What is GlobeNewswire by Notified?

GlobeNewswire distributes press releases and multimedia content on behalf of thousands of customers every year, including growing businesses, agencies, non-profits, and public companies.

The GlobeNewswire by Notified distribution network and media partners provides expansive reach for news. GlobeNewswire press releases reach 158 countries in 35 local languages, including options from more than 1,000 newslines to target news by geography, industry, and media type. For investor relations professionals, the service provides distribution options for material and financial news distribution, along with regulatory filing solutions.

GlobeNewswire distribution options for financial and material information can be used to meet disclosure and compliance requirements, reach shareholders worldwide and increase visibility among investors. News is disclosed to regulatory authorities, media, analysts, investors and key stakeholders globally.

Boosting Visibility and Engagement with Multimedia

Gone are the days of text-only press releases. Notified's Media Snippets let users embed interactive carousels with infographics, PDFs, audio and video elements - including live streaming events - directly into press releases. Users can add multimedia that drives engagement and visual interest to news. Multimedia materials can also be distributed to AP Photo Express, the CP Photo Network, Newscom Archive, Yahoo! Photo and YouTube.

Full-Service Editorial Support & Translation Services

Typos, broken links, and missed deadlines are not an option for news. The Notified editorial team helps to prepare and distribute news and answer questions along the way. Notified provides 24/7/365 editorial support and can also provide translation services when required.

EDGAR, SEDAR and XBRL Filing

Notified offers solutions to format financial information for accurate filings and help listed companies in the U.S. and Canada to meet disclosure requirements mandated by regulatory agencies in their respective regions. Notified filing specialists provide expert assistance to help meet demanding deadlines.

Analysis & Measurement of the Impact of Releases

Newswire Analytics post-distribution performance reporting helps understand the impact of releases, with measurements of the performance of GlobeNewswire-distributed releases — the number of people who viewed it, social media shares, multimedia engagement, and link click throughs. Newswire Analytics delivers metrics through widgets and live dashboards instead of static reports. Reports are available immediately after a release is published and can be shared.

AI Press Release Generator

GlobeNewswire's AI press release generator helps streamline content creation. Writing a press release from scratch can be daunting and tedious. The GlobeNewswire AI press release generator helps securely draft releases, streamlining content creation. GlobeNewswire's generative AI can create releases and share them using one of the Notified PR distribution networks.

As part of Notified's end-to-end communications solution, full-service GlobeNewswire press release distribution is available within the Notified PR Platform.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We used this service for publishing feature updates and general news about the company. This allowed us to try to spread the word about what we were doing and possibly get into the different major news outlets for general company exposure. The scope of our use case was limited to publishing digital releases in the US.

Pros

The software is in depth
Responses to releases are prompt
Responses by customer service on release questions are prompt

Cons

While detailed and in depth the software is difficult to use, especially for first timers
They changed their name and system several times over the course of the year making it difficult to understand even what system to log into
I never heard from our account representative until it was time for us to cancel

Likelihood to Recommend

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.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Our organization previously used MyMediaInfo to track and report on media coverage for our clients. It was used across our North American offices and allowed us to have a clear view of incoming coverage for our various clients. It would compile everything from print, to online, to broadcast, to social media mentions.

Pros

Allows you to see coverage from numerous sources: print, online, broadcast, etc.
Allows you to track coverage for numerous clients in one organized place.
Allows you to receive incoming coverage via email.

Cons

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.

Likelihood to Recommend

MyMediaInfo is great if you need a solution for media tracking, or a more robust solution for building media lists and tracking coverage. It seems like an affordable option for smaller public relations firms, compared to other services. However, it appears to be missing some of the functionality of competitor services like Cision.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I work at a PR agency. I use Marketwired predominantly to distribute news on behalf of my clients. My clients are from many sectors - retail, telecoms, non-profit, tech etc. I would typically use the news distribution 1-3 times a month. It allowed us to disseminate news and get coverage on some online websites that would be difficult to pitch via email or telephone. I managed several junior members of staff and also set them us and oversaw them using the service.

Pros

It allowed me to get coverage on online websites that I could pitch via telephone or email.
I almost always got 5-8 pieces of coverage for each story distributed. Sometimes it would get picked up via a newspaper and go much wider.
Getting online coverage helps my clients with SEO.

Cons

Marketwired has recently changed its online platform. It is more complex than necessary. I used it many times and still often had to call the help desk for advice. Sometimes there would be 'bugs' in the system that were out of my control and even the help desk struggled to resolve it.
I used to simply email the news release & photos to the help desk and they'd get it out for me on time. It was effective and I appreciated the excellent customer service. Now the help desk are no longer allowed to distribute on a client's behalf, which is frustrating - even if you struggle using the online system.
The section of the online platform I found most confusing was around which media a news story would be distributed too. There are a lot of choices and it wasn't obvious to me as to how they were sub-divided. I often had to check with the help desk to ensure I'd made the best selection for the news story.
The level of customer service has declined. My account manager who previously provided excellent service was moved to another role as part of an internal restructure. Many team members at my agency voiced frustrations with the level of customer care.

Likelihood to Recommend

If you want to guarantee 5-8 pieces of online coverage for a news story, then Marketwired is worth using. It's cost-effective and the news often appears on news syndication sites that wouldn't otherwise feature it (Yahoo Finance, Canadian Business, Bloomsberg etc.).

If you want to get news coverage on the radio, in print, and on TV, then you're still better emailing it directly to the news outlet and picking up the phone. It's much more time-intensive, but a lot more effective.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Marketwired for our press releases to announce each new webinar Xtalks is hosting. This is used by just one department. We receive a small number of people who heard of our events through press releases.

Pros

Easy to use dashboard with pre-selected newslines and industries.
Quite a comprehensive results dashboard that details the outreach of where your releases go.
For non-online releases (they just recently changed this), an editor will call you to verify your releases and they are very detailed in reading your article for any grammatical errors and other recommendations.

Cons

They recently changed that all online releases do not need verification. So there isn't a physical extra person screening the submission.
The topics of our press releases are very industry specific (healthcare and medical) - based on the results dashboard, the newlines and 'corridors' that they are sent out to seems generic and arguably irrelevant.

Likelihood to Recommend

In general, press releases work for timely, sensitive news - I think Marketwired is suited for that as other contacts I know in the industry recommend that they have a wide distribution network. It is less appropriate at times as I see the news is picked up by sites that aren't relevant.
