Transition Year

Thanks to COVID-19, 2020 was a transition year for DigiCert, CEO John Merrill said.

“We were able to functionally work from home pretty quickly, and fortunately in the digital business you can do that more easily,” he said. “The second thing we had to do is focus on a tremendous migration. We had over 100,000 customers who had to move to the new platform. We’ve talked about combining to a single platform and this is the year that the great migration occurred during the pandemic. We completed this migration in October to a single, modern platform that’s service based and cloud-native. The architecture has made it easy to adapt and upgrade. It’s a single platform that’s prepared to evolve continuously.”
