More intuitive than competitors I've used
What do you like best about the product?
We were using a competitor before but never really did understand how to use it properly. Vanta is much more intoitive and claear in how to use it.
What do you dislike about the product?
For a pre-revenue startup it is a bit expensive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're enterprise SaaS, so we need to be SOC2 and GDPR compliant, Vanta is helping with getting the nessesary policies and security measures in place.
Vanta for SOC2 Type II
What do you like best about the product?
The inbuilt templates are very helpful and provide an excellent framework for policies etc and having a dedicated account manager is great.
What do you dislike about the product?
You can get a little overwhelmed with all the requirements, however this is where having a experienced accont maager is very useful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Clients are demanding more and more around secuirty and compliance. We sell a SaaS product to public sector and large commercial clients so need to show compliance with industry standards such as SOC2 Type II.
Focus and Guidance
What do you like best about the product?
The process and links are all in the one spot. The tool has been set up to streamline the entire process. The support team are great and regularly track and prompt as needed.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not a dislike but something useful would be to enable an email follow up directly from within the solution to an external party.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The solution has enabled us to renew our ISO27001 accreditation (self assessed) and given us a clear image of what full accreditation will look like
Great framework for swift certifications
What do you like best about the product?
Great support and all assets in place to get going. Integrations and automated complinace checks.
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI is well-structured but takes some time to learn. Document management could be smarter, e.g time consuming to make updates across several files.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Needed a tool to do a certification in a short time frame and without using external consultants.
Vanta was foundational to our HIPAA compliance
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta connects to all your different vendors (HR, payroll, background checks) to give you a more complete picture of your compliance than just your cloud security posture.
What do you dislike about the product?
It was difficult to provision an external auditor's access.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
When you're a small startup - its much easier for our technical team to check the tasks in Vanta to adhere to best practices in security than to hire full/part time resources with the same level of knowledge.
Excellent guided SOC2 application
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta is so well organized, it made it easy for myself and my team to apply for SOC2 compliance. We were able to assign different policies, documents, tests, and controls to those in charge, or with knowledge of, each task for the audit.
What do you dislike about the product?
Vanta was a bit confusing at first, perhaps because it was so new to me
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta put getting SOC2 compliance within reach for us
Very helpfull team simplified SOCII andwas affordable!!!
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta integrates with all my important business systems, making the audit and review process a passive (monitor it) task. No more gathering documentation constantly for the audit.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the tests can be a bit overkill for a small business. Thankfully, you can set them to N\A.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a very small business, I really do not have time to do an audit. Vanta cut the time I needed to focus on audit and audit prep down by about 90%.
Great for automating compliance
What do you like best about the product?
It takes the guesswork out of figuring out what compliance items need to be worked on and the status of each item. It makes staying compliant easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes, it throws off incorrect failing tests, it is not always easy to understand why a test is failing, and resolution descriptions of some tests are not clear.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Vanta for SOC 2 and GDPR compliance. It keeps track of the compliance status of all necessary items, and if something starts to fall out of compliance, we are notified so that we can quickly address it to get back into compliance.
Helps you to organize and finish your ISMS process.
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta stands out for its well-organized frameworks and the ease with which it integrates various tools we're already using, which significantly streamlines our workflow. The use of templates has been particularly beneficial, providing a solid foundation for us to build upon. This feature not only saves time but also helps in maintaining consistency across our processes. However, an area where Vanta could enhance its offering is by diversifying its template library to cater more specifically to different cloud providers, company sizes, and industry requirements.
What do you dislike about the product?
On the other hand, one aspect that I found could be improved is the way progress tracking is presented. The current system makes it somewhat challenging to gauge the remaining workload and accurately estimate the time to completion for the entire process. A more intuitive and detailed progress display could greatly enhance the user experience, providing clearer insights into our compliance journey's status and what lies ahead.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta has significantly reduced the complexity and time required for managing compliance, automating key tasks and integrating compliance seamlessly into our operations. This has not only decreased our workload but also allowed us to focus more on core business activities, enhancing productivity. The streamlined compliance process facilitated by Vanta offers both operational efficiency and a clearer understanding of compliance standards, proving invaluable to our organization's functionality and growth. It is not perfect, but it is a pretty good tool.
