Featured Reviews

Francois Gotti - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
Adam Goldstein - PeerSpot reviewer
Automates certificate management across platforms and has enhanced integration support
Certificate Manager excels in automating certificate rotation and deployment but could enhance its offering by improving support for hardware security modules like Fortanix and providing more advanced, out-of-the-box integrations with public certificate authorities for DNS re-verification. Currently, the yearly DNS verification required by certificate authorities necessitates manual intervention, hindering full automation. This limitation, however, is not unique to Certificate Manager, as most tools lack the API integration necessary to automate the verification process with certificate authorities. Until such integration is achieved, the added security layer of domain verification will continue to pose a challenge for fully automated public certificate management.
