Jonathan Ritchie, Group IT Manager"Very impressed with the whole package, from the sales, design, installation and support offered by Officeaddon.
Emailsignature - First class assistance from the dedicated team member Dave Culley. Managed to change over 120 Users at the click of a button.
A seamless approach to what can be a complicated task. Highly Recommended."
Phil Smith, Director"When a client glibly said in an email to set up automatic signatures for the staff so that these are all uniform and centrally managed, I thought (equally glibly) "Fine! Knock that off later. Check out my friend Mr Google for a few ideas…" The reality is that there are many people talking about it on the net and very few clear crisp answers that address everything. By everything, I mean: -
Dave Eagle, IT Manager"The eMailSignature software has helped us achieve a more consistent brand image to our customers, suppliers and staff in keeping with an ambitious professional services firm. It is flexible enough to allow some variation to accommodate any special requests within the branding guidelines. The IT team have found it easy to administer and it has now gained acceptance across the firm and eliminated the many 'creative' variations on email signatures we found previously."
Ronnie van de Laak, IT Manager"I had been battling with the branding option for our corporate email signature for some time until I discovered eMailSignature (4.9.2).
Out of all the other products out there, this just seemed to tick all the boxes.
The convincing point for me was the demo, which went flawlessly (in fact I inadvertently applied it to everyone via the AD GPO) and by the time I had realised,
everyone had a corporate signature when they logged in! All that remained was purchasing the license (which was quick and easy).
The support I received was absolutely brilliant in this case.
In the past, the headache of maintaining a standard signature was constant. The biggest issue was the logo (that big red X in its place was a plague)
which was a massive overhead to manage for each problem user. eMailSignature has removed all the woes (all tickets on email signatures were closed within an
hour after I finished the install). Compatibility issues between html, rich text, etc, are all put to rest ….
Permanently! I would advise anyone who is thinking of using email signatures to try this product out. The central administration is just too simple to believe!
And just in case you are wary about demos and that test-to-live environment, don't be … because the safety net of picking up the phone and actually talking
to someone at the other end was brilliant. I just upgraded to version 5.0.0 half an hour ago and guess what? Seamless!
I cannot recommend it enough and I look forward to trying out the extra modules when I get some time.

Steve Chamberlain, I.T. Manager"Following our re-branding exercise in December 2007, we needed a professional look for our email communications, and also needed to standardise on a format. The eMailSignature application was easy to understand and deploy and required a minimum amount of time to administer. With its' Active Directory integration it is very easy to make amendments from a central location, eliminating the very time consuming need to visit numerous individual workstations."
"Version 5.0.0 is even better!"
Andrew Watson, IT Desktop Systems Co-ordinator"We finally did the rebranding on the weekend and I had a chance at last to use this product live.
It was fantastic, I am over the moon with this. I've saved me so much time using this. You don't know how excited I was see this project roll out so smoothly.
As a IT tech it took me roughly a day to setup, prep and test. After that it did all the work itself, we even had our CFO saying how impressed she was.
Our board eyeballs and scrutinises anything and everything that we spend but I can quote that our CFO she said that "its allready paid for itself" so far after using it for 3 days,
we have never had coments from the company like that before and they are really interested to start using the campaign module.
Before we use to create the signature like the one attached in photoshop using psd file etc. I've probably saved over 1-2hrs for every for about 90 users,
and all the post crap that comes with adjusting errors and making personal preference changes. Its also fixed a on going issue compatiblity that mdaemon mail server has with lotus notes.
Before lotus would strip attachments from users who used the mdaemon outlook connector client because it didn't like in-line graphics in the mine code.
Now we've put the main logo on our public website and created a non embeded web link graphic and its now bypasses an issue we've had ongoing for two years."
Richard Hartley, IT Manager"We were looking for a tool that would enable us to bring a consistent and professional look to our outgoing email communications. At the same time, we needed to make sure that essential contact details were included in our communications and that the administration did not add to our support team’s already busy workload. With full integration with Active Directory, eMailSignature proved to be the ideal solution."
"eMailSignature has enabled us to standardise the look of our outgoing email communications and apply our “house style” in a way which is transparent to end users yet simple for the IT team to administer."
Tim Knight, IT Manager"We found eMailSignature by OfficeAddOn to be an extremely useful tool in enabling us to standardise and make our email signatures throughout the company to be much more corporate using our logos."
"It is flexible to use, set up and maintain, it helps prevent users altering the layout, and also enables us to run campaigns for various users within our organisation."
Chris Tolkien, Head of Information and Communications Technology"We were looking for a centrally managed solution that allowed us to have a standardised signature. Other considerations included the ability to retain the logo in the mail so that the quality was retained even when the recipient was offline. EMailSignature provided this wish list, with the added benefit that the support has been very good."
Paul Bentley, Network & Desktop Administrator"We were aiming to achieve 2 objectives. Firstly, to standardise Outlook signatures across the company and secondly, to attach a Guinness World Record to the end of the signatures that would automatically change everyday. EmailSignature was the best application on the market to meet our demands."
"Despite the complicated nature of the project, the deployment was made easy with the simple user interface of the application coupled with expert technical support from Office Add-on."
Colin Crawford, IT Manager"eMailSignature proved to be invaluable in helping us to standardise our email signatures. Using Active Directory, we have been able to make the process of applying our corporate email signature a painless exercise. As part of a much larger group of companies, the process of applying different signature styles depending on which company within the group an individual belongs, was a constant pain. Using eMailSignature, this is now a breeze."
David Holman, Senior Systems Administrator"We recently implemented eMailSignature across our organisation and have found it extremely useful for managing our signature policy across hundreds of users, particularly those in remote locations. We have been particularly impressed with the support offered through the web forums, helping us fine-tune the application to our needs and troubleshooting problems that arise. We are now looking forward to exploring the potential of the email campaign functionality."
Neil Jordan, IT Manager"In looking for an effective solution to the problem of standardising email signatures, it was essential that a number of features needed to be found:
The software needed to prevent administrators or users having to try and format each machine individually so that the signature was of a standard format;
The information it contained needed to always be correct, and updated immediately when required; It needed to be such that the user could see the signature before the email was sent;
We also wanted to reduce the impact of adding in new software for Outlook to use as an add-in.
The only solution that seemed to fulfil all these requirements was eMailSignature. By the time we added the benefit of having marketing messages in addition to the standard
information, timed to start and finish when we want, and the ability to set a standard font for emails, we cannot see anything that would be better for us.
The Technical Support system makes you feel that you are actually being listened to and are treated as a valuable client."
John Schmidt, IT Manager"Design and general information are handled by the communication department, but each individual user can update the information himself, for example if the user gets a new mobile phone number or extension number. However, it is important to point out that the individual user cannot add additional information, but can only deselect information or deselect the signature completely. This may be of relevance for an administrative employee in the social services department, who may want to be anonymous in relation to the client." - Continue ...
