OV Validation is a mess, no one cares about the customer I have ordered an S/Mime certificate from DigiCert. In order to be able to carry out the validation, a CertCentral account was set up. I have not heard anything more from this company. They are neither interested in the customer nor in his order. After 8 days I cancelled the whole thing, no validation team ever got in touch with me to even carry out the order. Automated orders work. But as soon as someone has to do something, everything falls apart. Never again.

Customer beware! Stay far away from Digicert Stay far away from this company. Chats go around in circles and email replies are copy/paste without them even reading the email. Cert company verifications supposedly are only done by telephone now, even though their documentation gives you multiple ways to verify your company they will put you in an endless generic email loop that will never end. Very sad the way they treat long term companies.

University IT Admin Loves DigiCert I was an admin for a Utah university's office of IT that used DigiCert for our digital certificates. Anytime we had an outage related to our certs they were there to help and quickly resolved the issue.

In my opinion it's not worth the hassle… For me it's not worth the hassle! It was the worst on-boarding experiences I have had in a long time. They try to make you contact some platforms I had never heard of before to update information like your phone number. It's 2023 and there are official business registration sites like companies house in the UK, just so you know DigiCert team. Maybe they should check their documentation of platforms that they can trust rather than trying to make the customer update some information on some private websites. Who even thought a phone number is a great way to validate a business? So many things were strange about it all that I got my order cancelled and refunded.

They tried to upsell to something our… They tried to upsell to something our client didn't need, and then we went through a bunch of emails that were completely unnecessary rather than just letting us make the purchase. We'll be going elsewhere - they're a waste of time.
