We've not had any troubles with Thawte, even though they were acquired by Verisign.

  We switched to Geotrust from Verisign about a year ago.  Cut costs by over 80%.  Good web site, easy to manage, etc.

  Hello,



  We have always used Verisign certificates on our web servers but we are getting extremely frustrated with their 
pricing and billing issues.  We've been shopping around for other SSL certificate providers.



  Does anyone have any feedback on your experience with other SSL providers?
