Vanta has improved greatly over the time that we've been using it!
What do you like best about the product?
The team. They are all extremely helpful, friendly, and knowlegeable. Everyone gets back to questions surprisingly fast.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some elements of the UI are less polished than some of the competitors we looked at. The policy editor and tracking of changes have been improved, but could still use a bit more attention, and more training options would be great (anti-phishing, password management, things like that).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are approaching our first SOC2 audit, having a platform like Vanta helps us know what needs to be done, collect evidence in an efficient manner, and ensure that we meet all of the requirements without a high level of effort.

Easiest way to get SOC 2 Compliance
What do you like best about the product?
Straightforward with exactly what we need to do and has built in monitoring tools to automate as much of the work as possible. We've evaluated many tools up until now and this has been superior to every other one.
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI is definitely a bit confusing to set up many of the simple features. Not a big fan of how many things are cramped into the settings bar. However, functionally it does everything.

SOC2 Compliance & HIPAA Compliance
Vanta was a crucial partner that helped us attain a new level in compliance
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta's checklists, cloud connections, and existing relationships and tools for auditors have been extremely valuable in helping us work towards SOC-2 compliance.
What do you dislike about the product?
The price is maybe a little bit high, but was definitely the best option for us.
One thing that would be nice is a more supported way for users to opt-out of the Vanta agent tracking. My company has several privacy-minded users that (reasonably) do not want to install tracking software on their machines. Vanta and the auditors support manually taking screenshots and uploading them periodically, but I have to manage this process by hand when it should be possible to automate it over email to the users.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Achieving and monitoring SOC 2 compliance, HIPAA compliance
Saved a lot of time and auditor costs
What do you like best about the product?
It's was very easy to get set up and get started. It's was mostly intuitive to figure out what needed to be configured. The guides that tell you how to fix the errors were great to put into tickets and give to the Devops team. Auditors felt very comfortable getting things done without a lot of back and forth.
They have recently added PCI compliance, so we will be able to use them for multiple types of compliance further reducing our auditing costs and time sink.

What do you dislike about the product?
Some things like alerts and employee onboarding and offboarding we're not entirely complete when we started using the product, they were added shortly after and since their recent funding round I see more improvements.
Some newer services on aws weren't detected immediately due to some configuration on out side and some on Vantas. But support was quick to help and fix.

Lifesaver for SOC2 compliance
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta automatically created a working list of where to focus our attention to become SOC2 compliant. Without Vanta, we would not have been able to get SOC2 compliant in such a short amount of time. Our monthly check-ins were espcially helpful to make sure we had all the things we needed to become compliant. They lined us up with auditors and penetration testers and really set us up for success. If you need some type of compliance, I would absolutely check Vanta out!
What do you dislike about the product?
The dashboard has since changed, but at first, I couldn't easily find the `needs attention` tasks. However, the new dashboard is great and has the filtering right at the top!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SOC2 Compliance. The list of things to prioritize and work on was invaluable since we had no idea what was required and what wasn't. Also, we get the weekly email about things we need to keep an eye on in order to keep our company in a complaint state along the way.
