with a small team, eliminating the need for a dedicated compliance department. It streamlines complex tasks, like security reviews, saving time and boosting efficiency without manual errors.
Makes a somewhat painful process straightforward
What do you like best about the product?
Doing our complicance without Vanta would have been a nightmare, and I'm sure we would have missed things.
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI doesn't always immediately update so it can be a bit confusing whether you've checked something off or not.
