3 challenges

  • The discrepancy of email signatures: before the adoption of Sigilium, email signatures were not standardized. Each employee used a different signature, which harmed the professional image of the company. This diversity of signatures could also lead to errors and inconsistencies in contact information.

  • Onboarding new employees: new employees struggled to install and update their email signatures. This manual process often caused confusion and frustration, especially for those who were not comfortable with technical procedures.

  • Reducing technical support: many calls were received regarding issues related to email signatures. These calls took time and valuable resources, diverting the communications team from their main tasks.

Solution

  • Looking for and selecting Sigilium: Arpej chose Sigilium after comparing several providers through online articles. The articles highlighted the pros and cons of different solutions, which helped Arpej make an informed choice. Sigilium stood out for its automation features and easy integration with Microsoft 365.

  • Email Signature Automation: Sigilium allows Arpej to manage and automatically deploy email signatures for all employees. This automation ensures that all signatures are uniform and up to date, without requiring manual intervention from employees.

  • Integration with Microsoft 365: signatures are synchronized with the internal directory, ensuring total uniformity. This integration also allows automatic contact information updates, thereby reducing errors and inconsistencies.

  • Responsive and Educational Support: The Sigilium team provided a clear methodology and responsive support to simplify the adoption of the tool. They took the time to explain the features in a simple and non-technical manner, which helped Arpej quickly accustom to the solution.

About

Motul is a French industrial company that designs, develops, and distributes lubricants for engines (two-wheelers, automobiles, and other vehicles) aimed at the consumer market (BtoC). The international group also develops cutting-edge products and expertise for industry through its MotulTech activity (BtoB).

Soon after the creation of Sigilium, the Motul teams adopted the synchronized email signature service to ensure uniformity in the brand image conveyed to all group stakeholders.

With a significant challenge: as Motul is present in many countries, it needed a very simple tool with automated management and native integration with its messaging tools.

Accompany the change of messaging system

Motul has centralized the management of its email signatures with Sigilium since 2015. This is for all of its subsidiaries located around the world. The initial deployment of the email signatures was done on Google Workspace in an automated manner. All users were using Gmail for their email.

Switching from Gmail to Outlook

Following a decision by the IT teams, all users have transitioned to the Microsoft environment, and thus to Outlook on PC (and on Mac for some users).

A seamless transition

Developed for numerous messaging and CRM solutions, Sigilium has allowed IT teams to switch between environments seamlessly for user email signatures.

Specifically,

  • The centralized management platform remained the same for the Marketing teams.

  • The heavy changes initiated by IT were able to be carried out progressively, without impacting either the design of the signatures or the centralized dissemination of campaigns.

  • During the transition period, email signatures were updated on Gmail and Outlook.


    Advantages of the Sigilium approach

    Sigilium offers native integration on Outlook, with or without a Microsoft 365 license. The installation is done at the email client level only. This allows for easy management of signatures even in a heterogeneous messaging environment, as is the case during the transition from one system to another.

Challenges

  • Optimize the onboarding of new employees : Planity regularly integrates between 10 and 15 new employees each month. The company sought to reduce the time spent on these integrations while ensuring the consistency of email signatures from day one.

  • Standardize the brand image : before using Sigilium, email signatures varied from one department to another: non-standardized formats, unoptimized images. Planity needed a solution to centralize and normalize this essential part of its communication.

  • Simplify technical management : incompatibilities with certain devices, such as iPads and iPhones, complicated the management of signatures. Sigilium needed to address these technical challenges while facilitating the synchronization of signatures.
