VERDICT

Should I use CertifyMe?

Verifiable digital credential software for institutions - certifyme.online

Depends. Buy if you run a university, bootcamp, or training program issuing many certificates that need to be verifiable and shareable. Skip it if you issue a handful of certificates a year — a PDF template and spreadsheet cost nothing.

Confidence

Medium. Based on ~20 public sources; many review snippets were truncated, limiting quote depth.
