Helpful tool to make compliance easy
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta's various trackers, checklists, and support team made navigating the daunting world of certifications extremely easy and allowed us to speed through preparing for the audit. Additionally, their integrations save time by automatically providing evidence for many controls, and evidence (automatic and manual) is kept in one place for auditors to access.
What do you dislike about the product?
Vanta's integrations are seamless when available, but a significant portion of our infrastructure doesn't have integrations with Vanta. This lack of integration leaves a lot of manual screenshots and uploads for quarterly reviews.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were new to the world of compliance and wanted some guidance to ensure we got it right. Vanta let us avoid hiring expensive consultants to help us with compliance and allowed us to submit, track, and maintain the evidence required for our auditors.

Making Standards easy
What do you like best about the product?
I like that each Standard is individualized and explained. Many requirements have at least templates or solid working examples of how to meet them. It took the anxiety and pressure of being brand new to several standards off our hands. We could follow the guidelines easily and get our Standard certifications quickly and efficiently. Our AM and Vanta Support are quick and concise when we have questions.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like to see a few more integration options, including being able to have some mapping options. For example, being able to map Jira priority. Also, having the ability to manage our Vendors within Vanta better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting together all the evidence tests and having a comprehensive platform for our audits to navigate easily. Honestly, this past year has made our audits smoother and more accessible. No more excels and drop boxes!
Automation and Visibility Made a Huge Impact
What do you like best about the product?
We have loved how easy implementation has been. Setting up policies, training, integrations, etc. has been so easy and not as time consuming as other platforms. We are also loving the Vanta Agent. It allows us to make sure our IT partner is doing what they say they're doing so we can pass or audit.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only dislike we have so far is importing our policies because the formatting isn't matching up. It was an easy fix, though. We also struggled with understanding groups in the platform. Once we figured out how to set up and assign them to policies/training, it made more sense.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We had a very manual process to complete our SOC audit in previous years. Vanta has automated those process, including the tracking piece so we are more prepared and can resolve issues immediately.
An excellent partner for SOC 2 Certification
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta is a very well-designed system with high-quality customer support and consulting services that helped us achieve SOC 2 certification in record time. The software is easy to use and intuitive, and everything you need to know and do is included. The integrations with other systems make the whole process much easier and transparent. For us the integration with Azure and Jira were particularly useful. Vanta's customer success team and our assigned auditors we great, supporting us and helping us to get our organization audit ready.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing to dislike, Vanta works great. Every part of the system and service is excellent.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta has helped us get certified in record time. This was essential for us because of a customer-driven requirement to be certified which was holding up cash flow. For us, certification was mission-critical, and Vanta came through for us.
Fastest and most reliable way to achieve security!
What do you like best about the product?
The Vanta UI is very user friendly, there is a wide range of integrations and the majority of tasks can be automated. Plus, we use Vanta as our policy management tool.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only downsides of using Vanta is that it is a software as a service offering, which in itself is great (!), but frequent software updates can introduce minor bugs or changes in ways of working (but also new features!).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta is our company watchdog, always on the lookout for security issues. This is especially useful for onvoarding and offboarding as we have many connected systems and vendors.
Saves Time and Simplifies Compliance
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta dashboard is a very quick and straightforward status of compliance. The product signifincantly demystifies the various security compliance requirements and gives you direction on how to address any gaps.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much to mention here other than Kaleido.io and Auth0 service integration is not supported.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta was very helpful in getting a startup team with some junior IT and DevOps resources aligned on what needed to be done and the best way to achieve compliance, allowing us to get SOC2 Type1 compliance with no exceptions noted.
Enables fast SOC2 compliance!
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta quickly helped us get our SOC2 audit report by connecting our services and employees and provided the tasks needed. For the first audit they helped us get all the policies and routines in place! Its also great for keeping track of all compliance and making sure we follow our security controls. Makes security compliance life easier =)
The CSM team has been great at following up on progress and coming with tips and trix.

What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing much. Had had some issues with the local installation of the Vanta agent on employees' computers, but got fast help from the support team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helped us get our first SOC2 Audit report. Helps us stay compliant with minimal manual input.
Solid Sales and support, with focus on own abilities and strengths
What do you like best about the product?
The support is extremely available, and the setup makes it easy to get started if you are new to compliance. There is constantly new updates being rolled out, making the experience better and more user friendly.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not sure if there are any downsides, for us the main issue is the difference in timezones, since Vanta is US based and we are EU based - but as i understand it, that is about to get better, with the launching of offices in a closer area.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta help us get in line with compliance, creates an overview of what is important and makes sure to remind us of different deadlines, so that we are constantly following up, and are not tracking things manually.
Vanta mapped our way to HIPAA compliance
What do you like best about the product?
Monitoring of our infrastructure. List of tests that need to be completed to reach compliance.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is no guidance on standards to use for specific policies. Ideally, policies would be filled out as an onboarding exercise.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Paving the way for us to reach compliance.
Easy to use - instantly provides an overview of how to get compliant with SOC II, GDPR and more.
What do you like best about the product?
Getting an overview of all the tasks you need to do to get certified can be daunting. Vanta connects to your key systems, analyses where you are right now and provides simple guides and advice on everything from policies to documents you need to put in place to get compliant. Realtime monitoring, vulnerability scans, integrations to cloud systems is just a few of the other features I think are well done with Vanta. Finally, a system that makes it easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
Would be great with even more integrations of 3rd parties. Vanta connects to a key set of vendors, but there are always multiple systems you are using which you cannot connect easily. Maybe a feature to nominate new integrations they can consider?
