Entrust SSL Certificate Reviews

Our company had been using Entrust for a while managing certificates independently, which meant each cert request had to be verified. The process was fairly simple and well rehearsed, but we usually spent about 3 days through the manual verification process. After some review (and once we qualified with the right # of certs), we switched to the online self management system offered by Entrust - and now we can literally revoke, renew, and buy new certificates at a moment's notice. Being a small organization, the slight decrease in security (by no longer verifying per cert) is a small risk compared to the massive return in efficiency and confidence. Entrust's online management system gives you a one-stop-shop for certificate statuses, management, and actions so you're never caught off guard when a cert is to expire since you can actually see all your certs in one place and plan for expiry periods through the year(s). Additionally, you don't have to store certs or cert information anywhere since it's available through their system, not to mention avoiding having a secondary tracking system. Highly recommended!
