Case Study: HotelPlanner secures 100,000+ partner bookings with GlobalSign CloudSSL

GlobalSign CloudSSL Secures HotelPlanner.com’s Online Reservation Services for 100k+ Partners

HotelPlanner, a major online travel services provider, faced a significant challenge in managing SSL certificates for its 100,000+ hotel partners. Previously relying on partners to issue and manage their own certificates through Symantec, the process was expensive, cumbersome, and caused deployment delays. They sought a solution from vendor GlobalSign that would allow them to bring SSL administration in-house to save time and resources.

GlobalSign implemented its CloudSSL solution, which empowered HotelPlanner to issue and manage certificates for all partner domains from a single platform. This eliminated the need for partners to handle SSL, requiring only a simple DNS change. The results for HotelPlanner were substantial, saving tens of thousands of dollars annually and approximately 50 hours per year on maintenance, while new domains could be secured within minutes.
