Compliance Controls Require Automation
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta automates compliance across disparate applications and collaboration tools to ensure that organizations pass their compliance audits. The interface is fairly simple to use both for organizations and for their auditors.
What do you dislike about the product?
Vanta is priced somewhat higher than some of its competitors and integration can be challenging for an organization's home grown proprietary applications and tools.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Within an organization using numerous applications and collaboration tools, Vanta is providing a one stop solution to provide governance and meet audit requirements.
Great Team and Product - Still Lots of Work
What do you like best about the product?
The system itself (and software, for that matter) provides a great framework for preparation in compliance. Between policy examples, sample documents and guidelines, and multiple checklists - Vanta has developed one dashboard to greatly speed up the process.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's still a lot of work in order to receive the compliance you likely desire. This is not a done-for-you type of product, and still requires a tremendous amount of legwork to still get to the finish line.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta shows us exactly what needs to get done or completed in order to be found within the compliance frameworks (which, for us is SOC2 and HIPAA). It's easy to see what needs to be added/taken away/enforced with Vanta.
Great product and service but confusing UX/UI
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta is a great service for organizing and applying for a wide range of certifications. Since there is a lot of overlap in certifications, hosting it in one place is great to reduce overlap of work.
What do you dislike about the product?
Vanta's UX/UI is not particularly intuitive. The educational/onboarding materials are similarly confusing and for early-stage teams this process can be quite confusing at times. Particularly when navigating the platform and trying to figure out which cohesive steps to take.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta is helping us to get several of our compliances up and running which will allow us to ensure that we are the best version of the company we can be and can interact with a wide range of clients.
They offer a product that makes compliance easy and straightforward.
What do you like best about the product?
Their customer onboarding experience and support makes it worth it. The ability to ask questions anytime is huge.
What do you dislike about the product?
They could be more clear about what needed to be done to be ready for a SOC 2 type 1 audit and compliance. What I was told from Vanta was different from the auditor.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SOC 2 and HIPAA compliance.
Amazing Automation
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta is very useful for automating the compliance process. Compliance can be very difficult to keep track of and keep in order and Vanta keeps it all organized so that the auditor and client understand what is going on.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes they implement new features that may help the client out but can make things a little more difficult for the auditor
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta makes it easier for the auditor to deliver a report to the client so timing. It also benefits me because it allows for a streamlined audit process
Helpful central organization and management of security standards
What do you like best about the product?
I most appreciate the supporting resources that are available directly with each requirement (e.g., templates, samples, and external references). We have also had a pretty good experience with our account rep and with customer support. Finally, the partner program Vanta has with auditors and that our audit happens directly in Vanta. Also, all the past "things I dislike" were missing features at that time... that now Vanta has added. So I appreciate that they really listen to client requests/needs.
What do you dislike about the product?
We're getting priced out of Vanta over time. We're only in our second year using it, but when every new feature/functionality costs thousands more dollars, I have a hard time justifying the cost.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are a small tech startup that does not have anyone on staff or even an MSP for security or IT. A few of us without much experience in security are collaborating to get us compliant with standards that will help us with business development. Vanta is making that possible. We could not do it without a tool like this.

The dashboard is a bit non-intuitive and can be confusing to understand what you are looking at

Recommendations to others considering the product:
PS for onboarding services
Useful for tracking, but gaps and some busy-work
What do you like best about the product?
It is useful to have one source for tracking and monitoring security risks and processes. Some of the integrations are helpful and have eliminated some administrative work.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is sometimes difficult to understand when an SLA will be violated. In some versions of the UI, deep-linking to specific tests or remediation instructions hasn't worked. Vanta also produces a lot of work to redress trivial risks, but failed to detect some important risks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using Vanta to deliver a secure software product and track our progress towards a security certification. Vanta has eliminated some administrative work, and identified some risks that other tools and processes did not.
Great, not perfect
What do you like best about the product?
The simplicity of the entire service is the best portion and how many things it can plug n play into
What do you dislike about the product?
I'm always worried that it's still not enough coverage of things, and wish it had more insight into things like security software
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SOC2 Audit/HIPAA
Realizing how much of SOC2 is just evidence collection

Solid Platform, Could Use More Guidance
What do you like best about the product?
Having all of your compliance needs in a single platform is immensely helpful to smaller companies looking to obtain compliance certificaitons.
What do you dislike about the product?
Lack of guidance and direction on what is important, what needs to be done first and foremost, etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Help guide our compliance audits for SOC 2. The benefits we saw came from having everything in one place.
