Which one is for you
Pick CodeTwo if
- Fits if your company is on Microsoft 365 and wants signatures on mail sent from phones
- Works for IT teams that also set company-wide out-of-office replies
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you're on Google Workspace, which its product page doesn't mention
- Not for you if you want a free plan, as there's only the 14-day trial
- Watch out: we couldn't confirm a price, because CodeTwo's site turned our reader away with a bot check
- Watch out: it's managed in a browser console, with no app beyond the Outlook add-in
Pick WiseStamp if
- Fits if you want one signature on personal Gmail or Outlook.com and don't mind a WiseStamp line under it
- Works for small teams on Google Workspace or Microsoft 365 that want new hires' signatures installed for them
Look elsewhere if
- Tight if you're staying free, as the free signature only works on personal webmail and carries WiseStamp branding
- Pricey if you want banner campaigns and click tracking, which start on Grow at $49 a month plus $1 a person
- Pricey if you need signatures on phones with no setup: server-side signatures need Platform at $189 a month plus seats
- Watch out: Basic, Grow and Platform have a 3-seat minimum, and the prices shown are billed yearly
- Watch out: the pricing page's FAQ says there's no free version, while the help centre describes the Free plan in detail
How we grade them
| 2.0GPACodeTwoFair | 2.4GPAWiseStampFair | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | CNo price is on record. CodeTwo's pricing page turned our reader away with a bot check, so the listing holds no figure to set against this category's middle of $2.33 a month, and a tool with no price we could read sits at C. | CPro+ is $9 a month billed yearly for one person, plus $2 for each added member, so a team of five pays $17, about $3.40 a head. That's above this category's middle of $2.33 and under the dearer quarter at $6. Banners start on Grow at $49 plus $1 a person. |
| Free plan and trial | CNo free plan, only a 14-day trial with no credit card needed. | CFree gives one person one signature on the standard template, with a WiseStamp line under it, and only on personal webmail like Gmail, not a company domain. Company plans get a 14-day trial with no card. |
| Features | CCloud and Outlook signatures, Entra ID rules, company-wide autoreplies, banner campaigns and one-click surveys. It does that job fully, but only for Microsoft 365: its product page doesn't mention Google Workspace. | BA signature studio, Google Workspace and Entra sync with auto-install, extension, add-in or server-side deployment, banners with click tracking, surveys and disclaimer rules. Nothing in the job is missing, but it's spread over Basic, Grow and Platform. |
| Ease of use | CNo app store rating on record. An admin sets it up in a browser console and rolls the Outlook add-in out from the Microsoft 365 admin center, with rules built on Entra ID fields. | CNo app store rating on record. You build the signature in the studio and install it through the Chrome extension, Outlook add-in or desktop app, and company plans mean connecting Google Workspace or Microsoft Entra first. |
| Platforms and integrations | CMicrosoft 365 only: a browser console plus an Outlook add-in that runs on Windows, Mac, the web, iOS and Android. Outside Microsoft, the connections on record are Calendly and Google Analytics. | BWeb, a desktop app for Mac and Windows and a Chrome extension, with Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Exchange, HubSpot, Salesforce and others. No phone app: signatures reach phones with no setup only server-side, on Platform. |
| Best for | signatures and autoreplies across Microsoft 365 | signatures for one person or a small company |

Key features
CodeTwo
- Cloud and Outlook signatures
- Signatures are added in the cloud after sending, so mail from any client or phone gets one, or by an Outlook add-in as people type. Either mode or both can be used.
- Outlook add-in deployed centrally
- The Outlook add-in, which runs in Outlook on Windows, Mac, the web, iOS and Android, is rolled out from the Microsoft 365 admin center with no install by staff.
- Entra ID placeholders and rules
- Signatures pull names, titles and photos from Microsoft Entra ID, and rules pick a signature by sender, recipient or user attributes.
- Organization-wide autoreplies
- Sets company-wide automatic replies and out-of-office messages from the same browser console.
- Campaigns and surveys
- Schedule marketing banners with tagged links for web analytics, and add one-click customer satisfaction surveys to signatures.
- Data kept in Azure regions
- Mail is relayed through Azure-hosted services, and settings can be kept in a chosen Azure region; CodeTwo says it does not store emails.
WiseStamp
- Signature studio and AI designer
- Build a signature in a drag-and-drop editor from templates, or have the AI designer draft one from a prompt or logo. The AI designer is not on the Free plan.
- Directory sync and auto-install
- Connects to Google Workspace or Microsoft Entra to add new hires, keep names and titles current and install signatures without each person doing it.
- Client-side and server-side deployment
- Signatures go out through the Chrome extension, an Outlook add-in or the desktop app, or from the server on Platform and Enterprise so they apply on every device.
- Banner campaigns and analytics
- From Grow, schedule clickable banners in staff signatures and track impressions and clicks. Branded short links carry UTM tags.
- Surveys in the signature
- Embed one-click NPS, CSAT or custom surveys in signatures and have AI Insights summarize the answers. Platform can import results from other survey tools.
- Rules and disclaimers
- Lock legal disclaimers by department or region and send a shorter signature on replies and forwards. Targeting rules start on Grow.

More comparisons
How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
