    Great GRC instrument

    Reviewed on 2023/11/26

    Pros

    Policy creation and management. Toons of integration and automated tests. Very cool integrated vulnerability management.

    Cons

    Risk management can be more flexible. We started the new approach to risk assessment and can’t use internal risk management instrument so we made it in excel :-)

    We needed to get SOC 2 audit ready and were only progressing slowly with the manual approach. As it turned out that manual preamble was useful because when we started using Vanta, we understood the terminology and understood what was wanted.

    Pros

    Vanta enabled us to move our compliance (SOC 2, and next PCI) projects forward in an organized and monitored manner. After struggling manually with SOC 2 requirements with a major accounting firm, we got to audit readiness in half a year and felt confident going into our audit.

    Cons

    There is definitely a learning curve, and I am sure the system has useful features that I have not encountered yet. That is not really a negative, though.

    Reasons for Switching to Vanta

    3 main reasons: 1. Vanta's integration with an audit firm. We could connect with an audit firm through Vanta, rather than just working from a list. 2. The price was actually the most reasonable. 3. They offer modules for other frameworks we want to work on going forward.

    Vanta offers exploitative billing practices - have fun!

    The most frustrating vendor relationship I've ever had.

    The most frustrating vendor relationship I've ever had.

    Pros

    UX/UI is simple and straightforward. Outside of that, I don't like much.

    Cons

    Vanta is parasitic - I would avoid unless you're comfortable risking the below sort of vendor/client relationship.

    Vanta sent us an invoice reminder for a $15,600 bill that was on an auto-payment scheduled. I responded as soon as I received the invoice to request a delay for us to decide whether we would like to continue the service or not. There was NO note on the invoice specifying that it would be "auto-paid". My request for delay went to apparently went to an undelivered address.

    When the invoice due date came, our card was auto-charged. I followed up with Vanta IMMEDIATELY to request clarity and a refund as I understood we had an invoice, not an auto-drafting payment. They were not authorized to auto-draft it.

    After following up and escalating the request for several months, the only response I've gotten to date is "look at our terms of service".

    We are a potential long-term client, being treated like a number on a spreadsheet. Why?

    We are making ZERO draws on Vanta services, yet they are treating us like this. Why?

    This has been the most frustrating and unreasonable vendor/client relationship I've ever experienced.

    Overall, it’s been a great experience. Vanta really takes the stress out of managing compliance and security by automating so much of the work. It’s reliable and does what it promises, though there are a few areas where it could improve, like giving users more control over notifications and tweaking integrations. Still, it’s a tool I’d recommend to anyone dealing with compliance.

    Pros

    I really like how easy it is to use. It saves a ton of time when dealing with compliance and security tasks, especially compared to doing everything manually. The dashboards are well-designed, so it’s easy to see what needs attention and track progress without getting lost. It feels like it’s made for busy teams that don’t want to waste time figuring out complicated systems.

    Cons

    Sometimes there are just too many notifications or reminders, and it can feel a bit overwhelming if you’re trying to focus on other tasks. It’d be great if there was a way to customize them more, like turning off ones that aren’t super urgent. Also, some integrations could work smoother, but it’s not a dealbreaker.

    Very good. We have been able to formalize our internal security programs and successfully completed our SOC2 audit.

    The Vanta team has always been very responsive to our needs, soliciting feedback and promptly answering questions (no matter how basic) and guiding is in the right direction.

    Pros

    We love that Vanta has made it easy for us to develop a comprehensive InfoSec program and helped us prepare for our SOC2 audit. Onboarding was straightforward and the continuous monitoring ensures ongoing compliance. The product integrates with most of the software we use day-to-day and has saved a lot of time.

    Cons

    There are some areas of the UI which are a bit rough around the edges and non-intuitive, I chalk this up to Vanta being a relatively new product. It has improved a lot since we became a customer and specific areas such as the employees onboarding/off-boarding flows show that the team is constantly iterating and responsive to user feedback.

    In addition, I would love to see more automation in the product - we are a smaller company without a dedicated IT team. Vanta does a great job of alerting us to issues, but being able to help us take steps to remediate would be much appreciated.
