Import of the certificates that are not issued by our CA so their life cycle can also be monitored from the same console. Possibility of defining groups for certificate life cycle monitoring (and alerting) depending on the organization structure (by certificate template or tag). > > **Cons**: One thing that would make the template setting more visible is the possibility to view template Key usage and Extended key usage directly from CertHat. Hope that wwe will see it in the next update. > > We are very satisfied because CertHat made our certificate management process a lot easier task. Also the support is open to suggestions about functionalities that we think would be useful. ----- ### "CertHat review by user" — 5.0/5 > **Oskar** | *14 December 2021* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy to use, intuitive GUI, fast to use access to all certificates. > > **Cons**: CertHat completely met your company needs. > > Made it easier to issue certificate, to create certificate request.
