They are trusted just as well as GoDaddy is. If you're just using a regular cert, there's no reason not to use Let's Encrypt at this point. The 90 day thing is solved by following https://certbot.eff.org/lets-encrypt/centosrhel7-apache.html (assuming you're using CentoS 7.)

It's less work than going through the GoDaddy process.

Im no webdude is the main reason. I know alot of people use it, phishermen love them. Theyre "trusted, but not verified" which, to no webdude me, says "IT WILL BECOME UNTRUSTED". I hate godaddy, but theyre not likely to become untrusted, so its not something id have to deal with with little to no knowlege. plus I dont understand this 90 day thing

Our current cert for our billing server (powercode) is about to expire. For some time web browsers have been throwing up the insecure flag, probably needed to update it.

What does a guy need in a certificate these days? godaddy is where we have it from, they have all kinds of options like green bar guarantee cert, etc.

I have thought about getting one thats good for more than one page, just to get rid of the annoying security screen on our managment port and mobile. but the wildcard cert seems more pricey than id prefer for something thats just convienient rather than needed
