the right certificate for me

If you want to protect a shop site, our Silver, Gold and Platinum product lines are the right choice in most cases. The choice between Silver, Gold and Platinum lies in the higher coverage from older browsers and mobile devices to the Platinum product line. The bigger your shop is, the more likely it is that a visitor with an older browser is accessing it, in case of doubt check your web statistics for details. If you want a green address bar and the direct display of your identity in the browser, we recommend our Extended Validation certificates, which are currently only available for organizations with an entry in a public register.

We recommend Lite, Bronze and Limitbreaker if you have an intranet site that is not public, so you can do without the identity check of the “higher” product lines. In this case, the Limitbreaker product line gives you the highest possible coverage of a weakly validated certificate and is therefore particularly suitable for sites that are accessed via mobile devices. The bronze cover is a bit weaker, but the products are a bit cheaper and also available in a wildcard version. Lite is suitable if you know the expected visitors exactly and can assume that they either use the listed browsers or do not further interfere with an error message in an unsupported browser. This usually applies to administrative accesses such as Confixx or Plesk.

Of course we are happy to advise you in detail by phone, web or e-mail.
