Which one is for you
Pick htmlsig if
- Fits if you are a small team that wants click stats on its signatures
- Works for a small shop that needs 3 to 10 signatures built
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you want a free plan, as there is none
- Tight if you have more than 3 people, since Starter caps at 3 signatures and has no generators
- Skip it if you want Google or Microsoft directory sync, as none is listed
- Pricey if you pay monthly, as Starter is $8 a month against $80 for a year
Pick MySignature if
- Fits if you're a freelancer who wants one designed signature with click counts
- Works for a team of up to five that also wants a digital business card for Apple or Google Wallet
Look elsewhere if
- Tight if you're staying free, because the signature carries MySignature branding and its links redirect through MySignature
- Skip it if you have more than five people and want a price up front, as the Teams service isn't priced on the pricing page
- Watch out: the help centre says signatures appear broken in emails once the paid period ends
- Watch out: there's no trial of the plans for up to five, and quarterly billing only starts at 10 users
How we grade them
| 1.6GPAhtmlsigWeak | 2.2GPAMySignatureFair | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | C$80 a year for 3 signatures; a team of five on Plus pays $150 a year, about $2.50 a head a month, against a category middle of $4.50. | CCore is $6 a user a month billed yearly and Connect $7. That's right at this category's dearer quarter of $6, against a middle of $2.33. The Teams service for larger companies has no price on the pricing page. |
| Free plan and trial | FNo free plan and no trial; the FAQ says free signatures were dropped to fight spam. | COne basic signature per email address is free, but it carries MySignature branding and its links redirect through MySignature's site. There's no trial of the small-business plans; a Teams trial is by request. |
| Features | CAn editor, a team dashboard, click analytics, generators, and send and duplicate, but no directory sync in the listing and no generators on Starter. | CAn editor with 100+ templates, click analytics, banners, Gmail open tracking and a wallet business card on Connect. The gaps: the priced plans stop at five people, central deployment is a separate Teams service, and server-side signatures aren't on record. |
| Ease of use | CNo store rating on record. You build the signature yourself and, for a team, connect a directory or collect the staff before it does anything. | CNo app store rating on record. You build the signature in a web editor from templates and install it into each mail program; the Teams service connects to Google Workspace or Microsoft 365 first. |
| Platforms and integrations | CA web app only; the listing names no integrations. | BWeb and a Chrome extension, installing into Gmail, Outlook, Apple Mail, Thunderbird and Yahoo Mail, plus Canva, and Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 import on the Teams service. No desktop or phone app, and no API on record. |

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.
