You do more than that but really the CA should handle alerts about expiring certificates. They have full knowledge of all certificates, and contact to the responsible party.
though i do wonder if "this is a feature, not a company"?

And only 25 for enterprise? Our midsize business is currently using 416 certs.
I think you're trying to solve a non-problem since the company that sells the certificates warns you (sometimes even more than those intervals), afterall, they want you to renew as well. As for checking for quality, that should be the sys admin task or the webmaster. good luck though!
Perhaps a non-problem for startups, but it's definitely a problem for bigger companies where the group that purchases certs may not be the one using them...
Have >25 certs? Add this check to Nagios: http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Plugins/Network-Protoco...
Saved you $200/month :)
$10 a month for one certificate seems kind of expensive, considering a script with openssl can do the same thing for free. And only 25 for enterprise? Our midsize business is currently using 416 certs.
Unless those include SMIME certs, but still...
Cool idea. I had the same idea back when Heartbleed was in full swing. Nice to see that someone has actually executed the idea. Bravo!
In any case, very nice execution on the front end. Good job.

I would think that bigger companies would use dedicated IT staff over a start-up for something crucial like SSL cert checking.
That said, I wouldn't pay for a service like this from a random person, I'd have my registrar do it (MarkMonitor or similar -- that's why they're paid the big bucks).

Can I ask how you've created 416 certificates for a mid size company? Holy shit, lol. Unless those include SMIME certs, but still...
Their monitoring includes SSL cert validity, among many other things.
