Compliance made easy
What do you like best about the product?
The platform is easy to use and allows us to be self-sufficient in ensuring we are always in compliance. Policy creation is a breeze. It is also helpful to have open lines of communication with a Vanta team member and auditors.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's expensive, but you get great value.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta allows us to prep for a SOC Type I and Type II audit and certification and helps us ensure we are always in compliance. It allows us to instill confidence in our customers.
Vanat helps a lot with SOC 2 pre-audit and audit stgaes.
What do you like best about the product?
Relatively easy to use. Even if some features are not apparent, there are a lot of instructions and valuable materials online for free. On top of that, Vanta's support team is fast and helpful. Another good point is that once you complete your first-year audit with Vanta, the pre-audit stage of every subsequent year is significantly quicker because you only need to renew the data uploaded last year.
Vanta also suggests various auditor firms that understand how Vanta works, making the audit process more manageable.

What do you dislike about the product?
I would only mention that the description of a few SOC 2 tests in Vanta is not precisely what the auditor wants to see. It is quite a minor issue because the audit will highlight it anyway, but it would be better to know the exact regulatory requirements and the context of such requirements.

What do you dislike about the product?
Some integrations require a SCIM, and that can be extra and unexpected overhead to get setup. 1password for example.
While lots of integrations are supported, not all services provided by those integrations are implemented for continous monitoring by Vanta. Sometimes it is only 'User Access' data is integrated with Vanta, while the actual features/services the platform is being used for is no where to be seen. Some examples are Crowdstrike (should also support vul management) and Bob (should also support policy acceptance)

What do you dislike about the product?
If I were to offer one suggestion for improvement, it would be to further streamline the onboarding process for new users or simpilfy the user-interface. While the platform itself is intuitive to navigate, I found that getting started initially required a bit more effort than expected. Simplifying this process could help onboard users more efficiently and ensure they can start leveraging Vanta's powerful tools as quickly as possible.

What do you dislike about the product?
There was some miscommunication initially with the auditor we worked with through Vanta and even our Vanta success rep wasn't able to get a clear response - however it ended up being resolved quickly and we were back on track quickly.
