Why this matters
Server-side signature tools append signatures after the email is sent. Your teammates never see it while composing, which can feel uncomfortable and makes it harder to catch issues. Scribe defaults to client-side installation because it offers a better experience:- What you see is what they get: the signature in the compose window is exactly what the recipient receives
- Greater privacy: emails stay within your email provider and don’t route through external servers
- No sending delays: signatures are already embedded, so there’s no server processing step
- Instant updates: when you update a signature in Scribe, it reflects immediately in your teammates’ compose window
What about mobile?
Client-side installation has limited support on some mobile email apps. If full mobile coverage is a priority, Scribe also offers server-side installation, or you can combine both methods for the best of both worlds.Client-side vs server-side: full comparison
