Drata is the lifeboat to a drowning compliance team
What do you like best about the product?
1. Drata's compliance automation is a game changer. The available integrations allow a small compliance team to scale to an unlimited size organization. For example, vulnerability scanning, device monitoring, data security testing, policy, network infrastructure, risk assessment, and the list goes on. These were previously controlled and documented in independent places and my compliance team 1) struggled to manage all of the compliance evidence and 2) "pushed" the information to the SOC 2 auditor. Drata consolidates this into one portal and the auditor has on demand access. This truly is automated compliance.
2. Live chat support, compliance library, policy templates, risk assessment guide. The provided tools help you effectively set up a compliance program.
3. My vendor rep has been extremely helpful and available throughout the process. We meet every two weeks to ensure we are progressing sufficiently. But also, I appreciate that she understands everyone works at their own pace so is not pushing us if not necessary.

The vendor management functionality is lacking. Specifically, the questionairre function is very limited and not very useful.

An Excellent Product
What do you like best about the product?
As a one-person team for our GRC at my organization, Drata has become a daily essential tool for me to maintain our compliance and readiness. Drata is easy to use, integrates well with our major providers like AWS, has amazing customer support, and a fairly painless implementation process. I can sincerely say that our small organization would not be able to handle all the necessary requirements of compliance without the software and Drata support.
What do you dislike about the product?
Integration with AWS and other items can be your greatest uplift when purchasing the product, as well as getting used to the numerous Controls can be a bit overwhelming, but once you get used to it, everything is pretty straight-forward.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Everything that has to deal with a GRC program for a small organization. I use drata for our SOC 2 Type 2 compliance needs, risk assessment and analysis, and keeping track of our annual evidence for our audits.

Seamless Compliance Management with Exceptional Support
What do you like best about the product?
We’ve been impressed by how intuitive and user-friendly Drata’s platform is. The onboarding process has been a breeze, and the step-by-step guidance helped us quickly set up compliance controls without feeling overwhelmed. The integrations with our existing tools (like AWS, Google Workspace, and Slack) were straightforward, and being able to continuously monitor our compliance status in real time has made our lives much easier.
Another standout has been their customer support. We recently set up a custom domain for our Public Trust page, and Drata’s team (specifically Christobal) was very responsive and knowledgeable, helping us troubleshoot DNS records in real time. Their attention to detail and willingness to go the extra mile made the entire process stress-free.

What do you dislike about the product?
While Drata’s feature set is robust, there is a slight learning curve when it comes to fully leveraging all of its advanced features. Also, one specific area for improvement is the Trust Center requests workflow. We’d love to see tighter integration with tools like Slack—for instance, automatic notifications or messaging capabilities for incoming Trust Center requests so our team can respond quickly without leaving our primary communication tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Drata is helping us centralize and streamline our compliance processes across multiple frameworks—including CCPA, GDPR, and SOC 2—so we no longer have to juggle multiple, disjointed tools or spreadsheets. By automating evidence collection and providing real-time monitoring of our controls, Drata saves us significant time and resources while ensuring we remain audit-ready. This unified approach not only reduces our operational overhead but also boosts trust with customers who need transparency into our compliance posture.
