Drata review.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Drata mainly to handle our compliance. It helps companies like us maintain certifications like SOC 2 and ensures they don't get overlooked. It also helps us keep our policies up to date and does background checks for all our staff. It is great; the user interface is easy to use.

Pros

  • SOC 2 certifications.
  • Background checks.
  • Keeps our policies up to date.

Cons

  • I think it has a great user interface, but I recently had trouble uploading our updated policies. It took me a while to navigate and how to upload it but i was eventually able to do it. I would like an easier, more straightforward way to do it next time.

Return on Investment

  • It is definitely worth having it. As I said, its positive impact is that it gives us confidence that it is being monitored and not overlooked.
