Re: SSL Certificate Comparisons

I have been quite happy dealing with Geotrust.  They use Equifax as their CA
so like Verisign it is a trusted root CA most people already have in their
browsers.  According to previous Netcraft surveys Geotrust has steadily been
increasing their market share.  Hopefully the competition will make Verisign
drop their prices.

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?
