    We have only ever used GlobeNewswire and have had such success that we don't feel the need to evaluate competitors or switch to another solution in over 5 years.

    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.

    Cision appears to have more robust capabilities than MyMediaInfo and for our firm, it made more sense to have our media list building, release distribution and coverage tracking all in one place with Cision. Ultimately, we decided to move our coverage tracking to Cision. Cision …

    In 2016, I did an evaluation of other news distribution websites to see how they compared. While Marketwired has its flaws with customer service and a less-than-ideal online platform, it was far more cost-effective than the competitors.

    A lot of the competitors were more …

    I find Marketwired comparable to slightly better than CNW and Business Wire. For smaller companies listed on the TSX Venture, CSE or OTC, their money is better spent on TheNewswire.com.

    We have found both marketwired and Business Wire to be very similar - our use for each typically depends on the client or target audience. (Business Wire seems to fit better for our more financial-type clients.)

    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
    Notified
    • In some cases, it would not capture all coverage, for example, coverage found on trade websites.
