What do you dislike about the product?
1. It can be expensive, particularly for early-stage startups or companies with very tight budgets; considering company still need to engage separate Auditors who are also familiar with Vanta.
2. The platform can be too rigid if the company has a non-standard tech stack or unique, custom security controls.
3. It doesn't connect with every tool, meaning companies using niche or custom software will still need to perform manual evidence collection.

The initial onboarding could be more guided for users unfamiliar with compliance frameworks. Some integrations require manual adjustments and more documentation. Additionally, the platform can feel a bit restrictive if your use case doesn't fit standard compliance paths.

The policy manager works well and does a good job of managing controlled documents, acknowledgements and review. The links between controls, documents and automated tests is logical and intuitive.
It's fast moving, they're thoughtfully introducing useful new features regularly.

What do you dislike about the product?
Risk manager doesn't support asymmetric risk management scales. There's no option to integrate with third party compliance tools to automate tests (unless they comes OoTB).
Permissions management is very weak, although I believe that's a problem they're actively working on.

Vanta keeps track of our security obligations and maintains the mapping between control requirements and evidence. It automates evidence collection in numerous ways and keeps track of when a refresh is due for stuff that needs to be collected manually.
Vanta: Your Smart Shortcut to Compliance, Though Not Without Its Quirks
What do you like best about the product?
What I like most about Vanta is its powerful ability to transform a difficult and complex process, like achieving SOC 2 compliance, into a clear, manageable, and largely automated workflow. The platform's excellent number of features and ease of integration into our core tech stack—from Kubernetes, User Laptops, and GitHub to our HR and device management systems—replace the soul-crushing manual work of evidence collection with continuous monitoring. This provides a single source of truth and a structured roadmap that demystifies security requirements, effectively turning a potential months-long headache into a guided sprint. The interface is also very easy to use and navigate, which helps us enforce compliance daily within our organization. Additionally, the customer support is quite helpful, and it was pretty straightforward to set up and start working with Vanta. It's this automation-powered clarity that truly sets Vanta apart and delivers the most value. We use it daily for enforcing compliance in our organisation.
What do you dislike about the product?
What I dislike most is the platform's inherent rigidity when dealing with anything outside its well-defined, automated paths. Vanta is highly prescriptive and works best with a modern, standardised tech stack. If your company uses legacy systems, homegrown tools, or services without a native integration, the experience becomes significantly more clunky. You are forced to fall back on manual evidence uploads and frequently have to explain away "false positive" failures from automated checks that don't understand your unique setup. This creates a noticeable friction point where the seamless automation breaks down, introducing a layer of administrative noise and manual work that detracts from the otherwise elegant experience.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta is primarily solving the immense challenge of achieving and maintaining security compliance, specifically SOC 2. Before Vanta, this meant a daunting, manual process involving endless spreadsheets, chasing down evidence, writing policies from scratch, and coordinating constantly with auditors. It was a massive drain on our engineering and operations teams.

Why Vanta Works So Well for Our Compliance Needs
What do you like best about the product?
I’m very satisfied with Vanta overall. The platform is straightforward to use, and you’re well guided throughout the process. Vanta offers excellent support and is always available for any questions that come up. I also really appreciate the additional resources provided, such as training materials and onboarding processes — they’re very well done and helpful.
What do you dislike about the product?
One minor suggestion for improvement would be better support for multi-language companies. Currently, policies created in different languages can only be reviewed one after another, rather than being compared side by side. It’s a small detail, but enhancing this could further streamline the process for international teams.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Main Goal was to archive the ISO27001 certification. Therefor we needed an ISMS.
