New Outlook signature sync feature reveals what’s at stake with email

A Common Issue: Email Signatures Out of Sync

It’s a problem we have all faced at one time or another: you or one of your employees download Outlook onto a shiny new work computer, phone, or home desktop, and everything is there just as you left it: except your email signature.

Naturally, this results in one of three things:

1. A call with IT
2. Wasting time setting up the signature (if you know how!)
3. Sending emails without a signature

For your business, these actions result in lost time, inconsistent branding, or both.

The First Step to a Solution

As a ‘Preferred Microsoft Partner’ we were excited to be asked to assist the R&D teams at Microsoft to solve this issue. We are thrilled that Outlook PC users will now have their email signatures automatically synchronize across any desktop computers they use.

The Bigger Picture: What Your Business Still Needs

Email signatures are more than just contact information, they are part of your branding and marketing strategies.

While this new functionality is a huge step in the right direction from Microsoft, there are still multiple problems your business will face regarding email signatures:

1. Syncing signatures outside of Outlook for Windows: The new functionality will not yet help users who use Outlook Online, Outlook Mobile, or Outlook for Mac.
2. Managing your employees: Every time brand guidelines change or a promotion occurs, the new signature still needs to be uploaded manually by each employee.
