Really simplifying solution for compliance monitoring
What do you like best about the product?
We are using Vanta to automate security compliances in taking SOC-2 report. As a startup company trying to get these kinds of security certificates, there were many complexities and unknown concepts for us. Vanta offers professional help with both of their dedicated personnel and dashboard. There are many elements you should comply with and Vanta simplifies them by suggesting what to-dos, alerting for deficiencies, and reminding upcoming issues.
What do you dislike about the product?
Vanta alerts for some errors that there can be nothing for us to do, and these are also not important for our auditors. So maybe some monitors could be customizable at a more granular level.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
There is little knowledge about the SOC-2 compliance elements that should be done. For each monitoring component, Vanta suggests what should/could be done on the dashboard. Moreover, you can ask anything related to the process to the dedicated personnel periodically.

Automating documentation and monitoring

Not all auditors know it or use it, so you need to be working with an auditor that is familiar with Vanta.

Helpful tool for SOC2 Testing

What do you dislike about the product?
We have had some issues when we terminate an employee with the offboarding. We've had to completely delete a terminated employee's account in order for them to show as terminated versus revoking access and keeping the account in the event there is data that is needed in the account.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using Vanta to assist with our SOC2 audit. It was really helpful that Vanta connects you with auditors that fit your needs. They also have an area that has policies that you can use as a starting point for your own policies, which has been extremely helpful.

The best tool to go through security audits
What do you like best about the product?
Automations and immediate reactions if something goes wrong with a company set up regarding privacy and security. In addition, it helps companies to speed up the security audit processes.
What do you dislike about the product?
The quality of built-in security and HIPAA training could be better, since auditors usually request to see the chapters and topics of those training, but Vanta provides video only.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We solve the security and privacy compliance. Vanta helps us not to spend many hours checking if the company complies with all the requirements and makes security officer life much easier.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just give it a try, and you'll get the evidence that life without Vanta could be a nightmare for the security team.
Simplifies something incredibly complex
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta has an intuitive and well-designed interface that makes it very easy to see all of the different areas of my business that need to be monitored for Soc 2 compliance. They automatically generate to-do task lists that make a huge process digestible. The platform connects to a ton of different services I already use, making otherwise manual tasks automatic.
What do you dislike about the product?
Vanta errs on the side of caution in terms of what needs to be monitored for compliance, and prompts you to setup reporting or documentation for areas that many auditors will not look at or need.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We work with large enterprise customers that have rigorous information security standards. Accordingly, we need to retain Soc-2 certification, and Vanta makes this as simple as possible.
