Excellent Product for SOC-2 Compliance Needs
What do you like best about the product?
The Product is designed well for SOC2 compliance, though it supports other compliance aspects too. The software guides through the SOC2 process excellently. One does not need to know all the processes involved for SOC2 compliance, and a novice user too can understand it easily. Every step in the system for Process documentation, People On-Boarding, Risk Assessment documents, there is a straightforward guide. There are predefined template documents that one can use to complete the intuitive compliance documents.

Some security compliances are mandatory, but there should be a place to customize them.

IT Manager review for Vanta
What do you like best about the product?
I like that integrating Vanta agent; it flags all my users' machines that are out of policy. For example, I know when a user adjusts their 5 min lock screen display or does not have Filevault encrypted. The agent is super helpful in making sure everyone is up to policy
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't particularly appreciate how the Vanta UI constantly updates without being informed. Almost every month I log into Vanta, a new feature is pushed and sometimes I am unable to find things. This is really bothersome. Also, the Vanta Agent does not auto update on some machines. Many times machines would get flagged even though they are still compliant. I have to tell users to remove and then install the agent again. I never know when these updates happen and it slows my work down a lot.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am solving a lot of issues with finding out what servers are close to missing SLA due to misconfigurations. I am also solving onboarding issues - Vanta for sure lets me know when a user has not downloaded the agent, accepted company policies, and have not completed security training. The onboard process for contractors has been helpful with using vanta as well! I was able to make sure contractors have their own checklist to complete.

documentation that will remediate issues quickly.
What do you dislike about the product?
No real issues to not so far, Vanta is always very responsive to any issues we have had.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Not only does Vanta give us SOC2 compliance-related information, but putting all of the services we use in AWS, and even discovered some services we were no longer using.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Vanta is a great tool that takes a lot of the manual effort out of things like asset inventory and cloud assets.
Key resource for reducing mental overhead of compliance
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of monitoring is crucial; automating many tasks that would otherwise fall across many teams and individuals is great to get a crystal clear view of your organizations compliance state. The path to ramping up on new compliance objects is awesome as well, as it provides a great way to get stakeholders all across the org aligned.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the rules are a bit over-prescriptive and aren't super flexible. If you don't use a standard approach to some of the monitored compliance controls, it's hard to make that monitoring work for you.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're working on multiple legislative compliance objectives. Vanta was crucial to keeping our team nimble while approaching compliance and organizing our growth journey.
Makes SOC2 Preparation Easy
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta has been a great partner in preparing for and maintaining a security program for SOC 2 audits. The platform makes it very clear what you need to do in order to maintain compliance and prepare for audits with a lot of automation that connects to popular cloud apps.
What do you dislike about the product?
The downside is added costs for multiple security frameworks if you need something in addition to SOC 2.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SOC 2 Type II audit preparation. We've been able to prepare for and facilitate a SOC 2 Type II audit out of the Vanta platform and find an auditor through Vanta's auditor partner network.
Vanta is an essential partner in our compliance work

Continual improvement of the platform, with a focus on usability.
What do you dislike about the product?
We've encountered some occasional bugginess when installing the Vanta Agent, but nothing highly problematic.

Easy to use, excellent customer service.
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta's customer service is excellent. They are quick to respond and helpful. Beyond that, the software itself is easily navigable. The dashboard view in particular makes it easy to address outstanding issues and stay SOC2 compliant.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's a bit tricky to upload documentation, and not every tool we use has an integration with Vanta, so some things (like international background checks) we have to keep track o and upload manually.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Vanta primarily to monitor and address potential issues with maintaining our SOC2 compliance. It's easy to use Vanta to put together a report on how quickly we address issues.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're looking to use Vanta, just know that you'll also need a remote IT provider for computer onboarding/offboarding. Other than that, it does almost everything!
