Francois Gotti - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Infrastructure Engineer at IQEQ
Automation has streamlined certificate workflows and reduced human errors significantly
We have discussed with them the need for better integration with APIs, including specific definitions and business cases. We would benefit from templates for specific APIs that need to connect with external vendors or integrate directly with our backend. This feature is currently in their development pipeline. Another improvement area is the integration with automation, specifically simplifying the ACME services they offer to work without an agent. Currently, every backend machine requires an agent for ACME services. This improvement will become crucial in the next two years when public certificates must be reduced from one year to 47 days, which presents a significant challenge for us.

Have experienced several challenges while managing certificate lifecycle processes
The renewal function and automated certificate renewal are very helpful for our operations. AWS Certificate Manager provides central control of certificate lifecycle management, which helps to improve security. It streamlines the process and reduces human error. I use ACM Private Certificate Authority for additional security measures. I see benefits of using AWS Certificate Manager in integration with AWS for secure data transmission. I see a positive impact in managing SSL and TLS certificates, which simplifies compliance and reduces risk.

"The AWS Certificate Manager's technical support team is sometimes unavailable."
"One potential improvement could be enabling the extraction of the certificate as a file to be used outside of AWS, even with an additional charge."
