    To manage users, go to the admin dashboard, here is a section for users. In this users section here you can see which users are configured and you have the ability to suspend a user. If you want to edit or add users, you need to go to the Organization section, then click on another user section there, which then gives you the ability to edit or add users.

    If you are working with payments and you don`t want to store that kind of data to avoid a lot of strict requirements and headaches with tight processes, strict security, encryption and everything else you can leverage VGS platform to greatly reduce the work needed to enable payments in your system. They also provide tokenization for some other kinds of data but we currently do not use them. VGS platform also provides a product for compliance and controls (VGS Control) which helps you get ready and maintain compliance in your organization.

    The support is pretty decent, sometimes take a little bit o time to solve things (not critical things) but that is part of the ticketing/email async communication so its fine. All the times I had to contact support a got my issue solved and a lot of attention from the support team to help solving the issue.

    [The] customer support is quite good. Cost also has another point to add, along with process integration and ease of using new tool.

    We evaluated Drata as an alternative for VGS Control, but VGS platform control integrates a lot of controls around VGS itself and also with Cloud Infra that we use, which makes the process faster. Also keeping everything with the same vendor makes things easier to manage.
