Diligent One Platform vs. Vanta

Product is a great tool to serve as a central point to compile and document sox controls. This allows transparency across the team and teammates to edit and view progress. The tool also provides an interface that will make it easy for the internal audit team to track and compile control requests. I particularly like how it lets all of the control owners take ownership of their controls. I am currently exploring some of the advanced tools that support testing and the accuracy and completeness of our data, which i'm very excited to explore.

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.

• HighBond is great for managing requests, to do’s, and review notes
• HighBond is generally flexible with the configuration and terminology you can use.
• HighBond is a good tool for centralizing risks, controls, test plans, and procedures in a framework that allows you to standardize its usage.

• 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.

• The current setup does not have a risk management option.
• There is not an easy way to catalog all audits and then cycle through them.
• The set up of tabs within a project can be a bit cumbersome and excessive.

• In my opinion, they make it very hard to contact them when you need something.
• In my experience, they write their contracts to make it difficult to cancel service.
• In my experience, they have no policy for refunds in addition to their [...] contacts.

Great to maintain for our SOC2 compliance and further compliance evolutions

HighBond by Galvanize support has some of the best and fastest support that I have experienced. Though we only contact them through emails, they were quick to provide insightful information about our problems. Whenever we email them about an issue, they would be able to reply in less than an hour, ready and prepared with useful solutions to address the issue.

I was not involved in the implementation, but i do think the interface works well and is a great tool to centralize our compliance program. I'm currently in the process of exploring many of the advanced features and using the Diligent Academy to learn about some of these exciting features to add value to our organization. I recently attended a CPE and was very impressed with the presenters and their energy and knowledge of the product

Pretty seemless and did it almost entirely myself

Diligent Highbond stacks up somewhat poorly against our other tools. In addition to what was included above, we use some smaller tools that fulfill many of the gaps left by Diligent Highbond. We have since started to move away from Diligent Highbond. Alteryx is better at processing data and their server tool can be used to publish results for review.

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!

Works as intended

• It has saved me time generating status reports
• It has saved me time in coordinating with others to obtain information, since it tracks requests and sends reminders
• It saves time with to dos and open reviews to keep track of tasks to be completed

• We were able to close contracts because we had our SOCII compliance in place
• SOCII certification process was reduced by at least 80%
