We use Vanta to manage all our compliance needs and we are more than happy
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta makes the process of achieving and maintaining compliance feel much more manageable. The platform automates a lot of the tedious tasks, like tracking employee training or monitoring security settings, which frees up time for more critical work. I really appreciate how simpler the interface is. Also, the integration capabilities are also a big plus, as it seamlessly connects with other tools we already use, like a third party MDM or pentesting platforms, making the whole process smoother and comply with a lot of checks. On top of that, their team helped us find an audit firm to obtainthe certifications; the entire process was super simple and efficient.
What do you dislike about the product?
The initial setup can be a bit overwhelming, especially for smaller teams without a dedicated compliance expert. It would be great if there were more guided walkthroughs or simpler explanations for those who are new to the compliance landscape. Also, the pricing might be a bit steep for startups or smaller companies, which could make it less accessible for everyone who could benefit from it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We helped us to get some certifications with ease.

Comprehensive, centralised collection of ISMS and related evidence.

It actually works for you as promised
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta removes the complexity required to do an ISO certification and makes it available to small teams like mine, ensuring you won't die in tons of paper and endless checking processes. The automated controls, which are connected to your apps (very easily), the tests, and the framework to control all the ISO elements are excellent. And the implementation was super easy. It keeps track of things for you; you have to log in and do your daily work (if needed).
Important plus: the support was extremely fast when I had some issues.

What do you dislike about the product?
Unclear pricing renewal: I expected a lot more clarity on the split between Vanta and the auditors. The overall price might be the same or not, but it is unclear and doesn't match the initial promises. It's still worth the money, but from an excellent product, you'd expect excellent management of administrative tasks. Something changes internally, but they failed to communicate properly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Simplified the process to get the ISO 27001 and kept track of all the work needed, bringing us from step 1 (understanding how) to being certified in less than 6 months.
They also selected the auditor for us and privately managed the payment.
It was a complete guided solution.
