Switch from Server Mode to Centralized Mode

Switching from Server Mode to Centralized Mode provides a more interactive and user-friendly signature experience. In this mode, the Sigsync Outlook Add-in inserts the signature directly into the email compose window, giving users immediate visibility and allowing permitted edits before sending. This ensures a familiar Outlook experience while maintaining the organization’s branding standards. Centralized Mode is a suitable option for teams that prefer real-time signature preview in Outlook, combined with centralized control of templates and rules.

Steps to Switch from Server Mode to Centralized Mode

  • Login to the Sigsync Dashboard
  • Navigate to the ‘Manage Tenants’ tab, and on the right-hand side, click on ‘Details’ under the Configuration column.
