Exclaimer vs. Patronum

It is quick and easy to set up new signatures for departments/groups. However, we are on the cheaper plan, so we only get the ability to create ten templates for email signatures. Therefore, when someone needs to tweak a template, we need to be thoughtful of resources. This is great for our parts and sales teams to be able to send deals to customers as they are talking about other products and services.

If you have some pain points that Patronum can help manage and you don't want to directly deal with Google's API's it can be extremely helpful. Similarly, if you have automations such as a required company signature based on aspects like job title and you either have high turnover or people change jobs a lot, the signature management can be worth the whole product all by itself.

• Allows for easily customizing the templates for the signatures.
• Allows uploading custom logos or banners to be applied in the different signatures
• Allows assigning specific signatures to groups of users
• Connects easily with all Google Suite email accounts within the organization

• Exclaimer's campaign rotation feature is not under campaigns and could be more intuitively placed within the platform.
• It would be helpful if they had an infographic to guide not IT but everyday users through initial set up and use. They do have great videos, but the impatient people need an infographic.
• Exclaimer's language in the platform can be a little clunky. It might be good to have it reviewed by Americans and Brits and try and find a happy medium that is relatively intuitive for both.

We are extremely satisfied with overall performance, ease of use, support, affordability, etc. Anytime we have had any questions, the support or sales teams have been very prompt, courteous, and forthcoming in resolving any issues or getting the right information we are looking for to us. That said, I am confident that we will be renewing our subscription.

In the order that I recall the setup process: Signature templates need to be set up (attribute mapping to AD) Office 365 connector needs to be set up (global admin needed and exclaimer engineer for guidance) Signature policies need to be set up (who gets which signatures) Office membership groups need to be setup (who in the org will use exclaimer) Members need to be added to those groups (user membership) Agents need to be deployed on the end-user hosts (local agent)

I have to admit that there has been an odd occasion when the pages have taken a while to load. This is the exception rather than the rule.

I've only had one issue in 7 years where I needed to reach out to Exclaimer for support, but it was handled quickly and resolved my issue. No messing around to provide additional information. Just a quick solution to what I was facing which resolved the issue on the first go around.

Our implementation was relatively easy as we weren't cutting over from anything. We just got the software installed, set up the file share and got active directory set up. We got exsync on a scheduled task and it just worked. We built our templates and policies and it has always been relatively smooth.

365 was one consideration, but the features were quite lacking, and it does not make sense to put all eggs in a single basket, so to speak, when using 365 for other services (such as email). Exclaimer also covers other areas that are not targeted by other platforms. This includes the likes of NPS scoring staff members.

you can easily design more than one signature and spit it among the organisation

• Signatures appear on each email exactly as intended - a banner promoting a specific expo that we are attending and exhibiting at ensure that there is maximum visibility to the optimal audience
• Centralized management on a simple to use platform saves time and frustrations (and potential mistakes) - which is a huge plus for the IT team managing the tool
• dynamic and up-to-date signatures ensure maximum reliability in the organization's email communication medium
