From service to implementation Vanta are technically very good and great people to work with.
What do you like best about the product?
Reduction of the complexity of the security certification process, post-implementation mindshare and risk and great portal. Not worried about competitors because the client and shareholder base are Five stars on both counts.
What do you dislike about the product?
I only learned about it last year or that it was not a solution on the market or security until recent times. Nothing else so far to dislike.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mindshare, outside consulting costs and assisting with business development and client reporting post-sales
Automated compliance tracking saves time
What do you like best about the product?
Our goal is SOC 2 Type II attestation to begin, and then we will tackle other attestations such as ISO. We had undertaken a readiness project with one of the big names in accounting, but all was manual and we had to work hard to figure out what was actually needed for policies and configs. Everything is clearer with Vanta, expectations are clear, and systems are monitored which will save time for the attestation and also keeping us compliant. Our reason for selecting Vanta over 2 other compliance softwares was price and the automated connection with an auditor.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are cases where we have good reasons to not follow the exact path as laid out, but there is no way to add a note to explain an exceptionality. This would be useful, and could assist the auditor.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Obtaining SOC 2 attestation. Later other attestations such as ISO that will be useful for our non-North American clients and help us build a market in the UK.
I wish I would have found Vanta sooner
What do you like best about the product?
Everything is in one place. Before Vanta, our ISMS was spread across 5 or 6 different platforms. It was a nightmare to keep track of and maintain. Now it's easy to find things, and there are so many automations and integrations with our other systems.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't know if I'd call it a dislike, but if I had a recommendation, it would be to come up with a way to organize the initial set up so that it doesn't look like such a monumental task of setting up an entire ISMS. Maybe break it up into chunks or priority items? Obviously I want access to everything, but seeing over a hundred different outstanding tasks on the home page can be a bit overwhelming.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
One of the biggest problems with our previous solution was that everything was manual. With the integrations and automated monitoring, it takes a lot of that work off my plate.
A Security Compliance Game Changer
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta helped us structure and understand the SOC2 requirements. It turned out to be a well-organized security project management platform. It was easy to work on missing pieces and cooperate with the auditors.
Vanta's platform is incredibly clean and intuitive, making it easy for our team to navigate and understand the compliance process. Pre-populated templates and automated workflows took the manual grunt work out of evidence collection and documentation, saving us countless hours.
Seamless integrations with our existing cloud tools like AWS and Google Workspace saved us the hassle of juggling multiple platforms. Data automatically flowed into Vanta, further streamlining the process.
Vanta's platform goes beyond simple compliance management. They actively monitored our environment for potential security risks and provided timely alerts and actionable insights. This proactive approach gave us peace of mind and increased our security posture.

What do you dislike about the product?
Vanta needs to think of integrating more tools, such as automated vulnerability scans, into the platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta streamlined the process of obtaining SOC2 certification for us. As a small company, it was a challenge because we couldn't dedicate a part of our team to work exclusively on this security project. With Vanta, it was easy to switch between projects without losing context.
Vanta is simple to use and is very orderly.
What do you like best about the product?
It has everything separated into easy-to-navigate menus. Additionally, it has powerful filters and indicators to identify specific, defined criteria within a desired time frame.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only feature that can cause some difficulty with the Vanta platform is that out-of-scope controls do not need to be given a description on the reason why they are not applicable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta is helping our clients prepare for audit compliance by ensuring that clients know what evidence needs to be provided for their audit and provides them with resources that they can use to establish processes and procedures. This helps us have the ability to work with more clients at a time and perform audits at a quicker pace.

AWS integration is slightly difficult with only the ec2 instace IDs showing up instead of machine names. This is an issue only in vulnerability view but the names are displayed in the inventory

Using Vanta for GRC activities
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta is so user-friendly. It enables us to perform bulk actions at a time. It also allows us to customize our policy pack from already existing policies. Tracking compliance is always a plus when using this platform.
What do you dislike about the product?
In some areas (Like integrations), it is a bit limited as we do not have all integrations. Would be a great plus when you have integrations with more tools widely used in the market.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta allows us to track internal and external compliance. It integrates with our HRMS, Antivirus and Background verification tool (for the US) only, there by making life easier for our internal audits and evidence gathering
