Vanta does not publish a price. Quotes run from around USD 10,000 a year for a single framework to USD 80,000 and beyond, driven by your employee count and how many frameworks you need. Here is the full picture, including the line items that never appear in the first conversation.
Vanta does not publish a price. Every deal is quoted by sales against your employee count, the frameworks you need and the add-ons you take. Public procurement data puts the median contract near USD 20,000 a year, with quotes running from roughly USD 10,000 for a single framework at seed stage to USD 80,000 and beyond for multi-framework enterprise programs. Each additional framework is a separate line item, and the audit itself is never included.
Early-stage companies taking their first certification.
Scaling companies running more than one framework.
Large organisations with complex programs.
Free for 2 users, then EUR 79 per user per month. Every framework, every module and the full API are included at every size, so the only variable is how many people need a seat.
Vanta prices on your company headcount. CSFaaS prices on the people who actually open the platform. A 200 person company usually runs its GRC program with a compliance lead, a handful of control owners and an auditor, not 200 licences. You pay for those seats, and the first two are free.
CSFaaS cost by number of platform users. All 40+ frameworks, every module and the API included at every size.
| Platform users | Billable seats | Per month | Per year |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5 users | 3 | EUR 237 | EUR 2,370 |
| 10 users | 8 | EUR 632 | EUR 6,320 |
| 25 users | 23 | EUR 1,817 | EUR 18,170 |
| 50 users | 48 | EUR 3,792 | EUR 37,920 |
| 1 or 2 users | 0 | Free | Free |
Yearly figures use the annual rate of EUR 790 per seat, which saves about 16 percent against monthly billing. Past roughly 60 platform users, ask us for an Enterprise quote: at that scale SSO, advanced connectors and a dedicated instance usually matter more than the seat count.

Vanta ships NIS2 and DORA mappings now, and we are not going to pretend otherwise. What it does not ship is Belgium's CyberFundamentals framework as a gradable assessment: the Basic, Important and Essential assurance levels, the official CCB workbook in and out, and the separate documentation and implementation maturity scores that an assessor actually reads.
CSFaaS ships all of it, in English and French, because CyFun is the route most Belgian and Benelux organisations take to demonstrate NIS2 readiness. That is the difference between a framework you can point at and a framework you can be graded on.
A comparison page that only flatters its author is worth nothing. These are the reasons to pick Vanta over CSFaaS, written by us.
None of the vendors on this page publish a price list, so the figures are ranges taken from public procurement data and the vendors' own pages, last checked in August 2026. Treat them as a budgeting guide, not a quote. Your own quote is the only number that counts.
