Description
Client-Side signatures mean that signatures are synchronized to the users' computers for use in Microsoft Outlook. When messages are sent from Outlook, they are sent directly via Microsoft 365 and are not routed to Exclaimer for processing.
Exclaimer uses the Outlook Add-in feature for configuring Client-Side signatures. This is an application that can be centrally deployed to Microsoft Outlook and allows any user to add email signatures created within Exclaimer while composing the email. For more information, see how to use the Exclaimer Cloud Outlook Add-in.
