# Has anyone else felt friction between Drata’s control depth and their own compliance approach or frameworks?

In my environment, Drata sometimes feels like it wants to drive our program rather than support how we already work. Default policy guidance leans toward more controls and text than our auditors actually expect, and some auto tests are hard coded to values that do not match our existing risk decisions. I have also run into requests from leadership for frameworks or regional schemes that are not yet in Drata, or where the control mapping feels rigid. The result is extra time justifying to stakeholders why Drata says one thing while our documented practice says another.
For those with established programs or non‑standard frameworks, how do you balance Drata’s built‑in control depth and defaults with your own risk decisions and regional or industry‑specific requirements?
