Overall solid compliance platform
What do you like best about the product?
Automated compliance tracking + inbuilt software
What do you dislike about the product?
Some integrations (Checkr, GCP) don't function as intended
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Soc 2 Type 2 audit + ongoing compliance tracking
Continuous monitoring all the way!
What do you like best about the product?
Drata allows companies to automate the control of what's going on internally, having these controls monitored every single second rather than just seeing pictures of this over time is the most helpful thing ever for people and companies that care about their compliance.
What do you dislike about the product?
Ohh, if you could complete the endless security questionnaires that come to our emails it would be so good :)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Automated compliance controls for achieving SOC2. It should be awesome to see how we compare to all the other standards, but I guess we'll check it over time
Pretty unintrusive agent
What do you like best about the product?
My computer performs the same with the Drata agent as it does without it. That's not something you get from many endpoint software. Granted Drata itself mostly checks for configuration things and doesn't, for example, do virus scanning on its own, but still.
And it's cross platform and supports all the different kinds of computers we have in our organizatino.

What do you dislike about the product?
Haven't found anything deal-breaking so far. But the endpoint software isn't open source, which makes it harder to reason about how safe it is to install. Or to verify that it only does what it says it does. They have a GitHub "repo" that hosts the releases https://github.com/drata/agent-releases but not the source. That just seems kind of an oblique use of GitHub. Eh.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're using it to verify that certain computer configurations are in place, e.g. disk encryption is enabled. These vary from computer to computer because different people at our organization use different operating systems.
Easy to use, great security compliance platform with good support
What do you like best about the product?
You can always ask questions to your account manager and even online expert chat. They will get back to you quickly. The system is designed for self-service, and it does make the SOC2 compliance process a lot easier.
What do you dislike about the product?
Would love to see the platform has more compliance products it can support besides SOC2, ISO, and PCI.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SOC2 compliance is long. complex, and time-consuming process. Drata, it makes the whole process a lot easier. There are policy templates you can easily adjust, and the control dashboard for easy monitoring of the process.
A good buying experience
What do you like best about the product?
They set very realistic expectations about how long it takes to implement & achieve SOC2 during the sales process.
What do you dislike about the product?
Their auditor view wasn't great when we bought. Since then they've improved it but it still added time to our audit.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Wanted an automated solution for SOC2 monitoring. They definitely made it easier, there are still a lot of manual steps though and that's unavoidable despite the tools you use.
Excellent integrations
What do you like best about the product?
Integrations have been easy to implement and drastically reduce workload.
What do you dislike about the product?
Unmonitored controls still require a lot of cycles to provide evidence for - more in-app forms or walkthroughs for producing evidence would improve the experience.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Time overhead for maintaining compliance is reduced, and we have a very clear picture of what we need to do to speed up future compliance assessments. Auto-generated reports to provide to potential partners have the potential to speed up sales cycles.
Streamlined process to achieve SOC2
What do you like best about the product?
Integrations with various cloud providers
What do you dislike about the product?
We can probably improve notifications/alerts a little bit more.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are trying to get a SOC2 compliant. Less hassle to provide the proof for each control.
Drata review
What do you like best about the product?
I like the UI, it's very clean, nice looking, and understandable. I really like how we can use it as a unification tool for compliance, keeping all of our policies in the same location that we sign off on them is very convenient. I'm looking forward to having audits go smoother.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't love that the connection to background checks requires a lot of manual interaction. We do background checks with Checkr before hiring a candidate so its always completed before they are in the Drata system, this makes it so we have to individually status each person instead of it being detected automatically. I realize that this is probably completely a limitation of Checkr.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easy compliance auditing
Drata Review
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use and implementation, very straight forward and user friendly.
What do you dislike about the product?
Appears to be the odd sync issue across some of the employees and compliance, but it seems to be intermittent and self-correcting over time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Preparing for your SOC 2 Type 2 certification.
Easy tool, valuable support
What do you like best about the product?
The team is always available to help with support and answering questions anytime
What do you dislike about the product?
Impossible to update personnel data uploading a csv
Some minor bugs with the system
