For the majority of use cases, DV certificates should serve your purposes well. You may find certain implementations or use cases still insist on OV or EV certificates and these can still be obtained via TCS (at an extra cost for EV), but we recommend using DV for most circumstances.
Why Not Just Use Let's Encrypt?
Let's Encrypt is a great free service and works well for many use cases, but has some limitations that a managed service like TCS can help with. This includes:
- Certificate life cycle management through an easy to use and read portal - any administrator can get a clear overview of ordered certificates and their lifespan.
- Ability to order multiple certificate types from one place.
- OV and EV as an option for the edge use cases.
- Support for IGTF certificates (cominging soon!).
- A support desk.
- No rate limits (Let's Enrypt limits the number of requests you can make in certain time periods).
- EU based terms and conditions and contractual terms negotiated for you.
