codeBeamer ALM vs. Vanta

In my opinion codeBeamer is well suited for any activity where detailed tracking is needed with teams involved. It can be less suited for small projects which do not last long, or are not continuous, etc

Vanta seems excellent for startups, but I expect that they would be even more useful at bigger companies. I think it really helps people that haven't done SOC2 before. I also think it would help in monitoring compliance across teams with many users. If the budget is extremely tight, I think it would be possible to save money by not using it.

• Wiki.
• Users and teams.
• Works for teams scattered across the globe.
• Testing and coverage for releases.
• Integration with SVN.

• API driven capabilities offer a very easy way to connect your systems to their application.
• It was mostly intuitive to figure out what needed to be configured.
• I like how responsive they have been and how they have been able to outline the entire process for us from the start to the end.

• Search.
• Metric calculation.
• Would be nice that cB is a source of truth, i.e., that say SVN commit is done only from cB; know this is difficult to achieve.

• I'd love to see more options for integrations. ie a Datadog integration that checks on infrastructure monitoring.
• Providing a general area for document sharing.

Great to maintain for our SOC2 compliance and further compliance evolutions

Sometimes info in codeBeamer can be lost, in principle, if not well organized by the user, info can never be found, or can be forgotten about, etc

codeBeamer is by far better.

Vanta's reporting was far superior, the price was competitive but my engineers running the project said that working with vanta would save them significant amount of time. Secondly vanta had more integrations so they could plug directly into the systems we use!
