You use Signitic and are considering a change — because the 20-license minimum on its paid plan doesn't match the size of your team, because your data needs to stay in Canada, or simply because billing in euros complicates your budget. This guide lists the real options for replacing Signitic — not just ATOM — and walks through, step by step, how to migrate to ATOM Signatures without interrupting your email.
Which Signitic limits drive a switch?
Five: a 20-license minimum, no Canadian hosting region, billing in euros only, imposed branding on the free plan and an agent to install as a fallback.
- A 20-license minimum. As soon as a team outgrows the 19-user free plan, the paid plan imposes a floor of 20 licenses — a threshold that forces some small Canadian teams to pay for more than they need.
- No Canadian hosting region. Signitic advertises infrastructure that is "100% made and hosted in Europe"; nothing is published for Canada.
- Billing in euros only. With no Canadian-dollar option, your budget depends on the exchange rate and its swings.
- Imposed branding on the free plan. Below 20 licenses, the only option is the free plan: a single template, a single campaign, and Signitic branding visible on every signature.
- A fallback installed agent. For Outlook versions incompatible with its add-in, Signitic offers an agent installed on the workstation — an extra deployment burden to manage device by device.
The alternatives to Signitic
Signitic isn't the only option worth evaluating. Here are the others, with the facts that matter for each.
- ATOM Signatures. A Canadian platform: 100% Canadian hosting, an Outlook add-in with no installation at all (Windows, web, Mac, iOS, Android), targeting by Microsoft 365 groups, users and shared mailboxes, a single price of CAD $1 per user per month, with no license minimum. Fits Canadian organizations exclusively on Microsoft 365. See ATOM pricing.
- CodeTwo. A Polish vendor with a hybrid architecture (server-side relay on Azure, or a client-side add-in) and a marketing suite that includes CRM integrations and conditional logic. Tiered billing in US dollars, a 10-license minimum. Fits organizations that want these advanced marketing features and don't mind USD billing. See ATOM vs CodeTwo.
- Exclaimer. A UK-based vendor with CRM integrations (HubSpot, Salesforce) and multi-brand management, deployable server-side, client-side, or both. Tiered US-dollar pricing (Starter, Standard, Pro), a 10-user minimum. Fits organizations managing several brands or needing deep CRM integrations. See ATOM vs Exclaimer.
- Letsignit. A French company, hosted "100% EU," with digital business cards (vCards) and PowerPoint presentation management on top of signatures; a client-side add-in deployed from the Microsoft 365 admin center, with an optional server-side SMTP connector. Starting at €2 per user per month, billed annually. Fits organizations for whom European hosting isn't a blocker and who want governed vCards and presentations. See ATOM vs Letsignit.
- WiseStamp. A New York-based platform deployable client-side (Outlook add-in, Chrome extension), server-side or hybrid, with an AI designer, banner campaigns and tiers (Basic, Grow, Platform, Enterprise) billed from $19 per month plus $1 per employee per month. Suits a multi-brand organization, or one also on Google Workspace, that values SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certifications and for which Canadian hosting is not a requirement. See ATOM vs WiseStamp.
- Rocketseed. A vendor whose offer relies solely on server-side deployment (Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Exchange), with no add-in to install, a public price grid starting at 50 employees, a one-time setup fee and 24/7 support with a dedicated account manager. Suits an organization of 50 employees or more that wants a turnkey setup and accepts that its outgoing email goes through the vendor's service. See ATOM vs Rocketseed.
- Opensense. A San Francisco platform deployable server-side, through an Outlook add-in or via the Gmail API, with banners, email tracking and integrations (directory, HR, CRM), priced from $1 to $5 per user per month with a $500 monthly minimum; data hosted in the United States by default, optional residency in Europe, Asia or Australia, SOC 2 Type II attestation. Suits a large organization that can absorb the monthly minimum, wants to link signature, email tracking and CRM, and for which US hosting is acceptable. See ATOM vs Opensense.
- Terminus. Email signature marketing (Sigstr) built into an account-based marketing (ABM) platform, with banners that are dynamic by sender, recipient and lifecycle stage; Terminus merged into DemandScience in November 2024 and its signature product pages now redirect to DemandScience's site, with no public price. Suits a B2B marketing team that mainly wants an advertising channel in its employees' emails; confirm with the vendor that the offer is still sold on its own. See ATOM vs Terminus.
- The native Microsoft 365 signature and Exchange transport rules. Free, already included in your subscription, but limited: unreliable images, the signature missing from Sent Items with a transport rule, no fine-grained group targeting, manual maintenance. Fits a very small team with a single, static signature, no logo or targeting. See ATOM vs native Microsoft 365 signature and the Exchange transport rule guide.
Replacing Signitic with ATOM, step by step
- Take inventory of your signature templates and targeting in Signitic: number of templates, active campaigns, and the mailboxes or groups targeted.
- Connect your Microsoft 365 tenant to ATOM Signatures through admin consent, read-only on the directory.
- Recreate your signatures in ATOM's visual editor: use "Import HTML" to start from your Signitic template, then replace its dynamic fields with ATOM tokens (name, title, phone, etc.).
- Reproduce your targeting with ATOM's Microsoft 365 groups, users and shared mailboxes.
- Deploy the ATOM add-in from the Microsoft 365 admin center, with the manifest URL generated in the console's Connections tab, allowing up to 24 hours for propagation.
- At cutover, remove Signitic — uninstall its web add-in, Chrome extension or installed agent depending on the platform your employees use — to avoid showing two signatures.
- Check the rendering on a few accounts, on the web, on desktop and on mobile, before cancelling your Signitic subscription.
What you lose by leaving Signitic
Signitic has real strengths, honestly acknowledged: a free plan for up to 19 users, multi-platform coverage that goes beyond Microsoft 365 (a Chrome extension for Gmail and Google Workspace, Zoho Mail coverage, iOS and Android mobile apps), ISO 27001 certification, and marketing features (campaigns, segmentation, integrations) from the Standard tier up. ATOM Signatures focuses on Microsoft 365 and includes A/B banner campaigns with click statistics, but does not offer CRM integration. ATOM campaigns can be targeted by Microsoft 365 groups and by people, with exclusions.
Comparing Signitic and ATOM in detail
This guide focuses on alternatives and migration, without repeating the criterion-by-criterion table. For a detailed comparison between the two products — hosting, architecture, price, currency — see ATOM vs Signitic.
Frequently asked questions
Can I bring my Signitic templates over to ATOM?
Yes. ATOM's visual editor offers "Import HTML": you paste your Signitic template's code, then replace its dynamic fields with ATOM tokens (name, title, phone, etc.). Targeting by groups, users or shared mailboxes is then reconfigured in the ATOM console.
Do I need to remove Signitic before installing ATOM?
Remove the Signitic add-in, Chrome extension or agent at the moment you activate ATOM for the same accounts, to avoid showing two signatures in the same email. You can migrate group by group: keep Signitic active for accounts not yet switched over.
How long does switching from Signitic to ATOM take?
It mostly depends on how many templates you need to recreate and how complex your targeting is. The technical deployment itself — adding the add-in from the Microsoft 365 admin center — follows Microsoft's stated propagation window, up to 24 hours.
What other alternatives to Signitic exist, besides ATOM?
CodeTwo and Exclaimer offer broader marketing suites (CRM in particular) billed in US dollars with a 10-license minimum; Letsignit adds digital business cards and PowerPoint presentation management, hosted in Europe like Signitic. For the simplest needs, the native Microsoft 365 signature (Exchange transport rule) remains free, with targeting and image-reliability limits.
Replace Signitic with no license minimum. ATOM Signatures manages your Outlook signatures with no installation at all, with 100% Canadian hosting and a price of CAD $1 per user per month.
