 | View Full Version : GeoTrust FreeSSL Site, Chained SSL product ($25) is the same as InstantSSL GeoTrustCEO 09-18-2002, 08:45 AM GeoTrust signed an agreement with Baltimore technology to offer chained ssl certs (same cert as comodo instantSSL - chained to the same Baltimore Root) from the freessl.com web site. The certs will retail for $25 a year starting Oct 1st.. I think this gives the low priced segment a great chained cert alternative... Regards, Neal UH-Matt 09-18-2002, 09:53 AM "chanied to the same Baltimore Root" what exactly does that mean ? I can buy a functional shared ssl cert for $25 a year ? cascompany 09-18-2002, 11:10 AM Is it compatible with IE 5.x & NS 4.x ? or just IE 5.01 and up ?? Please tell me, as the price is very interesting, not just for me, but for my clients too! :) Regards. Andrew 09-18-2002, 02:55 PM I'm curious about the compatibility as well. :) Marty 09-20-2002, 12:17 PM Since it uses the Baltimore Root as the trust cert, it will have same compatibility as the InstantSSL cert from Comodo, which is: IE 5.00+ NS 4.x+ Opera 5+ AOL 5+ GeoTrustCEO 09-30-2002, 12:05 PM This product is now live at freessl.com -- a day early!!

We are seeing quite a few folks get our chained certs for $25 (the same certs that Comodo sells on their site for $49!!). However, the freeSSL certs are still the most popular on freessl.com..... ljprevo 10-11-2002, 09:01 AM Originally posted by GeoTrustCEO Thanks for the responses here and on FreeSSL.com...

How long will that price stay that way? What about verification. The last cert I went to buy Comodo gave me a tad bit of hassle. $25 is a great price, esp for a Baltimore chained cert. |
