User-Friendly Platform
What do you like best about the product?
I have already used different audit platforms but Vanta is quite easy to use and very user-friendly. It took me only about a couple of days to learn how to use the Vanta platform, while it took me a longer time to learn how to use the other platforms, and still, I can't find them as user-friendly as the Vanta platform. It is very easy to navigate and downloading information is quite fast.
Also, the response of the Support team is really fast and my concern was resolved immediately. Thanks!

What do you dislike about the product?
The only downside that I see generating/downloading a big file in excel format, as there is a limit in the number of rows, which I believe is also true with the other platforms.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The ease of the use of the Vanta platform helps me conduct auditing of security compliance faster.
Vanta is a great aid for small or medium-sized companies who are concerned about security
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta has helped us achieve the ISO 27001 certification by doing some of the heavy lifting involved in this security certificate: Document storage, automated tests, expiration reminders, policy templates and guidelines... Being a small-sized company, we are conscious of the resources we must dedicate to keep our ISMS in good shape, and Vanta takes away from our team a great deal of work.
What do you dislike about the product?
Vanta's Risk Management did not map efficiently with our RM procedures, so we are not using this part of the application.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
ISMS management. Helps automate and manage our ISMS processes and workflows

Maintaining a good security posture
What do you like best about the product?
Centralizing all the SOC2 controls and making them easier to grok, as well as the automated monitoring / notifications on infrastrucutre security.
Some of the more recent updates have made syncing security policies between google drive and vanta a breeze, and its much easier to edit and keep versions of them in a tool the rest of the team already knows and loves.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps to meet our SOC2 compliance needs without an additional head
A fantastic GRC tool for budding companies
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta is continually and productively improving the platform - it's a no-brainer when you look at how many controls, documents, and tests you'd have to track and maintain without this tool. You earn you money back in just people-hours alone.
It's also a great way to get some solid visibility into your integrations and access points.
The unsung benefit of Vanta is how it's simultaneously a training tool for GRC in many ways. The extensive templates, descriptions, and cross-references within a certification and cross-certifications is invaluable.

What do you dislike about the product?
It is pricey for small companies but also less expensive than other products out there.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We initially pursued Vanta as a way to organize our efforts towards a major provider certification, and ended up bundling 2 other certs.
Quick to get started, easy to use, ever growing integrations and features
What do you like best about the product?
Automated compliance monitoring of any kind is excellent for visibility and accountability. Vanta made it easy to integrate with AWS, and the number of system integrations for access tracking is growing rapidly, particularly with the recent launch of the custom integration framework. Compared to previous experiences with SOC2 audits, it significantly accelerated and reduced stress.
I haven't needed much customer support, but when I or a colleague did, the response was prompt, and they were receptive to feedback and product feature requests. Engaged customer success managers have been a valuable asset.
Integrations with platforms like Slack and Email mean that I don't need to log into the Vanta platform often, which is beneficial. This allows the team assigned to specific items or tests to respond quickly to changes and resources that require attention.
While not unique to compliance automation platforms, Vanta's partnerships with accredited and well-renowned auditing companies have improved the audit process. Working with auditors familiar with the platform enhances efficiency in locating monitoring and report functionalities.

What do you dislike about the product?
It's beneficial to utilize AWS infrastructure tags for specifying monitored resources. However, it would be advantageous to have more granular control, distinguishing between excluding a specific resource for a particular test versus excluding it from all tests.
Since the platform focuses on compliance monitoring, marking resources as out of scope presents challenges. It results in either incomplete tracking of resources or additional work for auditors to filter out what's deemed 'out of scope.' Enhancing the ability to monitor and categorize resources as in scope for specific frameworks would be beneficial.
Initially, some functionalities like risk and asset management, along with their interconnectedness and links to controls, were absent. However, these features are swiftly being introduced and enhanced.

It lets you see everything that you need to do to meet compliance requirements at a glance, demystifying the process significantly for those who aren't familiar with it.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish Vanta gave better insight into scenarios when certain listed policies, documents, tests, etc aren't needed, especially for smaller companies where a lot of things don't end up applying.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's making it much more straighforward to understand what we need to do to be compliant.
