    Agility PR Solutions is well-suited to finding mentions for a large number of keywords and keeping them organized. As a membership association, this is perfect for us because we are able to track all of our members. We are also able to use it to find up-to-date reporter contacts in the right areas for our media pitches and press releases for both ourselves and members. Scenarios where Agility PR Solutions is not well suited... I haven't really found any yet. I anticipate that if you expected the software to do everything for you, then maybe that would be a problem.

    This service might be more well suited for large corporations with a lot of press coverage that they need to get out on a very regular basis. GlobeNewswire may be much less appropriate for smaller organizations that cannot commit to the annual spend of the contract and adhere to its strict nature and aren't sending out regular releases. Note that they did not work with us on contract flexibility once signed, so just be sure that you will fully utilize the service and really stay on top of the cancellation date because if you miss it, you will be automatically locked in for another year. Thus for smaller companies it will be best to stick to an a-la-carte service that will be flexible and work with you on your changing needs. That is definitely not GlobeNewswire.

    Cons
    Innodata
    • There is a lot of stuff you can do on the website, and it can be challenging to find what you need without asking customer service for help. I'm a person who likes to do things for myself.
    • Sometimes I wish that more of their features were just a part of what was available instead of an upsell. I want to use everything but can afford it.
    • I feel like they upgrade a lot which is great but at the same time, changing the feeling of things makes it feel less familiar.

    • In some cases, it would not capture all coverage, for example, coverage found on trade websites.
    • Some of the incoming coverage would be repetitive or even delayed at times.

    Both Cision and Meltwater were far more expensive but far less user-friendly. In my opinion, they were confusing and support was non-existent.

    We've always used GlobeNewswire because it is consistent and gets the job done well. We've never experimented with other products similar to them.

    Return on Investment
    Innodata
    • We love to be able to share member news, so Agility PR Solutions enables us to do just that. Better! This improves our member engagement, which then improves retention.
    • We are a funded EDA Tech Hub. I use Agility PR Solutions to track both mentions for ourselves so we can share them with the EDA which is important for ratings, but also to track what the other hubs are doing.
    • Agility PR Solutions has had an impact on our media relations because I can now send out a media advisory about a press release to a targeted list instead of just putting out a press release that might never reach anyone.

    • Getting online news coverage is the ROI from using Marketwired.
    • It's a cost-effective way of distributing news, saving companies money and time on distributing every release individually to each news outlet.
