What we do
Yes: the 24-hour, 72-hour and final-report clocks from the moment you became aware, the NIS2 and GDPR clocks on their own pages, and the notification drafted in the product from the record it already holds.
our pageWhat Vanta's page says
Logging, not clocks: "Log incidents, map them to DORA requirements, and prepare for advanced resilience testing so you're always ready to report and respond." No deadline and no drafted notification on the DORA or NIS 2 pages.

our pageWhat Vanta's page says
Yes, from a vendor inventory with templates: "Vanta discovers shadow IT via IdP/SSO and device signals, inventories vendors, and helps you populate the Register of Information using ESA-aligned templates."

our pageSpreadsheet importImport from spreadsheets, every row confirmed by its ownerStandardOS:YesImport, every row confirmed by its ownerVanta:Not statedSpreadsheets as the problem; no import
What we do
Yes: drop the Statement of Applicability, the risk register and the policies you keep; every row is staged, a person ticks what is written, and the rest is built.
our pageWhat Vanta's page says
Spreadsheets appear as the problem a customer had, in that customer’s words: "Things were kept in spreadsheets and in people’s heads, making it very difficult to juggle multiple large-scale compliance audits." An import is not described on the pages read.
