Gmail extensions that take your mailbox to the next level

When it comes to email, there have been many brands that lay claims to be the best clients. Some of these are best suited for corporations, some for personal, while others can be used perfectly well for both.

Gmail is synonymous for being an email client that is used for both personal as well as work profiles. As Gmail evolved, the search giant introduced its own browser and created additional plugins that took the best of its email service and made it even better.

There are many plugins out there to get take Gmail to the next level, and we've listed a few for you.

Mailvelope

It is no secret that Gmail has a few security bugs lurking in the background. Google's teams work tirelessly to fix the bugs, but the creators of this plugin give you the extra security when sending emails. Mailvelope adds end-to-end encryption to all your emails, thus assuring that your email is read only by the recipient.

WiseStamp

This easy to set up plugin creates a custom, business card style stamp at the end of every email that you send (or for selected ones). In addition to showing off your credentials with a picture of yourself, the plugin allows you to add links to multiple social network websites as well. Purchasing the plugin gives you access to wider range of features and customizations that are not available in the trial version.
