## Vanta Reviews
  ### 1. Vanta Not a Good Solution for a Solo-Person Software Company

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 08, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

It offers a checklist of things that need to be done in an easy-to-understand user interface.  This makes going through each item and crossing it off the list a straightforward process. They also provide directions on how to do each step properly which is critical for a small company like mine that doesn't have a lot of infrastructure experience.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

They are optimized to work best with medium to large sized companies and their automated processes are built with those expectations.  For a solopreneur company like mine, the entire process is time-consuming, burdensome and near impossible. They did not offer proper guidance to me about what it would take to get SOC2 compliance for a company my size and I felt misled by their salesperson about the "ease" with which it could be done.  Items like "every PR must be approved by someone else" isn't possible in a 1-person company.  Things like "you must commit a PR to your code every month" also doesn't apply when the product is mature and feature complete. There are numerous other examples of where a small or solo software company would not be able to meet Vanta's requirements.  This should have been disclosed better in my initial discussion with them. All in all it's been a huge headache to try to get certified, I doubt I'll ever be able to reach the endpoint, and I wish I had never signed up with Vanta.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We wanted to be compliant with SOC-2 in order to try to land government contracts which would have required this compliance.  Vanta claimed to make this process easy with checklists and offered another company (Workstreet) to help us during this process.  I would not say we've benefitted from Vanta in any way however.

**Official Response from Ayleen Beltran:**

> Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. I’m really sorry to hear that Vanta hasn’t felt like the right fit for your business. This isn’t the experience we want for any of our customers.

Vanta works with companies of all sizes, and putting customers first is one of our core principles. It’s disappointing to hear that we missed the mark in your case.

If you’re open to it, I’d really appreciate the opportunity to learn more and see how we can better support you. You can reach me directly at ayleen.beltran@vanta.com.

Thank you again for your honest feedback.

  ### 2. Easy to Use and Trustworthy

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ethan W. | Server Assistant, Expediter, Room Service , Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 09, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

Ease of use. Not scammy like other similar products

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

It's kind of expensive. It also doesn't do FedRamp as well as other similar services

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It helped us with SOC 2 compliance and is helping us with ISO 27001

  ### 3. Effortless Compliance Tracking and Integration

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 06, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I appreciate that Vanta integrates with most applications like BambooHR, AWS, and MongoDB Atlas, which helps in tracking all kinds of compliance issues. I like how it automatically gets vulnerability details from AWS Inspector and tracks to resolve them within the SLA period. Using Vanta, we can track and shoot down vulnerability issues very quickly and effectively. Additionally, the integration was a very easy peasy process.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

It can be used for integration with self-hosted software like self-hosted Mongo or MySQL servers.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Vanta for compliance tracking; it integrates with apps like BambooHR, AWS, and MongoDB Atlas, tracking compliance and resolving issues. It pulls vulnerability details from AWS Inspector and helps us quickly resolve vulnerabilities effectively.

  ### 4. Streamlined Compliance and Security Management

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Julie G. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 17, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

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 Vanta?**

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 Vanta 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.

  ### 5. Efficient Auditing Tool with Improvement Needed on Asset Integration

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ross G. | Cyber Security &amp; Compliance Lead, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 02, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I use Vanta for audits and it helps streamline the audit review cycle. I like the easy-to-use UI and the clear directions it gives me if an error occurs. Vanta's remediate feature for severity findings is very valuable because it walks you through how to remediate those findings. The initial setup of Vanta was as simple as 1, 2, 3.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

I think the integrations into our assets need to be improved. When we deactivate or remove assets, Vanta does not always recognize this, and it could lead to exceptions from auditors or just more work as we have to describe how those assets are decommissioned.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Vanta streamlines the audit review cycle and helps identify out-of-scope SLAs.

  ### 6. Streamlined Compliance with Intuitive Framework Mapping

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jean S. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 17, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I find Vanta to be incredibly helpful as a GRC platform, especially in making compliance standard achievements less painful and reducing manual work. I particularly appreciate the framework mapping and how it clearly outlines required tasks. It's great because it makes it easier for someone without a legal background to understand what controls we need to meet or tasks to complete and links them to the relevant standards and clauses. The initial setup was pretty straightforward, although the integration took some time.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

N/A

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Vanta to handle compliance tasks easily, reducing manual work. The framework mapping and clear tasks help even those without a legal background understand what controls and standards we need to meet.

  ### 7. Automated Tests Are a Huge Win for Policy Compliance

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Justin B. | Software Engineer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 17, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I think having the automated tests are huge. We sort of would like something that truly enforces that we're not just having stuff in place, but are enforcing our policies and such as well operationally.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

I think it can do a better job of truly enforcing that we're following things. Instead of just a policy exists, but here are examples where the policy was enforced, incident reports etc.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

SOC compliance. Which would normally be a very large load.

  ### 8. Streamlined SOC2 Compliance with Robust Integrations

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Hospital & Health Care | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 20, 2025

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I appreciate Vanta's ability to help us with the SOC2 certification process. The biggest selling point for me is its integration capabilities. Vanta integrates seamlessly with our main vendors and helps assess their setups. It's also great at detecting new and incoming vendors and vetting them as we move forward. The Google Cloud Platform and GitHub integrations have been instrumental in keeping us compliant and aware of any gaps. Additionally, we use the Slack integration to receive notifications about issues, which I find very useful. Setting up Vanta was surprisingly easy, thanks to the provided Terraform script, which I could refactor for our setup.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

A minor issue I've found with the security vulnerabilities component is the availability of a fix. Sometimes a dependency will have a fix, but the nature of the software we have makes those dependencies be transitive instead of direct dependencies. That means that we can't really fix the issue although the offending dependency has a fix. We end up monitoring those dependencies manually instead of relying on Vanta to tell us.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Vanta for the SOC2 certification process. It maps changes needed for certification with its integrations, monitors security vulnerabilities and infrastructure drift, keeping us compliant. Google Cloud and GitHub integrations help maintain compliance and identify gaps.

  ### 9. Keeps Our Security Posture Current and Compliance on Track

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer & Network Security | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 07, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

Keeping us up to date with our security posture and making sure that we are compliant in every aspect of our implementations.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

No real dislikes to be honest, I can say that this works well for us.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Again as mentioned earlier, we do ISO compliance on a regular basis and Vanta makes sure that we are where we need to be and the best would be on how to remediate certain aspects of our infrastructure.

  ### 10. Essential Tool for SOC 2 Compliance with Intuitive Usability

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jose R. | Director of Technology

**Reviewed Date:** February 04, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I like how Vanta helps us see the steps needed to ensure compliance, like which documents should be on file and actions for onboarding and offboarding. Their dashboard is very intuitive and easy to use. I appreciate the daily email reminders for tasks, which help me stay on top of compliance. The initial setup was extremely easy with Vanta, as they did most of the work and I just had to follow the online instructions.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

The login feature is clumsy. I can only log in using a magic link and have never been able to use credentials or know how to set them up. Also, even though the dashboard is easy to use, it's hard to search for things if you don't know where they are. Sometimes I struggle to find a document or report when I need to update it.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Vanta helps us get SOC 2 compliant by clarifying compliance steps and managing documents for onboarding and offboarding. The intuitive dashboard and daily task emails keep me organized.

  ### 11. Seamless SOC 2 Compliance with Vanta

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Shane E. | Founder &amp; CEO, Computer Software, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 04, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I really appreciate how simple Vanta is. It automatically gathers evidence or identifies failures and gaps in our security stance, which was always a pain in the past. This automation saves us a ton of time and money compared to doing it manually. The initial setup was dead simple, with no complexity other than the SOC 2 process itself. Vanta makes the entire SOC 2 process much easier and more affordable than anything we've done before.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

It's very minor, but sometimes when connecting to external systems, it could have a little bit more intelligence. It could just go put the tickets inside of our bug tracking system automatically. It has a button, but you end up manually configuring some stuff it already knows, which is not a huge headache but a nuisance. I think they could improve their product by connecting it fully end-to-end. They could notice a security problem and file that in our bug tracking system, and an agent would automatically pick it up, propose a solution, and alert us to review and merge.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Vanta to automate our SOC 2 process, reducing the administrative burden significantly. It simplifies the process by automatically gathering evidence and identifying security gaps, saving us time and money.

  ### 12. Efficient Compliance Monitoring with Minor Challenges

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Juan Pablo P.

**Reviewed Date:** February 06, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I like Vanta because it helps with monitoring and reporting, especially for compliance with HIPAA and SOC 2. As a monitoring user, I appreciate that the monitoring application is all-inclusive. As an admin, I like having clear action items and a list of tasks to take care of. It's helpful that Vanta automatically runs tests on our infrastructure, monitoring our workers' computers so we can track everything through one dashboard. This setup provides action items for the team to handle quickly.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

I think finding tests in the results list is hard sometimes. It takes some minutes to find them, and it's hard to sync that with the linear ticket. So that takes some time.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Vanta for compliance requirements like HIPAA and SOC 2. It automatically runs tests on our infrastructure, monitoring workers' computers, making tracking easier with one dashboard, and provides quick action items for the team.

  ### 13. Easy Compliance with Great Support, API Limitations

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 07, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I find Vanta easy to use, which is super helpful. The trust center feature is clear and great for sharing with customers. I also appreciate the nice support they offer, and the user interface is nice to work with. Setting it up was very easy as well.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

I wish the API wasn't only read-only, makes me waste a ton of time doing things myself Claude could be doing.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Vanta to gather all the evidence pre-audit for GDPR and SOC 2 compliance. It's easy to use with a clear trust center for sharing with customers. The support is nice, but the read-only API limits efficiency, requiring manual input Claude could automate.

  ### 14. Finally got our security audits under control

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Timucin D. | Growth Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 14, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

It directly links to our cloud apps to pull all the necessary proof automatically, so our dev team never has to manually screenshot settings again.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

Tuning the initial alerts is super frustrating because it flags literally everything at first, forcing you to spend hours muting false alarms.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It completely fast-tracks our enterprise deals since we can just hand over our compliance report instead of wasting weeks filling out endless security questionnaires.

  ### 15. Streamlined HR Security Workflow with Seamless Integration

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Oscar P.

**Reviewed Date:** February 03, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I like that Vanta simplifies our HR Security workflows by automating onboarding requirements like background checks and training, and it tracks offboarding tasks to maintain a clean security posture. It's great for simplifying our hiring process, especially with quick background check services that work well for international employees. I appreciate how easy it is to centralize policy documentation and configure custom SLAs, ensuring every new hire signs off on time, which helps during security audits. Vanta acts as a complete system for managing our security posture, making the employee lifecycle smoother and keeping us audit-ready without the manual spreadsheet fatigue. I find the integration capability impressive, as it flagged shadow IT apps we weren't aware of, which tightened our security perimeter. The self-guided setup was clear enough that we could connect our integrations and get our first GRC program running smoothly on our own.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

I've been using Vanta for a while, and lately, it feels like the platform is getting more complex, what used to be simple now feels a bit cluttered with all the new features and layers of navigation.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Vanta is our source of truth for policy management, automates HR security workflows, simplifies onboarding, tracks offboarding tasks, centralizes policy documentation, and ensures we stay audit-ready without manual effort.

  ### 16. Effortless Compliance Management with Vanta

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 14, 2025

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I use Vanta for SOC 2 compliance management, and it's amazing how it simplifies everything. Having one place to keep track of everything makes managing compliance so much easier. It's so simple to learn, and I went in as an untrained user last year and was able to learn the software easily. The fact that anyone on our security team can learn the software quickly and help with compliance is so helpful. The initial setup was super straightforward. Our sysadmin had no issues with the process, and it was easy to get it set up. Adding new vendors is easy, and when we had connection issues with a vendor, it was easy to solve. We've integrated it with Slack, GitLab, AWS, Gmail, Figma, and Sentry.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

I don't like that there are filters preset when you look at controls and tests. It would be nicer if nothing were filtered so when you check your tests/controls percentages you had an accurate count based on all data.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Vanta simplifies SOC 2 compliance by keeping everything in one place, making management easier. It's simple to learn, allowing anyone on our security team to help with compliance effectively.

  ### 17. Easy to Use Centralized Compliance Automation

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Quincy E. | DevOps Architect, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 03, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I use Vanta to automate our compliance controls, and I really like its centralized nature and automation because it saves us a lot of time and makes checking our controls much less confusing. The trust center is another great addition since it provides customers with information on our security and compliance without us having to manually send that info or answer their questions every time. The integration process is easy, especially with Google, AWS, and Namely. The initial setup was extremely easy. I would rate my likelihood of recommending Vanta to a friend or colleague as a 9.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

Some of the tests for the controls seem arbitrary, also occasionally it has issues syncing data from other tools but those bugs are usually resolved fairly quickly.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Vanta to automate compliance controls, making tracking much easier by centralizing them across our tools. It saves time, reduces confusion, and the trust center provides customers info on security and compliance. Integration with tools like Google and AWS is easy.

  ### 18. Seamless Compliance Management with Vanta

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Erwin S.

**Reviewed Date:** February 03, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I use Vanta for certification compliance for SOC2, HIPAA, and more. I appreciate knowing all the controls I need to have in place and the ease of managing multiple frameworks. The automated tests make it so much easier than doing it manually. I like that it covers multiple compliance frameworks and is relatively easy to use. Starting with SOC2, I was able to progress significantly with HIPAA, GDPR, and ISO27001, completing HIPAA quickly and making a huge step forward with GDPR. The initial setup was relatively easy, and I got it running quickly.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

The percentage of completion on new frameworks does not really show accurately until the framework is actually activated. They do mention this. The percentage complete on new frameworks should be the same before and after the frameworks are turned on/off.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Vanta to manage compliance for SOC2, HIPAA, and more. It helps me know all the necessary controls, manage multiple frameworks easily, and share overlapping evidence. The automated tests simplify the process compared to manual work.

  ### 19. Streamlined Compliance with Vanta

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Chris L.

**Reviewed Date:** February 03, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I really like how Vanta simplifies the traditionally complex process of managing security and compliance programs. The strong integrations and clear visibility into compliance status save our team a lot of time. It allows us to stay audit-ready at all times while focusing on building and scaling our business without compromising security or privacy. I also appreciate how intuitive and well-organized the platform is, making it easy for non-experts to quickly understand what's required and what's already covered.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

There's a bit of a learning curve early on, especially when configuring controls and integrations for the first time. Some workflows could be a bit more customizable to better match internal processes, and more flexibility in reporting would be helpful.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Vanta to automate and manage security and compliance, particularly for SOC2. It centralizes processes, reduces the operational burden, and keeps us audit-ready. I appreciate its simplicity, strong integrations, and the way it saves time while maintaining security.

  ### 20. Streamlined GRC Management with Intuitive Interface

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Harpal D. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 03, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I like Vanta mostly for its easy-to-use interface. The vendor management piece is particularly noteworthy as it allows us to track vendors in a centralized area and conduct security reviews as part of our procurement process. Setting up Vanta and working on the framework is easy, especially with the ability to manage controls via the 'test' area, which makes starting our compliance journey straightforward.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

Security questionnaires still need improvement - there are times where it doesn't understand question context. E.g., OpenAI is different to ChatGPT but it doesn't understand the difference. The interface is still a little clunky and you can't bulk approve easily - I would suggest a shift + down to select multiple questions and approve. Another issue is the universal search in the questionnaire Knowledge Base - you need to be VERY specific on what you want. If you don't write it how the search wants you will not find what you are looking for.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Vanta helps manage all controls for frameworks like SOC 2 in one place, with features like easy vendor management and an intuitive interface that aids in security reviews during procurement.

  ### 21. Effective Help for Regulatory Compliance

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Javier C.

**Reviewed Date:** February 03, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I really like the AI integrated into Vanta because it helps review my policies and compliance. I also appreciate the tracking the tool provides me. Another important aspect is being able to see the progress of our objectives to maintain the system. The guidance that helps me detect GAPS within my policies is also something I value greatly. Additionally, the initial setup was quite easy and intuitive. I would definitely give it a 10 and recommend it to a friend or colleague.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

Sometimes I find it difficult to clearly understand which controls I am dealing with, especially with SoC 2. When I receive a notification, I find it a bit complicated to find it or associate it with any available control. I think it could be improved, in the end I find it, but sometimes it takes me a bit to reach the controls.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Vanta helps me a lot in the monitoring and maintenance of the frameworks and detects gaps in my policies and tools, continuously improving.

  ### 22. Streamlined Compliance, But Needs Better Resource Management

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Nicolas M.

**Reviewed Date:** February 03, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I think Vanta has a very good onboarding process because it guides you step by step and explains what you should focus on. It makes setting up the platform and preparing for an audit straightforward. I find that audits through Vanta are much lighter than standard audits where the auditor comes on-site and spends a full day with you. Vanta saves me a lot of time by automatically gathering evidence.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

When I work on large organizations, it's difficult to scope properly the resources that will be pulled in by Vanta. So at the end, I spend a lot of time excluding resources from my tests because I couldn't scope the connection properly in the first place. Also, filtering on many pages does not work properly.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Vanta helps structure my compliance program by ensuring I don't miss tasks, automates evidence gathering, builds customer trust, simplifies audits, and distributes work by assigning controls to the right people.

  ### 23. Effortless Compliance Management, Stellar Support

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Osher L.

**Reviewed Date:** February 03, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I like how Vanta provides an easy overview of the control framework and makes test evidence collection straightforward. The audit onboard and console are also really easy to use, both for me and the editor. It's incredibly convenient that the system collects evidence and tests on the fly and through APIs, and it continuously monitors my current status. The initial setup was very easy, and the customer success team was very supportive throughout the process, helping build the identity compliance framework and onboard all the employees.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

I wish Vanta could provide much easier API integration for custom integrations. Also, it would be great if it could collect all the data from vendors in a smarter way, maybe using AI to gather initial public data automatically.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Vanta to get an overview of our control framework, ensure we're on track with controls and tests, and collect audit evidence. It's easy to use, continuously monitors our status, and collects evidence via API, streamlining compliance for EASER 2701 and HIPAA.

  ### 24. Effortless ISO Management with Vanta

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Conal M.

**Reviewed Date:** February 03, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I really like how Vanta makes ISO management easy for those without ISO experience. The system nicely guides you through the process. It also helps us cut our ISMS management time significantly by streamlining the process and offering help on points needing action. Vanta's AI is a really helpful tool, assisting us in drafting policies that we might have struggled to start and advising on adjustments tailored to our business.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

I think a single point place of action would help. Outstanding documents/policies/actions could all be stored in one place. For example, owners of controls and documents, rather than having to work through them, could all be stored in one area. Also, it would be good to see a training dashboard so we can easily see where people are falling behind, rather than having to find the specific control to then access the logs.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Vanta streamlines our ISO 27001 certification process, cuts ISMS management time, and guides those without ISO experience through the process. Its AI helps draft policies and offers advice, making it easier to manage documentation and security training.

  ### 25. Simplifies Compliance with User-Friendly Efficiency

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Anirudh S.

**Reviewed Date:** February 03, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I really like the ease of use of Vanta's platform. It helps me manage complex processes easily, saving me time and keeping things organized so nothing gets lost. I find it beneficial to track various controls and their statuses, which makes it easier to get certifications and provide evidence.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

I think the integrations and the user management are not very intuitive. Some of the integrations are intuitive, but setting up Astra security integration, for example, was not intuitive. The onboarding process was a bit complex, with a large number of tasks to complete. It would have been helpful to have sessions from Vanta's customer success team upfront to understand the product, but they came much later on.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Vanta to organize all tests and controls in one place and set up a trust center visible to clients. It saves me time by managing complex processes easily and tracking controls for certifications.

  ### 26. Intuitive and Efficient Compliance Management

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 20, 2025

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I like Vanta's user interface. It is intuitive and easy to add evidence to the compliance frameworks for the auditor. Vanta keeps us on top of our compliance requirements with its automated tests and alerting, making it easy to stay on top of it. It's easy to use and allows for efficient distribution of tasks to different company stakeholders. Also, the initial setup was very easy to implement. We integrate Vanta with our cloud infrastructure, like AWS.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

I have had experiences with auditors requiring additional evidence for compliance controls. Sometimes, meeting the requirements of the automated testing is not enough. Vanta could improve the experience by automatically detecting screenshots that are not going to be accepted by the auditor. For example, making sure that a 'timestamp' is included in the screenshot.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Vanta helps manage our HIPAA and SOC-2 compliance with automated tests and alerts, streamlining our compliance processes. Its intuitive user interface allows for effortless evidence collection and task distribution among stakeholders, making compliance management straightforward.

  ### 27. Perfect for Streamlining Compliance Efforts

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Faisal W.

**Reviewed Date:** February 02, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I like the automated flows, work assignment, and automated collection of information in Vanta. The automated evidence collection makes compliance a lot easier, especially for a small organization like ours aiming to adhere to complex frameworks like SOC 2. With Vanta's workflows and automated collection of evidence, along with AI analysis, coordinating work becomes so much easier given that we don't have a lot of employees. Plus, the initial setup was extremely easy, taking me less than an hour to connect to our critical systems and start collecting evidence.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

Compatibility with Safari and how some tests show failing even after remediation is done until you log in again for the next session. This is a minor inconvenience

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Vanta for automated evidence collection, making compliance with SOC 2 and complex frameworks easier for our small team. Automated workflows and AI analysis help coordinate work despite limited manpower, simplifying our compliance efforts.

  ### 28. Streamlined Compliance with Intuitive Features

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Chris E.

**Reviewed Date:** February 02, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I really appreciate the functionality and ease of use of Vanta, which is probably the highlight for me. It's an intuitive system that's easy to navigate. From a compliance perspective, it's very helpful to see an overlay of all vendors being used, discovering the vendors, and tracking the progress we're making towards SOC two compliance. I also really like the Slack integration, as it makes notifications easy to manage, and the automated alerting helps keep our small team on top of things. The initial setup was quite simplistic due to its ability to integrate with other applications through the API, and the robust documentation provides a step-by-step guide for integrating third-party apps.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

I really like the Slack integration, but it is missing some key functionality in my opinion. The Slack notifications go to the IT compliance and security teams, which is fantastic, but a lot of these need to be actioned by our teams to notify end users who may be out of compliance. It would be nice if Vanta could send those notifications in Slack directly to the users instead of to the intermediary teams.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Vanta for application discovery and maintaining compliance, especially with automated alerts and Slack integrations, which make it easy to manage as a small team.

  ### 29. Efficient in ISO 27001 Automation, User-Friendly Interface

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Professional Training & Coaching | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 21, 2025

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I like the number of integrations and how they cover the different controls of the ISO 27001 framework. It makes everything very simple. Also, the interface is very user-friendly and the artificial intelligence agent it has is very useful for answering questions related to the framework and the application.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

Yes, the part of policy management currently in the formula that we configured is by uploading the policy to the application, but we thought that having a system with established policies, we could add them there, that it would handle the versioning part, but it's not like that, we have to download the policy, update the version manually, upload it, and once there, approve it again. So the in-band approval process is a second step that doesn't end up being very useful, it's doing the work twice.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Vanta to automate the collection of evidence in the ISO 27001 program. It also centralizes many tasks, which is good for managing our workload.

  ### 30. Streamlined Compliance with Minor Integration Challenges

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ingo S. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 02, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I like the overview Vanta provides, especially the fact that it monitors compliance all the time. This is really helpful for reporting to the boards as a quick snapshot without getting into too much detail. The way it handles policy reapproval and conducts our security awareness training is great because I basically don’t have to chase anyone. It's nice to have a short but useful video for those who want to see it, ensuring that baseline compliance for all staff is taken care of without wasting my time. We use the Trust Center, which is really good for getting sales prospects up to speed and giving us a professional kind of front door for security. It also reduces my workload since I have to answer fewer questions because people can get the documents themselves. Having Trust Center access approval integrated with Slack is really useful for our globally distributed team as it allows someone on the sales team to quickly approve access in Slack rather than waiting for me.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

We don't use a lot of the add-ons in Vanta, like the Vanta AI agents, because we have another product for security questionnaire automation (SecurityPal). When we started, the risk and vendor management systems were underpowered. They've since relaunched as add-ons, but they're probably a bit out of our price range. We handle this in Notion databases where we have full control over metadata and filtering. Vanta's integrations with our hosting provider Heroku are not great (probably due to limitations of the Heroku API), so we have to do a lot manually in that area.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Vanta helps keep compliance activities on track for our distributed team with automated checks and custom documents. It streamlines monitoring compliance, aids in reporting, facilitates policy reapproval, conducts security awareness training, and integrates with Slack for trust center access, reducing my workload significantly.

  ### 31. A Game-Changer for Audit Automation

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Mayra F.

**Reviewed Date:** February 02, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I use Vanta daily and find it very easy to use; everything is clear, and I understood it within a week. It automates everything, which takes a huge amount of work off auditors like me. I appreciate how Vanta automates tests against clients' environments and pulls the relevant information immediately. It streamlines document management and evidence collection, significantly reducing the time teams spend chasing documentation and uploading files manually. I also love that Vanta is updated every month, always adding new tests and documents, so it's never static and is always innovating. I'd rate it a 10 out of 10 and consider it a game changer if everyone used Vanta.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

I'd like Vanta to publish a monthly roadmap of all upcoming implementations and changes. That way, we can track what's coming and avoid committing to something with clients prematurely, especially since updates roll out across all frameworks.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Vanta to automate tasks, reducing time spent collecting evidence for audits. It has useful integrations for environment testing and immediate information retrieval. It takes workload off auditors, streamlines document management, and is consistently updated with new tests and documents.

  ### 32. Simplifies Compliance for Small Teams

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Drew W.

**Reviewed Date:** February 02, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I like that Vanta is really easy to use. The UI makes a lot of sense, and everything just works, making it incredibly easy for our small team to manage things required for SOC 2 audits. Vanta gives us a checklist and the steps needed to achieve compliance, and I particularly like how it provides the Terraform code for infrastructure changes, making compliance much easier. The initial setup was incredibly easy, just involved receiving an email and signing in. Overall, it's really helpful for ensuring that things like hard drive encryption and screen lock are set up, making our work much simpler.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

One thing that's annoying is that almost every day, new vulnerabilities pop up that are not fixable, and Vanta still flags them. We have to manually click and acknowledge them when a fix is available, which could be made easier with an automatic triage feature. Also, when we run the job to check for vulnerabilities, it can take a long time without proper feedback on the progress. Sometimes it feels like we click the button and have to check back hours later, which isn't a great user experience if we're trying to get quick feedback on the state of our vulnerabilities.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Vanta makes it incredibly easy for our small team to manage the SOC 2 audit process, providing a checklist and steps to follow. It offers Terraform code for compliance changes, drastically reducing the time and effort needed, which would be overwhelming otherwise.

  ### 33. Streamlined SOC 2 Compliance with Robust Integrations

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Mariano Q.

**Reviewed Date:** February 02, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I like Vanta's UX, the idea of a centralized platform, and the integrations, especially the one with our cloud provider GCP. The integrations save time because they put all related checks in one place, so I don't have to collect information outside Vanta through PDFs, screenshots, etc. It automates all the required SOC2 tests and gives a holistic view of the certification status, making it easier to know when we are ready to get audited.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

Some integrations with Vanta are not fully baked and need more work. For example, with the Kandji integration, there were some tests that were never fixed on the Vanta side, even though they were resolved on Kandji.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Vanta makes getting all the paperwork and tests ready on one platform, automates all required SOC2 tests, and provides a holistic view of our certification status. It makes it easier to know where we are and when we're ready for an audit.

  ### 34. Streamlines Compliance but Needs Better Integration Design

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Sindri G. | Chief Technology Officer and founder , Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 02, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I appreciate how Vanta helps make the compliance journey, like for ISO 27001, more manageable and less of a hassle compared to my past experiences with other companies. I like the manageable workload it provides, which helps me prioritize and see the progress I'm making. The integrations with various systems are also good from a user's point of view, and the tests and online audits are highlights of using Vanta.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

The HubSpot integrations are kind of useless because I always have to do so much manual work when doing the audit. Also, as an integrator with their API, it's one of the most baffling bad designs we've ever seen, according to my developers. The initial setup was harder than I feel it could have been.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Vanta for compliance and ISO27001, making the journey less difficult compared to previous experiences. It helps me maintain a manageable workload, prioritize tasks, and track progress.

  ### 35. User-Friendly with Room for Enhanced Integrations

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Utilities | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 10, 2025

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I really like the ease of use and simplicity of Vanta. The system presents very few things on the screen, making it intuitive to understand. Whatever section you're in, it only focuses on that, which takes minimal training for our staff to use. Our entire company can utilize it, including sales staff who need to present documentation, and departments like HR, legal, and marketing. Even our engineers, with their more technical focus, can easily use the same tool with minimal training. It's really effective in helping us show compliance with particular items through simple steps.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

The integrations are not as expansive as other tools. Vanta's integration with our HR tool, like Ripple, is very light and can't track a lot of information back and forth. We end up using a lot of canned reports instead of having the integration automatically update. While Vanta works well with our AWS instance and other systems, they have limited integrations available, and the depth of integration is not as deep as with tools like MetrcStream, Archer, or ServiceNow.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Vanta to know what we need for certifications, as it breaks down ISO requirements and tracks vendor risks. We're excited about using Customer Commitments to manage SLAs and incident notifications effectively.

  ### 36. Revolutionized Our Compliance Process

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Kae M.

**Reviewed Date:** February 02, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I found going through our SOC 2 and ISO reviews with Vanta refreshingly straightforward. The platform kept everything organized, automated the evidence collection, and clearly highlighted what was completed versus what still needed attention. It removed a lot of manual work for me, like chasing screenshots and dealing with spreadsheets, since most of the evidence was there or clearly flagged. The auditor experience was smooth, with fewer back and forth questions and far less stress overall. Vanta helped us not just pass an audit, but made compliance feel manageable and repeatable. I also really like the service center for our customers and the automation of questionnaires. It's all very easy to use, and the initial setup was very easy.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

If you update evidence in one area, I would like it updated in all controls under all frameworks.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Vanta simplifies our SOC 2 and ISO reviews by organizing evidence, automating collection, and highlighting tasks needing attention. It reduces manual work, coordinates team efforts easily, and improves the auditor experience significantly, making compliance less stressful and more manageable.

  ### 37. Effortless Audit Management with Reliable Automation

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** erik j. | Senior Manager, IT, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 02, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I appreciate how Vanta makes presenting evidence to auditors a breeze and how it provides reminders for time-sensitive SLA deadlines, which could be overlooked if managed manually. I like the organization of all the evidence for each framework, which makes audits much easier. I find its automation impressive, as it connects with many of the vendors we do business with. I also enjoy that it integrates with Microsoft InTune and several of our larger vendors, providing near real-time status. The initial setup was very easy, with Vanta's help.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

The UI can get a little confusing sometimes, hard to remember where everything is located. Maybe it's just personal preference, but a particular dataset would be filed under a different section than I would have placed it under.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Vanta to compile and store evidence for SOC2 and PCI DSS audits. It makes presenting evidence easy and helps meet SLA deadlines with reminders. Its organization simplifies audits, and it integrates with vendors for near real-time status.

  ### 38. Brings Focus and Transparency to SOC 2 Compliance

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Steve F.

**Reviewed Date:** February 02, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I use Vanta for our first SOC 2 and it really helps with the problem of multiple priorities by bringing focus, visibility, and transparency across the compliance effort. I like the easy to understand guidance for each SOC 2 control. I also appreciate our CSM. They are knowledgeable in the compliance space as well as the Vanta platform.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

The morning "Vanta summary" email sometimes flags items that are not relevant to our SOC 2 effort. In the Engineering Summary section, my email says "16 tests need attention on Tests". When I click on the hyper-link, I am brought to a Vanta menu showing these failing 16 tests. However, most of those tests are not part of the SOC 2 framework. Once I filter on SOC 2, only a couple of those failing tests are relevant to our compliance framework.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Vanta helps solve the problem of multiple priorities by providing focus, visibility, and transparency in our compliance effort.

  ### 39. Perfect for passing SOC 2 audits

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Yulia f. | Project manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 23, 2025

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I like the convenience of Vanta’s dashboards, where the status and the amount of work ahead are always clear. I’m also impressed by the integration capabilities, including Jira and Google Workspace integrations for tracking user access. The ease of adding users and the guidance for each control, with instructions on how to complete it, also creates a valuable product experience.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

Nothing, hope they will add more integrations

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Vanta to complete SOC 2 audits. The product helps track and manage required controls, provides convenient dashboards, and integrates with services such as Jira and Google Workspace. It also makes it easy to add users and provides guidance with instructions for each control.

  ### 40. Great support for managing audit and security processes

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Molly I. | Project Coordinator , Non-Profit Organization Management, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 14, 2025

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

It's very intuitive and easy to understand. It makes tracking actions across a wide variety of platforms easy and efficient. I like the views to go through people's tasks and you can easily remind them from there.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

There are occasional issues with dates being off that need to be remedied.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It helps us to orgnaize and track our secuirty comlpliance procedures to ensure we can maintian our Soc 2 compliance.

  ### 41. Super simple way to stay compliant

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Financial Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 31, 2024

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

The thorough checklists of all the required actions that its users need to take to stay compliant, and consistent reminders to make sure they are executed. The basics of this product are built very solidly.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

Barely a dislike, but it misses a mobile app. That'll allow for stronger notifications for upcoming deadlines and tasks to be completed.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It is helping us track all the requirements for SOC 2 compliance monitoring period and beyond.

  ### 42. Streamlined SOC 2 Compliance, Easy to Use

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Dennis D. | Chief of Staff, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 02, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I like how Vanta keeps us organized with really clear action items and allows us to collaborate among teammates on complex and long timelines for projects involving many people. It's really the backbone for everything we do, ensuring that we stay compliant and our policies are up to date. Also, the initial setup was incredibly easy, very much plug and play.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

It's on the higher end of the market price wise. Functionally it's great, but sometimes it's a little unclear which collaborator should take which task, you can get a little bit of notification overload for your collaborators vs folks who are living out of Vanta for SOC 2

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Vanta to keep organized with files and compliance, providing clear action items. It supports collaboration on complex projects, essential for SOC 2 compliance. We switched from task managers as it was hard to organize without Vanta’s specialized functions.

  ### 43. Streamlines SOC2 Compliance with Ease

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 27, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I like that Vanta makes it easy to set and add new integrations with many products and tools. The way the tests are detected helps keep the source code not vulnerable too. It's pretty easy to keep track of everything, especially when we need to manage various services like AWS, Asana, Snowflake, and Google. Integrating other services like Snowflake was very straightforward.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

there's nothing I particularly dislike

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Vanta to track failing tests for SOC2 compliance, ensuring our infrastructure is secure by catching missing parts and setting up remediation. It easily integrates with various tools, helping us manage services like AWS and Snowflake while keeping the source code secure.

I like that Vanta is easy to use and user-friendly, plus it has a nice UI. The initial setup was very easy and user-friendly, and the support is great, which made it super easy to get started.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

Sometimes it's hard to know at a high level what you have to do when starting a new certification, like what a specific act entails. It's also challenging to understand what each certification or law is for and how much time it should take to complete based on your company.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Vanta for all compliance needs. It's easy to use, user friendly, and has a nice UI, making compliance management smoother.

**Reviewed Date:** July 07, 2026

I really value the alerting and monitoring features of Vanta, which are essential for knowing what we need to do. The clear dashboards and tasking are a big plus, giving us confidence that we'll have everything we need in place. These aspects make it very easy for us to monitor and track our program. Additionally, the integration with our cloud and software environments is beneficial. The initial setup was straightforward and seamless, making it easy to get policies and system descriptions in place.

N/A

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Vanta to track and manage our information security, ensuring compliance with clear dashboards and tasking, making it easy to monitor and stay updated.

  ### 47. Streamlined GRC Work but Integrations Need Improvement

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 12, 2025

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I enjoy how easy Vanta is to use, how seamless things are, and how easy it is to navigate. Vanta makes things seem a lot more streamlined and quicker. Everything is in one place, and it's a lot easier to navigate and manage a bunch of things simultaneously.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

Currently, a lot of the integrations have difficulty, especially with our GitLab, AWS, and Sentinel One integrations. There's some issues around data accuracy and reporting. I've raised this to Vanta many times, and there is no fix yet.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Vanta because it streamlines our GRC work in cybersecurity, making everything quicker and easier to manage by having it all in one place.

  ### 48. Effortless Auditing with Intuitive Integration

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Marcio E.

**Reviewed Date:** February 02, 2026

**What do you like best about Vanta?**

I find Vanta's GUI really easy to work through. It's pretty easy to understand and integrate. It makes going through audit items much easier, compared to other auditing products where it's just text and framework definitions.

**What do you dislike about Vanta?**

I find the comment section a little difficult to get to. It's not too bad, but it would be easier if comments were more easily visible and easier to get through. Right now, it takes like two or three clicks to get to the right comment if you're going through the GUI. It would be faster if we could access it a lot quicker, maybe by having a section for updated comments and treating those as a task list.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Vanta to track what's needed during audits and make sure everything is kept on the same page. It also helps track vulnerabilities, ensuring our tools leverage the same telemetry effectively.

Ease to get on track for the first cybersecurity certifications, clean navigation between menus, explicit tests and controls for each framework.

**What problems is Vanta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Automate compliance, perform technical tests on connected platforms.
