Ask HN: For a startup which SSL certificate authority would you recommend & why?

I am trying to find a trusted & not too expensive SSL certificate authority with wild card support for multiple subdomains.

This is what I found so far:

DigitCert - Seems to be a good option. Their support & ratings seems quite good based on reviews. $595 for their unlimited wildcard plus certificate.

Thawte - Comparatively higher price compared to Digicert. Not sure how their support is.

Verisign - Submitted request to find which plan of theirs supports wild card certification.

Comodo - Cheaper but several issues were reported even recently in HN few months back - especially the issue in Iran where their Private key was released.

Godaddy - We do not want to go near it anyway.

Your recommendations for any good providers who are priced much lower for startups will be very helpful. Thanks!
