Good management and pricing but not great for enterprise environments

In a high-density location, we're running into connectivity drops. There may be too many rouge devices broadcasting, and the devices is getting interference from another channel. The only to fix this is to reboot and we need something that reboots on the fly. We also need better security for VLANs and VPNs. There are issues with certain Apple devices. Technical support is not very helpful. The initial setup, which seemed straightforward at first, had to be redone. This may not have been the fault of the product. We're not sure what went wrong.

Compliance workflows have become organized and automation supports ongoing healthcare audits

There are always tons of rooms for improvement for Vanta. I kind of exaggerated a little bit about the policy control. I don't really love the way they handle the revision management of that feature. If I'm on V1 of the policy document and I make some changes to it, then I get rid of V1 and then I re-upload V2. It's not that it keeps a running history of each of the different revisions. A little bit of an issue with that, but workable. I don't really have any negative complaint right now that would be worthwhile expressing. It's just that there's a lot of features. The UI is not super intuitive, but now that I've worked with it for a couple of years, I know how to navigate and get around. Initially, it was a little bit of a struggle understanding how these things would all work.

Cons

"There are issues with certain Apple devices."

"It's stable, but it depends on the office and location."

"I would tell others looking into using Vanta to use it for HITRUST E1 and I1 assessments, as the R2 assessments are still a work in progress."

"Scalability could be improved."

"Permissions for platform users have been an issue. We've had to give admin access to Vanta for another team member to view all items."

"Failed tests for device CVEs seem to be cumulative, meaning I have to clear all CVEs before the test will pass, which makes it difficult to resolve the test before the next round of CVEs are published."

"There are connection problems about 50% of the time because of the automated evidence collection."

"There is a delay with customer support and they are unsure of the answers we need."

"The main area for improvement in Vanta is the user interface's refresh rate."

"Currently, Vanta's user access review module is still in development, and we've been giving them continuous feedback to help them improve that."
