Osano vs. Vanta

Osano is great for a full suite of websites to manage. Agencies and companies with many websites to attend to are a good match for Osano's capabilities. Websites that run a lot of cookies and scripts (aka anything WordPress) are good candidates for this service. It is also useful for managing user data, although I do not leverage that feature in my own use.

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.

• Improves the product regularly
• Easy to manage the cookies and scripts
• "Blocklist" feature is handy for spamy scripts still lurking on old sites.

Incentivized

• 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.

Incentivized

• [I] would like to have more details on what the scripts/cookies are for (it isn't always clear).
• The step-by-step process of classifying scripts and saving vs. publishing is clunky and unclear.
• Some [of the] naming conventions aren't intuitive - compliance mode, strict, passive, etc.

Incentivized

• 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.

I haven't used any other products like Osano before.

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

• + [We] haven't had any compliance issues.
• - When adding new scripts to the website, I (me, specifically) need to remember that I'll need to classify them before the scripts will work. [It is] not streamlined for other people on my team.
• + [There are] generally little-to-no issues, which is good.

Incentivized

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