service perfect, support mediocre. not much more to tell.. support felt like talking to a robot or someone who just uses pre-written answers - but it didnt really feel typical AI-ish.

Excellent customer service experience.

After purchasing an SSL certificate I realized that I forgot to cover a part of the domain, I contacted support and they quickly helped me through issuing a new certificate with the additional fields covered at no additional cost.

I am most impressed with the service I received from Alex at ZeroSSL. Thank you Alex. Great experience.

Once installed the SSL works…

Once installed the SSL works faultlessly; perfect.
However, installing on a windows server is pure hell.
The company needs to create an easier complier/converter to transform their cert into one that windows can read. (Includes the private key)
They provide instructions, but you need to be a true programmer to convert it.

Had forgotten to cancel my subscription…

Had forgotten to cancel my subscription so my card failed from the virtual card I used, they sent me a notice that my service could be interrupted if I didn’t update my card. I responded and said we didn’t need the certificate since I had migrated the site and had forgotten to cancel. They were very helpful and just took the cancellation at the date we intended to cancel. Lot of places would say you owe and hounded you for payment (like Thumbtack). I’d recommend ZeroSSL on that cooperative experience alone.

Great service and quick respons

Good to mention: we are a non-profit organization from the Netherlands. We have been using SSL for years with great satisfaction. This month we have a project for which we need 1 additional SSL. ZeroSSL has been kind enough to provide it to us free of charge. Very happy with that. Also the friendliness of the employees ensures that we will not leave ZeroSSL.

Poor service and scammy at that

Poor service and scammy at that. If you delete or revoke an SSL you don't get another allotted until that one expires. It's revoked essentially deleted. Yet im required to keep paying for it the remainder of the year. They did graciously... Offer for me to upgrade to a higher plan. This company belongs in the depths.

Thank you for your feedback.

We understand your frustration, and we apologize for any inconvenience caused. Our business model operates on a subscription basis, and once 1-year certificates are issued, costs at the Certificate Authority must be covered. It's important to note that revoked certificates within a subscription framework follow this model, and the slot is "blocked" until the expiration date. We strive to provide solutions through our customer service team, especially in cases of one-time mistakes or valid reasons for revocation. We appreciate your understanding.

If you have further concerns or require assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out to our support team.
