There's a second lesson for start-ups - if you can't buy or develop goodwill with your customers, just steal it from someone else. My experience(s) with Comodo

There's a second lesson for start-ups - if you can't buy or develop goodwill with your customers, just steal it from someone else.
My experience(s) with Comodo have been well short of awe-inspiring and their reputation certainly isn't great - to me, this is just another mark against them.
- seandougall 10y agoIndeed. I recently had my first two experiences acquiring and installing certificates, the first from Comodo and the second from Let's Encrypt. Comodo took two weeks of repeated attempts over multiple validation methods to get the damn thing issued. Let's Encrypt took less than a minute, even on a platform that doesn't officially support it. It seems Comodo is obviously lashing out because the only value their service provides is the (ultimately artificial) trust in their CA. And now there's a new player on the scene that not only is free, but provides more value in terms of ease of use and just as much trust.
