Google Workspace in new UI with additional features
Affects

Users
All users
Description
This release brings exciting news - customers using Exclaimer with Google Workspace now have a new user interface (UI) and access to additional features.
The new UI makes it easier and more intuitive to set up and use Exclaimer, saving you time and helping more teams within your organization to self-serve when creating or updating email signatures.
Some new features available within the Google Workspace new UI:
- Editors can now perform data syncs - Anyone with an ‘Editor’ role can now sync with your backend infrastructure instead of this functionality being limited to ‘Admin’ user roles only.
- Limit the scope of synchronizations - Propagate directory changes faster by selecting a specific group of users to sync rather than all users.
- Folder permissions and security - Organize your signatures into folders and specify permissions to control which users can access which folder. For example, only higher-level admins or managers can access and edit company-wide signatures.
- Bulk updates for signatures - Make bulk changes to signatures in a spreadsheet; for example, adding user photos or pronouns. Upload using the User Details Upload feature to save time making individual edits.
Customers using Exclaimer with Google can now also add new features to their subscriptions, including the ability to get instant feedback, enhance marketing options, and track signature engagement. Please reach out to your Customer Success representative for more information.
We’ve updated our support documentation to reflect these changes within the new UI.
The Google Workspace configuration consists of the following sections:
- Connect to Google: This covers all the options to help you successfully configure your Exclaimer Cloud - Signatures for Google Workspace subscription.
-
Manage User Data: This covers all the options to help you manage user contact details and user data in a signature.
-
Manage Mail Flow: This covers all the options to help you manage your mail flow setup.
- Gmail Signatures: This covers the option to help synchronize your signatures to Gmail.
Once you've set up your subscription, you can easily enable your signatures for your Google Workspace subscription.

Description
Today we’re excited to unveil the exciting future of Exclaimer. Our brand new website is live alongside a new look and feel for Exclaimer.
In addition, we have launched Exclaimer Signature Marketing Cloud, a new solution that will allow you to further exploit the marketing potential of your email signatures, unlocking further means to use email signatures as a digital communications channel.
You can upgrade to the Exclaimer Signature Marketing Cloud and gain access to new advanced scheduling options, the ability to rotate through promotional banners and innovative means to manage user information. Additionally, you will benefit from analytics dashboards to track the effectiveness of your email signature strategy, including insight into campaign performance. In a global first, this solution also allows you to quantify the monetary value of email signature campaigns using the new Exclaimer Signature Equivalent Advertising Value metric.
Alongside the Exclaimer Signature Marketing Cloud, we are launching two Power Ups, the Exclaimer Signature Appointments Power Up and the Exclaimer Signature Feedback Power Up.
The Exclaimer Signature Appointments Power Up allows you to drag and drop a meeting booking button into your designs. These buttons allow your recipients a convenient opportunity to schedule meetings, phone calls and demonstrations with your staff, accessing their real-time availability in the process.
The Exclaimer Signature Feedback Power Up makes it easy to add surveys to your email signatures and use them to gather real-time feedback. Including these 1-click surveys allows customer experience leaders to accurately measure CSAT and NPS with higher response rates than alternatives helping to achieve sales, support and customer retention objectives. Better yet, real-time email alerts make it easy to action every piece of feedback with an appropriate response to the benefit of the customer.

Exclaimer Cloud - Send on Behalf
Affects
Exclaimer Cloud - Signatures for Microsoft 365
Users
All users
Description
You can now apply the signature of the individual you are sending on behalf of to your email messages - when signatures are applied using server-side. This is useful in situations where receptionists or admin staff are responsible for sending emails on behalf of others.
Previously, Exclaimer Cloud read and applied signatures based on the address in the Sender header; these messages always had the signature appended of the person actually sending the email.
Now, with the Send on Behalf option enabled, Exclaimer Cloud will look at the From header which contains the address of the user (or group/shared mailbox) for whom the email is being sent on behalf of. This results in the signature assigned to this mailbox being applied, generated using the user details for that mailbox.

Exclaimer Cloud Editor role

Users
All users
Description
We have been working hard, behind the scenes, to refine the Admin and Editor roles in the new UI. This is to make it easier for you to navigate and it provides an important step towards self-service.
When working with Exclaimer Cloud, there are two types of users to consider:
-
Admin: These users can view and edit all folders and signatures; they can also add new folders and grant/remove folder access for editors.
-
Editor: These users cannot view/perform the configuration options and can only access signatures that are:
- in the root folder (assuming that the root folder is set for global access) and
- within folders to which they have been granted access.
Although all configuration sections, signatures and folders are displayed; but, if you are signed in as an Editor you will see a banner, at the top, with a message that some of the options are not available and can only be modified by an Exclaimer Cloud Administrator. For more information on permissions, please see the Difference between Editors and Admin?
