Let's you easily get compliant
What do you like best about the product?
We needed to become SOC 2 compliant and improve our security posture in general. Vanta came highly recommended so we went with them. While the SOC 2 process can be tough, Vanta made it as easy as possible. Our auditors (and from what I've heard, all auditors) were very familiar with Vanta and used it to store all our evidence. They also have tools that help with general monitoring and security. They're also constantly pushing updates and releasing new product lines that we could use sometime in the future.
What do you dislike about the product?
Wish there was more hand holding at the beginning, we were a bit unfamiliar with the SOC 2 process
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed to become SOC 2 compliant and achieved it through Vanta.

Greatly simplifies the path to SOC 2 compliance.
What do you like best about the product?
Comprehensive set of controls for SOC2 with almost all of the integrations needed for automated compliance checking already built in, plus a great support team when you have questions.
What do you dislike about the product?
Needs a more centralized task management flow to help clear flags from the main task page instead of having to dive into the specific category.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta allowed us to get to and through our first SOC 2 audit with no hiccups at all. The controls available in Vanta enabled us to consider SOC 2 six months to a year earlier than we otherwise would have approached it, and allowed us to do so with minimal technical resources dedicated to the audit itself.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The earlier you can justify implementing Vanta, the easier it will be to start and complete your SOC 2 audit.
Accelerated and ongoing SOC2 compliance - immediate value add!
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta provides a perfect mix between guided jumpstart, customization and ongoing management.
What do you dislike about the product?
Policies are good but could use additional options for depth of controls.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Greatly decreased the time and effort required to achieve SOC2 compliance. Perfect for growing companies with limited resources. Capabilities for IT Asset Management and Third Party Vendor Management are easy and the ongoing management piece is key.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for an efficient, functional jumpstart to your GRC program that will accelerate your process to SOC2, this is your magic bullet.
Helped us accelerate our SOC 2 compliance!
What do you like best about the product?
Makes SOC 2 about as easy as it could possibly be. Easy to set up and automates a ton of compliance work.Their team has been a pleasure to work with and the tool just keeps getting better!
What do you dislike about the product?
Wish it integrated with more of our tools and helped us manage even more compliance challenges.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a CEO, Vanta gives me peace of mind. I don't have to worry that our security team missed any little details because Vanta's constantly running in the background making sure we are on top of it. Vanta enabled us to quickly iterate towards SOC II compliance without slowing down the rest of our engineering velocity. The result has been faster sales cycles and more customers.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's an awesome way to streamline your SOC 2 compliance process as a growing startup!
Meaningfully improves security and compliance
What do you like best about the product?
Getting SOC-2 certified was a great process for us that helped us meaningfully improve our security and our operational excellence while facilitating customer security reviews. Vanta made the process of defining, achieving, and certifying SOC-2 compliance a breeze by pulling in metadata from various systems and giving us a clear dashboard for our security and compliance work. It's also helped us generate detailed reports to share with security-conscious customers. And their strong relationships with auditors made it easy to pick a great auditing firm to work with.
What do you dislike about the product?
Vanta changes fast, and so occasionally we've had to re-build our internal workflows as the tool changes - but it's price we're happy to pay for consistent progress and innovation that makes our overall security posture stronger.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
* SOC-2 compliance
* Improved monitoring and alerting around security issues or deviations

- Product is evolving quickly
What do you dislike about the product?
- You're unable to 100% cover/monitor all things that are required to be SOC 2 compliant. That being said - it gets your further than doing it on your own or managing it manually outside of a system like Vanta.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps you organize yourself in order to become SOC 2 Type I compliant, then helps you maintain your compliance in order to achieve SOC 2 Type II compliance.
An excellent way to manage your SOC2 compliance and audit
What do you like best about the product?
This is a no-nonsense product. Gives you a target list, priorities and reminds you to get stuff done. If you are contemplating a SOC2 audit there is no better place to start than Vanta.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it isn't clear what the scope of your audit is. Vanta could do a better job helping define the scope. I suspect this will come with time. Also the vulnerability tracking and reporting is less sophisticated than we would like.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It manages our SOC2 audit, compliance monitoring and keeps us moving/on track.
Good product in process of becoming great; great customer success

Additionally, the platform provides an easy way to understand where gaps are in your security, as well as prepare you for SOC2 compliance.
What do you dislike about the product?
This isn't something that Vanta can control, but the ever changing landscape of security and privacy can be tough to keep up with.

We are able to quickly onboard new resources and keep our assets (equipment) and resources compliant.
SOC 2 / Compliance made easy
What do you like best about the product?
Made the SOC 2 process manageable - gave us a clear checklist of what to do, and had ongoing monitoring to make sure we stay compliant. Was equivalent to having an expert guiding us through the process.
What do you dislike about the product?
N/a- the platform was lights above anything else we found. Main areas for improvements going forward are adding integrations as they continue to build on the platform, and supporting other security types (e.g. ISO 27001)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SOC 2 and general security compliance. Got certified far faster than we thought possible with no issues.
