Vanta for Healthcare Technology
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta keeps the client organization on target and organized. Vanta is best used with a project manager to keep the company focused and on target. Vanta uses a 1st level manager for the initial training and compliance issues. Vanta uses a 2nd level manager to complete the project. Vanta will also recommend various auditors but will not allow your company to undergo the audit until the company is ready. The company can interview the auditor candidates and make the final selection of the auditor. Be aware that after the first Type1/2 audit is complete, the company can always change auditors. Vanta did prepare us for the audit and made the audit as minimally painful as possible. Obviously, for the first audit, there may be considerable anxiety, but the Vanta staff did give us the confidence to make it through the audit successfully.
What do you dislike about the product?
Vanta is a well-oiled machine. I have nothing that I dislike about Vanta.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta kept my company organized and focused on obtaining SOC2 audit.
Best in the business
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta features an intuative interface, great controls and policy templates to get started. Meters which show your completion among several compliance standards helps motivate completion. Integration with a variety of cloud vendors is great and uniquely Vanta tailors its monitors to your cloud, so if your on GCP all the controls map to GCP, not all clouds, which makes life easier. Also, unlike compeditors, Vanta has a great risk management module built in.
What do you dislike about the product?
Thats a hard one, Vanta is head and shoulders above the competition. My only nit-pick might be that I'd like to create my own custom monitors... the platform has a good API and you can upload your own evidence but thats not the same as a "monitor" which continiously updates with your readiness status. But I'm also told this feature is coming in the future.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta is a solid, easy-to-use GRC platform with a lot of automation baked in with no effort to deploy and a good set of partners for setting up your audit. Unified mapping among multiple compliance frameworks helps reduce future effort.
Compliance made easy!
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta has great policy templates for an organization to start its compliance journey. The integrations are the key to success, eliminating 90% of repetitive manual tasks for us. The monitors ensure that we remain compliant. The auditor network dramatically simplifies the audit process, as auditors only need to ask about exceptional situations.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's pricey! The ability to have clickable links in custom checklist tasks would be great.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The company needed to improve its compliance posture. Vanta helped organize all elements of the compliance process, including policies and controls and ensured all systems were compliant.
Happy customer for 3+ years
What do you like best about the product?
SOC2 is an industry standard, though until Vanta there wasn't a standard way of getting it. We found immense value in closing deals by offering up our SOC2 stamp of approval. Additionally, as a growing company, it has been vital to ensure we're keeping and monitoring best practices internally.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's not much bad to say. The solution truly works as stated. The biggest issue we are running into is that as the product suite grows and we get more excited about new products to take advantage of, we are finding ourselves needing a person to actually own the Vanta platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Vanta to keep our internal security in check, ensure all new hires undergo the appropriate training, and understand why certain security tactics are essential. We also appreciate the SOC2 stamp of approval Vanta gives us, which helps us in sales.
Fast lane to compliance
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta is making policy management and compliance requirements management painless.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the technical integrations need a bit of tweaking to pull in the right data.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta solves policy versioning and approval management for me, which gives me time back.
Vanta makes compliance monitoring so much easier!
What do you like best about the product?
Because I am solely responsible for compliance monitoring, having everything on one platform with automated tests and reminders to users makes my job so much easier than if I had to do these tasks manually.
What do you dislike about the product?
I can't say that there is anything I dislike about Vanta. There are some integrations we use that require more manual work for me (I expected the integrations to have less manual work), so I disconnected the integrations.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta solves so many of our problems! Our compliance is continually monitored, so preparing for our external audit is much easier and fairly painless. I can tell which controls are needed for which people (if they do not immediately take action after receiving the email). I can tell what gorup of controls needs the most attention. The reporting is clear to share with the leadership team.
The perfect way to manage your Security Frameworks
What do you like best about the product?

Some of the UI could be improved but nothing major.

Getting and maintaining compliance with all the relevant Security frameworks. Vanta is taking care of that entirely.
Take the compliance information to a single place
What do you like best about the product?
Since I started to use Vanta I got very impressed with how it simplifies the process of compliance for SOC2. Vanta is a tool that automates the collection and monitoring of evidence for various security controls, such as encryption, access management, backups, logging, and more. It also provides guidance and best practices for improving the security posture of the organization. Vanta helps me save time and resources that would otherwise be spent on manual tasks and audits. It also gives me peace of mind that I am meeting the standards and expectations of my customers and regulators. Vanta is very easy to use and integrates with other tools and platforms that I already use. The dashboard is clear and intuitive, and the reports are comprehensive and detailed. The support team is responsive and helpful, and they always listen to feedback and suggestions. Vanta is also very affordable compared to other solutions in the market. It offers flexible pricing plans that suit different needs and budgets. I highly recommend Vanta to anyone who is looking for a reliable and efficient tool for compliance for SOC2.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't have anything negative to say about Vanta but just to populate the field I will say that it didn't have an integration with one of the tools that I was using before, but it took a few months only to be rolled out on the panel.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta is solving the problem of security compliance for companies. By automating the whole process from collecting and verifying evidence, to the Audit report.
