Vanta gives you confidence in your compliance and security

  • February 01, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
My favorite thing about Vanta are all of the integrations they have with the other software in our ecosystem. It plugs in directly with AWS, Justworks, Chekr and Mosyle so I can be confident all of these are set up correctly.The dashboard gives me a great overview of any outstanding complicance items without me having to really dig in. The integrations also make implementation easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the complaince checks take some time to update so even if you've done something they won't rigger as done for a few minutes. Can make it a little confusing to make sure you've completed a task.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Making sure we are HIPAA compliant

Vanta - helping a small start-up gain SOC 2

  • February 01, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Vanta was intrusmental in helping our start up gain SOC 2 compliance. Their main tool was very intuitive and our CSM gave us many helpful bits of information to further streamline the process. I mainly worked on building out the documents and their pre-populated templates saved a ton of time. It also seems like it will be very helpful in keeping our SOC 2 renewal each year. I know our Devops teams really liked having the easy integration abilties of their various tools into Vanta
What do you dislike about the product?
Some parts of the user experience are complicated and its hard to gain all the context needed for what you need to do. As a small startup you dont always have the right people working on the right things so it was difficult to figure stuff out. We used Miria Security (recommended by Advantage partners) and that was pretty helpful to push us over the finish line.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have to gain SOC 2 for some of our existing client contracts and some of our future work that we are going after.

A good tool to streamline certification management

  • February 01, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Vanta is great at providing guidance and tools to support the process of meeting the requirements for various certification standards as well as maintaining them ongoing. Unless you have a dedicated staff to work on these standards, a tool such as Vanta is essential in making the process digestible.
What do you dislike about the product?
There aren't any major downsides the product overall - I would just cite little things. I wish there was a more straightforward way to search the platform. Search queries seem to be limited to sections and the universal searching isn't all that helpful. There also seems to have been a lot of turnover in the 2 or so years that we've been a customer making it difficult to know who our main point of contact is. Vanta does not put a lot of effort into proactive personalized communications.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta has enabled us to fulfill our goal of being ISO27001 and SOC2 compliant. Achieving this goal would have been very difficult, if not improbable, without Vanta to guide us through the process and provide us with the tools to develop our policies and procedures that support these standards. It's also great to have a platform that alerts us to the tasks we need to perform to maintain compliance with the standards.

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
This app organizes your tests and documents in a user friedly interface.
What do you dislike about the product?
The team could be more informative for portal changes. Typical of many SaaS apps, changes to look and feel happen often without notice and it can take a minute to find where things have been moved to.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SOC 2 compliance and audits

Vanta really streamlined the preparation for our security audit.

  • February 01, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Vanta provides complete direction on security audit requirements and best practices and how to stay up to date on our compliance post audit. It's a rather intuitive platform and relatively easy to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
The occasional platform glitches. Virtual support with account manager is often rushed as to not surpase the alloted 30 minutes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's assitsed our company in achieving our SOC 2 certification.

Using Vanta in a Small Startup

  • February 01, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Vanta gave us the template to go from 0 to certified. In a small startup, I was the sole person responsible for getting us certified, and with the help of the platform, we were able to get certified in about 5 months - from Day 1 to certification. Really helpful platform. Very easy to integrate all our vendors, and have tests run automatically, especially the vulnerability scanning.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it can be challenging to navigate the entire list of all controls/policies and documents, but this is a minor gripe.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta helps us keep our arms around compliance without having an entire staff/team member solely dedicated to it.
