Straightforward tool - organize everything needed
What do you like best about the product?
Drata successfully automates internal control verification for audit initially and ongoing. It nearly does the job of a full time junior level GRC focused employee. Certainly makes my life easier - I use it at least every week. Also, you can re-scan on demand after you fix something, which is more than other tools I've used in the past can say. It's simple to implement on your cloud resources. Customer support is responsive and helpful from the initial engagement onward.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the error messages on why a given control is failing could be more explanatory. The platform takes about a week to learn to navigate but works well once you know how. It doesn't integrate with the most common ADP implementation but hopefully that will change soon.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Gain initial SOC 2 compliance. We wouldn't be able to even come close this year were it not for Drata.

Great Platform for Enabling Constant Compliance
What do you like best about the product?
Drata enables "continuous compliance." This has shown itself to be very helpful in practice. When working on SOC2 at prior companies we would often find issues and gaps during the Audit or as we generated populations for the audit. Drata's constant checks for compliance allows us to show auditors a track record of continual work on our compliance journey and allows us to find and fix gaps and deviations without being already in the room in front of an auditor.
I also have had great experience with their customer support and their AI chatbot. The chatbot is able to understand our internal policies and procedures and generate adhoc answers to audit questions that pull from our actual policies. Customer support has also been able to go the extra mile to diagnose indepth issues with how their platform was interpreting our cloud setup and provide pointers on how to adjust our Azure settings to make them more secure.

What do you dislike about the product?
Drata sometimes can feel like a game of "whack-a-mole." The graphs show a track record overtime per control and as a company grows it will get harder and harder to show "constant" compliance. Invariably some user is always going to be late on their training or an engineer will create an improper resource in the cloud and cause a permanant blemish on the record over time. I'm not sure how to make it work but being able to show constant forward progress would be more advantatageous versus showing all the red marks where we failed for a day.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Drata gives us a single pane of glass view of our security posture across all the tooling that we use accross the enterprise. Without Drata it would be impossible to go through the dozen pieces of our environment and ensure that our teams are following the policies and procedures that the company requires. Drata removes the embarrassment of having to find those defecits with the auditors in the room.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before Drata, our evidence collection was manual and time-consuming. Drata integrates directly with many of our key systems and offers a centralized place to upload and update evidence. They also provide a network of inexpensive but good auditors.
One stop shop for compliance
What do you like best about the product?
I think the most useful things about drata are its intergrations and its structure, you can link so many systems and use it as not just a one time thing during audit season, but you can use it to continously track and monitor compliance and allow your company to maintain a strong security posture. Its also incredibly easy to use especially if you are a company without concrete policies set or you need to sharpen up existing ones.
What do you dislike about the product?
The drata agent which helps monitor device compliance for your users sometimes struggles to pick up certain types of software, but that can be solved with a couple of screenshots and a few button presses
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Drata is helping us solve our issue of not having a full picture of our security, it allows us to see and monitor employees and make sure they have acknowledged everything they need to, it lets us perform vendor reviews, it lets us handle risk management without being split between 5 different products. It makes audits easier because all the evidence is in one place and you can organise yourself accordingly, you're no longer hunting for that one random document for 10 minutes. It also provides the framework and structure needed to pursure other standards and frameworks, it gives confidence of being able to successfully pass an audit.
