Intuitive Compliance Tool with Friendly UI
What do you like best about the product?
I like Vanta's friendly and easy-to-navigate UI as it's intuitive and doesn't require a lot of time invested to get stuff done. The customer support is easily accessible, which is really valuable to me, and I found the initial setup to be easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish Vanta provided more proactive recommendations, like automatically resolving outstanding issues.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Vanta for compliance monitoring, policy management, vulnerability management, and customer trust center.
Streamlined Security Compliance with Robust Automation
What do you like best about the product?
I use Vanta for our security certifications, and the automated evidence collection keeps us audit-ready in the background, which is a big plus. I appreciate the Trust Center as it reduces the back and forth significantly. The continuous monitoring feature, AI-powered questionnaire automation, and direct evidence mapping are major highlights for me as they help automate our security compliance initiatives. Setting up Vanta was simple, which I found to be user-friendly.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes automated tests can be too sensitive and need exclusion rules. More flexibility for non-standard technical stacks where Vanta's API may not have direct integration.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Vanta for security certifications with automated evidence collection and audit readiness. The Trust Center cuts down back-and-forth communication, and features like continuous monitoring and AI-powered automation streamline compliance initiatives.
Valuable for Risk Management, Needs Refinements
What do you like best about the product?
I like Vanta because it helps me with two main things: our enterprise risk management program and our annual SOC two audit. It's really helpful for serving as part of my enterprise risk management process, having a risk register, and providing a central repository for all the risks. It serves perfectly for IT control purposes, especially for SOC two, where it's integrated with our external auditor who can easily access it to view control tests and submit or pull documentation automatically. I also find it easy to track our annual risks and risk assessments, and to manage risk mitigation plans and corrective actions with management to ensure they are completed by their implementation due dates. The initial setup was a very easy process with no issues.
What do you dislike about the product?
The thing that can be improved has to do with the risk register or the central repository and all the tracking for the risk mitigation plans. Right now, I'm utilizing the notes section for each of the identified risks, and this part is manual. You have to enter updates manually, and there's concern about somebody overriding the previous update without entering a new note. So things like that could be improved.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta provides a central repository for enterprise risk management, helping with annual risk assessments and tracking mitigation plans. It serves as a valuable tool for SOC 2 audits by integrating easily with external auditors.
Streamlines Compliance with Effective Vendor Security
What do you like best about the product?
I like Vanta for its compliance standards, especially their correctness to these standards. It makes it easy to check any control or evidence required for compliance, and helps resolve vulnerabilities and core changes. Vanta is valuable for integrating with our vendors and maintaining our repository and access controls.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think they could improve Vanta by integrating AI features. It would be helpful if the evidence collected could be tested on the vendor without needing an auditor or third party. This would give us better visibility and understanding of the uploads. Also, the initial setup was pretty hard, although we had vendor support. Now it's easier, but it was a bit challenging initially to know how Vanta is useful and how to use it effectively.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Vanta for compliance with SOC 2 and other standards, vendor monitoring, managing changes, vulnerabilities, and maintaining evidence and access. It simplifies checking controls and maintaining a compliance repository.
Makes SOC 2 Compliance Clear and Easy
What do you like best about the product?

What do you dislike about the product?
It is quite expensive for a small start up to use, but worth it if you don’t have a lot of resources.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is helping provide a structure to ensure compliance.
Effortless Compliance with Vanta's User-Friendly Interface

What do you dislike about the product?
In the beginning, I had to reconfigure my settings a lot.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Streamlined Compliance and Security Management
What do you like best about the product?
I like how Vanta provides visibility into our weak areas in security and makes it easier to stay in compliance. As HR, I appreciate seeing all employees and their training/security issues in one place, saving me hours of manually going through a tracking sheet, which often has a larger margin of error due to outdated data.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be hard to navigate with so many features. Just the amount to go through when you start using it at a company, there is a lot of self-learning.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta gives us visibility into weak security areas, streamlines compliance, manages offboarding, cybersecurity policies, HIPAA training, and consolidates employee and training data, saving hours on manual updates and reducing errors.
Effective for Compliance, Needs Better Auditor Support
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Vanta helps us achieve SOC 2 compliance and manage audits with less procurement hassle by providing a guide of the controls needed. I appreciate the new AI agent, which has relevant context of our existing policies, documents, and posture.
What do you dislike about the product?
Pricing is pretty steep. Auditor visibility and audit standardization could be improved. The platform leaves room for confusion with how evidence is tracked and shared. We find ourselves providing evidence for things that should be easily auto tracked. Initial setup was relatively difficult because it didn't provide guidance on what SOC2 is for a company navigating it for the first time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta helps us achieve compliance and get audits with less procurement. The new AI agent has relevant context of our existing policies, making it easier to navigate new territories.
