Making Every Email Count: Smarter Signature Management in Microsoft 365

Modern organizations trust email not only as a communication tool, but as a powerful branding and engagement channel. Every email they send tells a story about their brand, professionalism, and attention to detail. Many businesses struggle to deliver consistent, polished email signatures across all users, devices, and platforms, especially when using Microsoft 365.

Native Tools Make the Problem Worse

Native tools in Microsoft 365 fall short when it comes to centralized, large-scale management. Although Microsoft 365 offers some built-in functionality, it does not provide a reliable or centralized way to update email signatures company-wide.

Limitations Inherent in Microsoft 365

When it comes to native technologies in Microsoft 365, the list of email signature management limitations is extensive – but some of the most common ones are:

  • Images cannot be embedded in email signatures.
  • Signatures cannot be inserted directly under the latest email reply or forward. 
  • No formatting is included by default.
  • Lines that contain variables that can't be updated cannot be skipped.
  • No way to test email signatures in advance.
  • Signatures are not consistent across all devices.

ExSign to the Rescue

ExSign for Microsoft 365 eliminates these restrictions, offering true centralized control.
