ThermoDust 12 Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 I just made the switch to using SSL for Emby and wanted to help anyone who is looking for an SSL certificate. I didn't want to spend a lot, as you know some are like $100 a year. I found this place https://www.ssls.com/ssl-certificates/comodo-positivessl They are cheap, $5 a year, but it is a slight pain in the butt for using with Emby. If you go with them you will need to convert the certificate to a compatible version. Plus if you are only running a sub-domain or domain without a web host or e-mail provider like me it is a bigger pain in the butt. For the price you cannot go wrong but be ready to spend an hour or two setting it up with their technical support team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZacharyS 0 Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 If you want free ssl certificate on trial base then go for rapidssl, geotrust, thawte certificate authority but if want to purchase ssl certificate from well known provider then go with this https://www.clickssl.net/ where found great customer support for my ssl certificate purchase.

kevinmitnick 0 Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 The Certificate Authorities such as Symantec, Comodo, GeoTrust, Thawte, DigiCert, GlobalSign, GoDaddy, RapidSSL etc. issues an SSL Certificate for websites. You can purchase any SSL Certificate from their. You can compare SSL Certificate Authority with their reviews at here - https://aboutssl.org/ssl-certificate-reviews Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doonga 17 Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 Let's Encrypt and SSLMate are both very good, the latter isn't free but they have automated renewals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harnold 0 Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 I had a great experience with Comodo brand, so would suggest for the Comodo and it is very cheap compared to other brands. I get one article where they had the list of providers of comodo positive SSL certificate whos starting price starts from approx $7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neik 834 Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 What are the benefits of using one payed SSL cert instead of the Let's Encrypt ones? In the past I guess wildcard certs were one but afaik in the meantime they are also available with Let's Encrypt - correct me if I am wrong!

mastrmind11 717 Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 What are the benefits of using one payed SSL cert instead of the Let's Encrypt ones? In the past I guess wildcard certs were one but afaik in the meantime they are also available with Let's Encrypt - correct me if I am wrong! Likely people don't want to be bothered to have to renew the cert every 30 days (or whatever renewals are now), even though it's simple enough to automate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkassassin07 411 Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 (edited) You just have to decide if saving couple min of your time 4 times a year is worth the cost of a paid cert Edited August 9, 2018 by darkassassin07 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swynol 375 Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 (edited) Lets Encrypt but you have to renew every 90 days. can be done automatically. Also LE will be supporting Wildcard certs soon also zeroSSL is free but uses lets encrypt. Edited August 10, 2018 by Swynol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neik 834 Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Also LE will be supporting Wildcard certs soon Aren't they already supported by them? I thought I already read about it a couple of weeks ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swynol 375 Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 (edited) Aren't they already supported by them? I thought I already read about it a couple of weeks ago. originally it was meant to be Jan 18. They then delayed until March i think it was. Just checked now and although it says -Update, April 27, 2018 ACME v2 and wildcard support are fully available since March 13, 2018. I think there was issue which were resolved in June. So Wildcards should be a thing now! makes life a little easier, although I now use Cloudflare certs between user and cloudflare and then lets encrypt between cloudflare and my servers. EDIT. read a bit more. looks like wildcards are only available using DNS verification, which means it alot harder to automate a renewal compared to TXT verification.
