I know we all have to do the horrible and make the switch to SSL/Https. I have done it a few times and it looks like godaddy made an easier means to do so. Don't fall for it. It is just a new money model for godaddy. I talked with near 10 different techs (all of whom provide non identifying names -Dave, Paul, Mike and so on-) following their instructions to my grief. Following SLL techs advice will absolutely lead to expense, pain and humiliation. Their instructions will break your sites. The techs are trained to then take advantage of your confusion, a confusion they contribute to by a MESS of contradictory instructions. Good Luck if you make the mistake of thinking past experience means that Godaddy will take care of you. No longer true. Please share around when you find someone who actually knows what they are doing about SSL.

Anyone who applies for an EV SSL must pass a rigorous vetting process that no hacker or thief could survive. If you have an Extended Validation EV SSL Certificate, customers know you're legitimate.

Site is very easy to use. Only one things I don't like about godaddy is that renewal cost are too high.

I am never going to buy any product from godaddy again. Their customer care people dont know anything. They dont know the navigation in their own website.

Google Chrome is still not showing the Green Secure PadLock in the address bar. Mozilla shows Padlock but with caution Triangle in Yellow color. Still struggling to get Green Secured Padlock in the address bar with my website. As the hosting provider is HostGator, then Godaddy appears to be less interested in helping me when domain name is registered with GoDaddy and SSL is also issued by GoDaddy.

Got it for very cheap from GoDaddy for just 350 INR for 1 year and from next year it will be 4000 INR. But after adding https support to my website i can see that website loading has slowed down tremendously. I am not sure if its due to the SSL or in general!

Go Daddy tries but as the others way to complicated as a host - too many options and drag and drop doesn't really work on any of them,

Root Certificate Wrong - GoDaddy Denies Problem
January 9, 2017 Permalink

Overall Rating:
Product: Premium (EV) Certificate

As a previous reviewer stated "GoDaddy broke their certs with their shaky upgrade from SHA-1 to SHA-2." If you need PCI compliance the SHA1 certificate at the root causes a failure. GoDaddy Technical Support DENIES there is any SHA1 certs in the chain, even though any idiot with a browser can PROVE their root certificate is SHA1. Admit the problem and fix it... denying the problem exists is just idiotic, time consuming, and frustrating.

We hired an internet marketing company to rebuild our site as responsive, and upgrade us to an SSL site. They handled everything quickly and without any problems. The SSL cam from GoDaddy but the reseller/agency is E-Platform Marketing.

I did never asked for it to re-new. Highly irritated by the way Godaddy just take money without prior notification. They should wakeup.

I installed a code signing certificate into my software - but customers still got a 'dangerous i uncommon software' error message. It simply wasn't up to the task.

Comodo came close, but GoDaddy got it!

As explained on my review for COMODO, continued use of their SSL-certificate was up in the air (having been chosen as our website's temp-cert). Well, after checking out numerous SSL-services via cert-checking services, and after a few dozen chat-sessions & phone conversations with Sale's Reps & Techs (not to mention having the experience of having a COMODO SSL for several months), we made the choice to go with GODADDY's SSL certificate as our permanent one. The main reasons for this switch were that GODADDY's customer service was excellent (unlike Comodo's lack thereof), they gave us the option of different SSL-key lengths & algorithms, and having a 4 cert deep Trust Chain was like a cherry being placed on top. In summation, which COMODO is good as an SSL service, GODADDY has turned out to be GREAT!

Busted root cert migration

Product: Standard SSL Wildcard

GoDaddy broke their certs with their shaky upgrade from SHA-1 to SHA-2. To get any of the new certs to work, the client machine MUST BE UPDATED to get the updated root cert. This leaves all out of date software/OS/devices unable to use these certificates. They were not even included in the authority bundles with java until a year ago. These are useless, geotrust will replace them for free.

Our company has worked with GoDaddy for over 10 years. The level of service, and product quality is excellent. We've also worked with numerous others which cannot even come close to GoDaddy. Every client we acquire is encouraged to switch to GoDaddy, and all are happy and remain year after year.

SSL was easy!

I see a lot of reviews here about Godaddy as a whole, but since this is actually SSL focused, I decided to give my opinion. So basically it JUST WORKS, it was super fast and very straight forward. This is the first time I install an SSL so I can't compare it to others, but at least for me, the experience was great. Btw, I also moved my hosting out of Godaddy, so I only have this SSL I just bought from them... I would recommend it, and also recommend other reviewers to focus their reviews on what this site is about, which is definitely not about hosting. Good luck!

They are great to work with and very responsive and have a great product. I have a lot of Standard and Wildcard cert and have had really good luck with them. Also use Godaddy for our exchange UCC domain and everything worked great.
