What do you dislike about the product?
It can take quite a bit of time to get Vanta set up initially, but that may be lack of full understanding of compliance needs prior to having our first SOC-2 completed.
After the initial setup, the continued use is very simple and saves a lot of time overall.

Simple Setup, Helpful Integration
What do you like best about the product?
I find the setup of Vanta very simple, which allows for a smooth start. The pre-made templates for individual documents, guidelines, and policies are particularly helpful as they save a lot of time and make organization easier. I also appreciate the automated reminders for tests, which keep me constantly updated and ensure that nothing is overlooked. The ability to upload spreadsheets, especially Google Spreadsheets, and links as evidence is very practical and supports seamless documentation. Additionally, I like the automatic integration with our software like GitLab or Personio and other tools, as this makes working more efficient. Everything seems very sleek and modern, which provides me with a pleasant user experience.

Sometimes, I get a bit lost navigating the interface. Even though my background is in IT engineering rather than security, I have to say that the explanations provided are generally clear and helpful.

Perfect Compliance Tool for Small Teams, But May Not Scale for Complex Org Structures
What do you like best about the product?
In my experience, this tool greatly streamlines the process of tracking and managing compliance. It also makes it much easier to provide auditors with the necessary evidence for various controls. This is especially valuable for smaller organisations like mine, where we often lack the manpower to continuously oversee policies, controls, and evidence.
What do you dislike about the product?
While this solution works well for smaller companies, I have found that it may not always address the specific requirements that larger organisations have in their audit processes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta plays a central role in our compliance process. We rely on it to monitor our compliance status, manage risks, conduct security assessments, oversee vulnerability management, handle MDM, and address many other needs.
Robust Compliance Tool with Seamless HITRUST Integration
What do you like best about the product?
I truly value Vanta's effectiveness in keeping us up to date with compliance, controls, policies, and procedures, which is critical for our security needs. I appreciate how it seamlessly integrates with HITRUST, helping us manage our certification requirements efficiently, which is crucial as we need to undergo an annual review and a full certification every other year. The policy and procedure notifications are extremely helpful in ensuring our annual review and ratification processes are smooth. I also love that Vanta offers this comprehensive ecosystem where everything is kept in one place, and it makes it easy to notify the necessary users about updates. Moreover, I am impressed by the compliance portal that allows our customers to access all of our attestations and certifications directly, eliminating the need to send them ZIP files, thus streamlining and professionalizing our interactions with potential customers. With integration capabilities with software like Microsoft Entra, OneDrive, and CrowdStrike, among others, it fits perfectly into our existing infrastructure, offering us a cohesive workflow. I found the setup to be straightforward, largely due to Vanta’s user-friendly approach that guides us through the process effectively. Overall, my six-month experience using Vanta has been nothing short of satisfying, fulfilling all our needs for a GRC tool, and I am very happy with our decision to utilize their services.

The setup process, while not difficult, was notably time-intensive due to the number of uploads, edits, and assignments required. Although the setup is facilitated with a step-by-step guide, a more detailed walkthrough could have made it even more efficient.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Vanta to keep our compliance and security up to date, streamline policy reviews, and support HITRUST certification, enhancing our governance and reducing manual overhead.
