Why Google Workspace teams choose Firma over CodeTwo
- Google Workspace–first, not an afterthought. CodeTwo's heritage is Microsoft 365 and Exchange. Firma is built for Google Workspace from day one, so Gmail deployment is the core experience, not a secondary integration.
- Self-serve setup, no IT project. Install from the Google Workspace Marketplace and deploy to your whole team without a lengthy IT configuration.
- A real free plan and transparent pricing. Free for up to 2 users, then simple per-seat pricing from $1.50/user/month with no seat minimum.
- Less to manage. A focused product surface for one platform means faster adoption and fewer moving parts.
If your organization runs primarily on Microsoft 365 or Exchange and you need server-side signature stamping, CodeTwo's Microsoft-native depth is the safer choice. Firma is purpose-built for Google Workspace teams.
