A solid GRC platform, and smoothly intuitive
What do you like best about the product?
I was prompted to leave a review after I reported (and they promptly resolved) a minor UX bug, and the responsiveness from the Vanta team was first rate. But beyond that, it's a well-architected platform, and enjoyable to use, especially for the Trust Center we rely on for our own customer trust efforts.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do find the complexity of the left menu a bit daunting, and could do more with a little less.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta's chief values are in the Trust Center, as a source for trust truth in working with our prospects and customers, and as a platform for audits.
Keeps our risk management organized
What do you like best about the product?
It automatically tracks controls across our systems and reminds me of anything that needs attention. I don’t have to chase teams constantly, and it’s easy to see where we are strong and where we need improvement. It really makes managing enterprise risk much simpler.
What do you dislike about the product?
The workflow setup feels a little strict. If a document isn’t exactly in the expected format, I have to upload it again, which can slow things down. A bit more flexibility in uploads would help.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I was preparing for audits and tracking risk controls was chaotic and time-consuming. Now, evidence is pulled automatically from integrated systems, gaps are visible immediately, and I can respond quickly. It helps us maintain continuous compliance and gives me confidence that our enterprise risk program is running smoothly without constant firefighting.
Streamlined compliance automation that saves time and effort
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta makes the compliance process much easier by automating evidence collection, monitoring, and reporting. The integrations with tools like AWS, GitHub, and Google Workspace save a lot of manual work. The dashboard provides a clear overview of compliance status, making it simple to track progress. It’s especially helpful for SOC 2, ISO 27001, and other frameworks, reducing both audit preparation time and stress.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some integrations can be a bit tricky to set up initially, and there are occasional sync delays with certain tools. The platform is powerful, but the pricing may feel high for smaller startups. Additionally, while the dashboard is good, it could benefit from more advanced customization and analytics features
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta helps us streamline the compliance process by automating evidence collection, security monitoring, and policy management. Instead of manually tracking compliance tasks, the platform provides continuous monitoring and reminders, which saves a significant amount of time and reduces the risk of human error. It has made preparing for SOC 2 and ISO audits much faster, while also giving our team greater confidence in meeting security standards. This not only improves internal efficiency but also builds trust with our customers and partners.
Automates lots of the work.
What do you like best about the product?
It automates lots of the work required for the audit.
What do you dislike about the product?
Navigation might be the most annoying part.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Security compliance and the requirements surrounding this.
Simplifying Compliance
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta has been helpful for our company as we tried to obtain our GDPR compliance. Having mostly everything centralized in one area was really useful and made it easier. The partnership with GDPRlocal to obtain a local EU representative was also very helpful and provided us with more peace of mind knowing that the 3rd party we were partnering with had a connection with Vanta.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is a bit of a love-hate relationship with the email notifications and frequency upon which Vanta sends the reminder emails. I like that I get reminded but unfortunately I do not always have the time to attend to those emails right away and so they pile up in my inbox.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta is helping us understand and realize what we don't know about compliance and all the work that was required. Having the templates and step-by-step instructions were really beneficial and time-savers.
Great compliance partner, though simplicity has taken a step back as it's grown
What do you like best about the product?
The way it connects directly with our cloud environment and the tools we use every day. This level of integration makes it easy to keep everything in sync without a lot of manual effort. I also find the alerting system extremely valuable because it lets me know right away when something isn't working as expected or when we are drifting away from compliance requirements. Having visibility give me peace of mind, although I don't get all the information as clearly as I would like, but I deal with it, and it also helps my team address issues before they become bigger problems
What do you dislike about the product?
While the alert system is valuable, the way it presents information can sometimes be overwhelming or unclear. Certain alerts lack enough context and appear in some cases as codes, which make it harder to immediately understand the source of the issue. This can turn into extra time spent investigating and trying to allocate the affected resources. A more streamlined way of categorizing alerts and linking directly to the impacted systems would make the experience far more efficient
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta Helps me manage and maintain the controls required for the certifications my company holds, as well as for clients who also rely on Vanta. We work with frameworks like SOC 2, HITRUST, HIPPA, and the platform makes it much easier to stay organized and compliant. One of the biggest benefits is that Vanta centralizes all the controls, documentation, and related policies in on place, this allows us to track progress, maintain evidence, and ensure that everything is always audit-ready. It also streamlines communication with auditors, since they can go directly into the system to review the required documentation without back-and-forth requests, saving us significant time and effort.
Vanta makes SOC 2 and InfoSec compliance achievable and far less painful
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta has transformed the way we approach compliance by automating evidence collection, monitoring controls, and integrating seamlessly with out tech stack (Google Workspace, AWS, Slack etc). The platform saves significant time, reduces manual overhead, and gives us real-time visibility into gaps. The guided workflows, audit preparation tools, and policy templates make it easier to stay on top of SOC 2 readiness.
What do you dislike about the product?
The depth of integrations is excellent, but can be a little USA vendor focused. Reporting could also be more customisable for different audiences (board, auditor, internal teams). These are relatively minor compared to the value it delivers overall.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta is helping us streamline SOC 2 readiness and ongoing InfoSec governance by automating evidence collection, monitoring controls, and standardising policy management. Instead of manually chasing compliance tasks, the platform provides a clear dashboard view of priorities and progress, which saves our team time and reduces risk of missing critical requirements. The integrations with our existing systems ensures continuous monitoring and this has lifted our confidence when engaging auditors and enterprise clients. Ultimately, Vanta makes compliance less of a once-a-year scrabble and more of a continuous structure process that supports trust and growth.
Vanta Makes Security Work Easier
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Vanta keeps all the security checks in one place. It shows me quickly if something is safe or needs fixing. The alerts come at the right time, so I don’t miss small issues.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the dashboard feels too packed with details and it takes a while to find what I really need. A simpler view would help me focus faster.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta is helping me spot risks before they grow into bigger problems. It takes away a lot of guesswork and makes reporting simple. This saves time and helps me keep the company’s data more safe and sound.
Vanta recommendation
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta has made the process of preparing and running our ISO audit significantly easier. The platform is very intuitive, which helped us get up to speed quickly without requiring a long learning curve. We particularly value the automation features—it continuously monitors controls, collects evidence, and reduces a lot of the manual effort we previously had to deal with. The vendor management module is also a big plus for us, as it centralizes our vendor risk assessments and makes it much easier to track compliance across our supply chain.
Ease of use and ease of implementation stand out: onboarding was straightforward, the dashboards are clean and well-structured, and our team was able to start working productively in a short time. Integration with the tools we already use (e.g., cloud infrastructure and ticketing systems) was smooth, saving us time and minimizing disruption.
Customer support has also been responsive and helpful whenever we had questions, particularly around ISO audit preparation.

Customer support has also been responsive and helpful whenever we had questions, particularly around ISO audit preparation.
What do you dislike about the product?
While Vanta covers most of the core compliance needs, we sometimes find that certain features feel designed more with SOC 2 in mind, with ISO coming second. This means that some of the templates or workflows require customization on our side to fully align with ISO requirements. Additionally, the reporting capabilities could be more flexible—export options and customization are somewhat limited.
The platform offers a wide range of features, which is great, but it can feel overwhelming at first if you’re not sure which modules apply to your specific compliance journey. Finally, the pricing can feel steep for smaller SaaS companies, especially if you’re only using Vanta for one framework and vendor management.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta is helping us automate and simplify the process of maintaining ISO compliance and preparing for audits. Previously, gathering evidence and tracking controls was time-consuming and highly manual, but Vanta centralizes and automates much of that work. This saves our team significant time, reduces human error, and ensures we are always audit-ready rather than scrambling at the last minute.
It also helps us manage vendor compliance in one place. Instead of relying on spreadsheets and email, we can consistently evaluate vendor risk, request security documentation, and track responses. This improves our visibility into our supply chain and strengthens our overall security posture.
The biggest benefit is the time and resource savings—our compliance workload has dropped considerably, freeing up our team to focus on core business priorities instead of chasing evidence and vendor questionnaires. At the same time, we feel more confident that our compliance program is running smoothly and continuously.

What do you dislike about the product?
Although the customer support team has been responsive and helpful whenever I had questions or needed guidance, resolving certain issues required several back-and-forth emails. This was the case, for example, when I contacted them about a remediation policy that was not updating as expected.
