Where Panorays is strong

Where it falls short

The evidence substrate is questionnaire responses rather than document extraction. Evidence decays implicitly, not on an explicit curve.

Common questions

Honest answers.

Should I replace Panorays with TrustVendor?
For most organizations, the answer is no — at least not initially. Panorays's workflow features complement TrustVendor's evidence layer. The fastest sale is coexistence: keep Panorays for what it does well, add TrustVendor for document-based evidence, change detection, and relationship-aware scoring. Many customers run both.
How does TrustVendor handle the same vendors Panorays already rates?
TrustVendor monitors the same vendor population through a different signal set: trust centres, subprocessor pages, SOC 2 reports, SEC filings, CT logs, and regulatory disclosures. Where Panorays asks "what does this vendor's internet footprint look like?", TrustVendor asks "what does this vendor claim in writing, is it backed by evidence, and what changed?" Both questions matter.
Can TrustVendor ingest my Panorays data?
Yes. TrustVendor accepts external scores as signals, so your Panorays rating appears alongside TrustVendor's posture and assurance scores as one of many inputs. This means the score you already pay for becomes part of a richer picture rather than being abandoned.
