One stop solution for certification requirements
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Vanta provides templates for all the required origanization documents. This has saved an incredible amount of time in research and document creation
What do you dislike about the product?
The platform could have a better "getting started" wizard or structure of progression. With so much to do and prepare, it can feel overwhelming to figure out a system of progress.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are being certified for ISO27001 and Vanta is solving the preperation checklist process and will also assist in the actual certification process with traing and consultation.
Greatly accelerated our SOC 2 submission
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta's automated tests made it easy to collect evidence required across our cloud infrastructure, company accounts and the software we use. I was also impressed by Vanta's automated employee onboarding flows and the Vanta agent. As a small company, this made it easy to ensure that onboarded employees followed our compliance requirements.
What do you dislike about the product?
Although many document templates were helpful, some heavily assumed a much larger company size. As a small startup, many of these templates did not apply to us and required considerable editing. It would be awesome if the templates could account for the company stage and area.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are required to be SOC 2 compliant. Vanta's software guided us through this process, and the company connected us with an auditor for the audit. The software also is also helping in tracking our compliance against PCI DSS.
Really easy and thorough way to work through compliance.
What do you like best about the product?
Love how easy it is to learn about what you have left to complete, upload proof, assign tasks to other users, and more. It's a very thorough tool for tracking compliance progress.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'd love more insight into what emails people at our company are receiving, and what they say. This is a minor complaint though.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta is helping us get up to speed for compliance audits.
Out of the box security solutions
What do you like best about the product?
Straight-forward to implement. Plenty of various cyber security packages in one place. Really like the way of using it + Monitoring is a robust part of the SaaS
What do you dislike about the product?
It might be a bit complicated initially for startups not aware of the security threats. Maybe more educational content would be great. I mean to show the risk that is not obvious at the startup.

All you need secruity solution for modern tech companies
Saved us a ton of time and money with our compliance process!
What do you like best about the product?
The platform is very easy to use and provides templates for getting started. As a small business, this was crucial to our ability to achieve compliance quickly. Using Vanta helped me ensure we were taking care of everything and their seamless audit capabilities really made choosing auditors easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
There aren't too many bad things. Their trust page option is not as feature-rich as others on the market. Also, the examples are very US-centric. As a European company, we had to do a few tweaks, although this wasn't a really big deal. Of course, the price is high, but if I add up all the time saved, it pays for itself many times over.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have no dedicated security staff as we are a small team of 10. Therefore, this has made compliance manageable! Both with time saved and knowledge provided. It does the work of at least one full-time expert person.
Effective and easy to use platform solution
What do you like best about the product?
Good portal structure, helps to proceed on the compliance processes.
Connectors to different vendors (like AWS, Azure, ...) helping a lot to automate tests.
The templates to build policies are awesome, helps a lot.
Also now there is a EU based system to it also fits to our policies.

What do you dislike about the product?
For policies, documents you can provide external artifacts like word or pdf documents.
But I prefer to not have external assets and use the internal editor as well.
The editor lacks of some standard WYSIWYG features like anchor tags, embedded image support.
The review process to approve (policies) do not allow to return with comments, or mark the content so the editor understands what to do (this has to be outside in an extra communication thread). Imho this has to be part of the process.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a startup we need to get compliant and certified with different framework (e.g., ISO 27001, SOC 2). Vanta helps us in a big way to reduce time and support with a lot of content.
Also, that external auditors can access if a great feature. Customers can use trust center so we have very little work on exchange compliance information with customers.

A great help for small businesses on their journey to compliance.
What do you like best about the product?
Account discovery, automated control checks and numerous integrations all help Vanta stand out. I like that Vanta policy templates are written to satisfy requirements from multiple compliance frameworks, making future improvements to our program easy to work towards! Features are continuously added and improved upon.
What do you dislike about the product?
It seems that Vanta is optimized for big customers and, while sufficient, the support available for small business administrators making their first steps into a compliance program isn't as comprehensive as it could be.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta is helping us keep track of policy acceptance, security training, SSO signins from accounts in our IdP, workstation compliance, and all the yearly reviews you could think of!
Excellent customer service
What do you like best about the product?
Their customer service team's responses have been quick, polite, detailed, and a ggreat help. Their templates are easy to use. Their instructions for users are intuitive.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are times with their templates when it is hard to figure out the mapping from what we have to what needs to be there. If we start from scratch filling in the blanks it could be fine - but we certainly need lawyers to figure out what to transfer from old docs to their format.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We develop software. Our clients want assurances that that software is SOC2 compliant. Vanta gives that assurance AND greatly streamlines our process for becoming compliant. They walk us through things step by step.
Vanta helped us easily go through our SOC2 audit process at our own pace.
What do you like best about the product?
The following made things much faster and easier:
- A lot of automation and alerting
- Examples of documentation
- Very clear Instructions of how to remediate issues
- Slack customer support to get us through the issues.
