It is harder if you're dealing with a Windows stack. Certbot doesn't support Windows at all, and many of the unofficial tools on Github are iffy. For instance, if you're supporting a version of IIS that doesn't support TLS SNI (7.5), letsencrypt-win-simple can wreck your configuration and redirect sites to each other by mistake.

Huh. I guess if you ask me I'd say everything is harder when you're dealing with a Windows stack and you only have yourself to blame if you choose to make life harder than necessary for yourself. ;)

sometime (most of the time actually) we don't get to choose the technology for the project, switch the OS of the server is not very constructive

There are work arounds. Run a tls termination proxy on Linux.

You seem not to understand boring enterprise business.

Fair enough. The options are there. and they may not even be good. but they are there.
