Why Certifier is the smarter choice for credentialing

Real native integrations

Unlike Sertifier, Certifier connects natively with Google Sheets, Excel, HubSpot, Salesforce, and more to automate credentialing from your data.

100% control over credentials design

Sertifier’s builder is restrictive. Certifier’s is powerful and precise, letting you design credentials that reflect your brand and stand out visually.

SSO login for secure access

While Sertifier has no SSO option, Certifier enables secure logins with Okta, SAML SSO, and Microsoft Entra ID for centralized access and compliance.
