Solid Out-of-the-Box Compliance Frameworks
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to get started with out-of-the-box compliance frameworks, very helpful for beginners to get started. Saves a lot of time. Helpful support.
What do you dislike about the product?
Vanta is quite pricey. AI could be better integrated into the solution.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
You can get started from scratch quite rapidly, even without previous experience.
Simplifies Compliance, Boosts Reputation
What do you like best about the product?
I like the simplicity and intuitiveness of Vanta. It makes the complex process of compliance much easier to manage. Having everything simplified in a viable and compliant way is super valuable. The initial setup seems pretty easy as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
Well, I would have to use the platform a bit more since we're in the middle of the audit. But, I mean, evidently, these types of things take time to do.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta helps us get contracts with clients and boosts our reputation, which we can leverage.
Security enhancement features stand out, but lack user-friendliness.
What do you like best about the product?
It seems like you manage the security of work computers well. The 'device monitor' feature is particularly impressive. Through this feature, you can monitor the usage of work computers and ensure that non-employees cannot use them.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's inconvenient that changing the computer name requires reinstalling everything from scratch. It seems like it could be done through the computer's internal IME or something... Also, ScreenLock wasn't set automatically, so I was asked to install it manually, which was cumbersome. Additionally, it was a bit difficult to configure... I'm not a developer, but I had to work in CLI mode to solve the problem.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Resolve the company's SoC2 compliance issues, enhance the security of work computers with a device monitor, and prevent non-employees from using them.
A Single Source of Truth for Policies, Evidence, and Audit Readiness
What do you like best about the product?
It creates a single source of truth. Policies, evidence, controls, and audit status all live together. When an auditor asks a question, you are not hunting across email, shared drives, and ticketing systems. You can see what is missing, what is stale, and what is already approved.
What do you dislike about the product?
There’s ongoing overhead to keep everything accurate. Integrations can break, agents go stale, users change roles, and environments evolve. When that happens, Vanta may flag issues that aren’t always a real risk, but they still require explanation or cleanup. The task lists and audit updates often reflect recurring work to refresh access reviews, evidence, and mappings, even outside formal audit windows.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It scales better than manual processes. As environments grow, staff changes, or frameworks stack up, Vanta keeps the structure intact. You are not rebuilding your compliance process every year or re teaching it to new team members from scratch.
Vanta gets you through the toughest aspects of compliance with ease
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta is a very comprehensive and intuitive platform that guides you through the compliance processes. Having everything in one place is highly advantageous and efficient for our organization. The policy templates are a huge time saver.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have no complaints about this software.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are pursuing compliance and auditing of specific security frameworks applicable to our industry, and Vanta makes this very simple. The amount of time saved makes the software practically pay for itself.

Outstanding Support and Responsiveness from Vanta
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta’s support and responsiveness are outstanding. Every interaction with their team has been professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly helpful. As we work through complex compliance requirements, their team consistently provides clear guidance and quick resolutions. It’s rare to work with a vendor that is this responsive and easy to partner with, and it has made a real difference for our team.
What do you dislike about the product?
At this point we haven’t encountered any major issues. If anything, some areas of the platform have a lot of functionality, which can take a little time to fully understand when you’re first navigating the system. However, the support team has been extremely responsive and helpful whenever we’ve had questions, which makes the learning curve much easier.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vanta helped us quickly resolve access and configuration issues within our instance, specifically enabling us to properly add our auditors. Their support team responded quickly, understood exactly what we needed, and helped ensure the setup was done correctly so our compliance and audit work could continue without delays. This kind of responsiveness is extremely valuable when working against audit timelines.
Everything in One Place—Simple and Seamless
What do you like best about the product?
everything is in the same place and easy to find
What do you dislike about the product?
sometimes the answer of the help desk is not personalised
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
a lot, how to use the platform, how to create task very efficient
Vanta AI Has Been a Big Help Recently
What do you like best about the product?
The recent addition of the Vanta AI feature has been very helpful lately
What do you dislike about the product?
There’s a lack of proper integration for monitoring tests. For example, the current monitoring tests are all tied to infrastructure providers like AWS and GCP. However, even though there is a Datadog integration, there’s no way to satisfy these tests through Datadog.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The main problem Vanta solves for me is during audits. The Audits tab in Vanta is very helpful for submitting evidence to auditors, and it also lets them send requests there.
