Great product makes SOC2 certification easy
What do you like best about the product?
Turnkey audit evidence that covers 90% of SOC2 auditor questions.
Made Type I audit a breeze.

What do you dislike about the product?
Out of the box policies were a little too corporate for our use. They were a good basis to build and soften our policies.
Early adopter meant that not every integration we used was covered at the time.
Would like greater detail or insight into control coverage, more robust risk and vendor management.

Security control justification.
Suggestion of vendors to meet control requirements (looking at integrations Vanta offers)
Audit readiness & evidence capture.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
If the integrations cover your needs, it makes SOC2 certification so much easier.
Super easy and time save for soc 2 compliance.
What do you like best about the product?
Their team is knowledgable in both soc 2 practices and their actual tool, making them very valuable and helpful. The tool is awesome and simple. I like the weekly updates as well.
It's great that they also have partnerships with auditors, so we don't have to do the extra work to find one and build that relationship. We trust their audit partners.

What do you dislike about the product?
Not much! Would be nice if it already has reports from 3rd party tools. Would also be cool to edit template for processes right in tool rather than download.
Really is a great tool.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Soc 2 and overall security compliance. Organization of the documents for these was always a headache, which make vanta so great to use, and finding templates for all these docs was always a trouble. But vanta provides exactly what we need.
It's also a big cost saver for soc 2 compliance.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely schedule time on your calendar as you will need to check in weekly or bi weekly but it doesn't take long and is super easy to use. Their training is very helpful too, so definitely schedule it.
Great tool, with even better customer support
What do you like best about the product?
Customer support is great - fast, responsive, and consistent. The product itself is becoming pretty integral to our employee onboarding and offboarding, as well as (of course) our SOC 2 compliance (the main thing we use it for). The task checklist is a really helpful tool to keep tabs on where we need to make additional investments in data security and privacy.
What do you dislike about the product?
Integrations and product support for GCP customers were less robust than for AWS customers in the beginning, but they've been steadily adding features to get to feature parity for GCP customers. I'm not sure they're quite there yet, but it definitely feels closer now.
A few of the task-tracking statuses show incorrect data every now and then. I'm guessing this is because it only syncs with our services periodically, but some tasks can remain out-of-sync for a couple days before they reflect changes we've already made to address the issues originally raised.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SOC 2 compliance is much easier to track with Vanta. There's still a lot of manual process involved, but Vanta is eliminating those exceptions every day.
Vanta provides a one stop shop for compliance 100+ continuously monitored controls
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to get a lot of value. Real security and working towards SOC 2.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the nitty gritty history takes a little longer to get to (accessibility) but that's improving.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ensure we cover security across the board. We got our SOC 2.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Vanta is willing to be hands on and spend time with you to get it right. That is valuable, so use it.
Easy to use and great functionality. Definitely worth it!
What do you like best about the product?
* Unification of security reporting
* Clear path to resolve ongoing issues
* Great visibility for sharing policies with 3rd parties

What do you dislike about the product?
* A little confusing at first
* A few bugs we ran into that were rapidly resolved by their support team

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We used Vanta to streamline our security practices. The dashboard allows us to maintain company wide security policies that keep everyone safe.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure to have in depth knowledge of your own architecture as that is the one piece you need to own as a company.
Using Vanta to kick start SOC2 audit
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta allows us to build living policies and be alerted to non-compliance which also makes it easy for us to export out those policies for MSAs with clients.
What do you dislike about the product?
Vanta is in its early stages, some of the usability does not lend itself to large bulk actions or organization.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta has saved us time and effort in identifying gaps in our security compliance, MFA, device encryption etc...
Auditing the dozens of SaaS services manually would have taken much much longer and still there would have been things missed.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
For all of the shortcomings in the product, the team at Vanta is SUPER responsive and actively seeks feedback. Many of the issues ranging from bugs to product enhancements have already been addressed, often immediately after we have spoken with them. For that reason alone I would recommend Vanta.
