Comodo has now become the No 1 company in the High Assurance Certificate Market worldwide.
There are two main markets in the SSL business.
Organisationally validated and Non Validated Certificates.
Verisign as a Verisign brand purely sells Validated Certificates. No other company was able to challange Verisign in the Validated Certificates market. Not Thawte, Not Geotrust and certainly not Godaddy. These companies offer cheap certificates that are not validated, hence able to gain market share quickly, but never really threaten Verisign’s core business. .
Enter Comodo….
Comodo has now taken over from Verisign as the No 1 provider of High Assurance Certificate Provider. Not only has Comodo claimed the No 1 position, but Comodo beat Verisign in their own game of “Brand Awareness”. Just look at Google Trend to see who has a more sought after brand according to Google . Remember the days of Verisign saying you should buy from them because they have brand awareness…..well gone those days….now there is Comodo………its not Verisign or Comodo proclaiming they are the bigger brand…but a third party….Google…
So Comodo has more sought after brand and is No 1 provider of High Assurance Certificates.
Of course its been hard work with dedication of around 700 Comodo employees to make it all happen…..
but wait…..
The work of “Creating Trust Online” has just began……
